It isn't every day you get to pop down to the local pub and chat about film, unless it's Wednesday at the Arrogant Frog. There you'll find a collection of film nuts and crew members talking shop and networking for their projects. It's an ever expanding, tight knit group that owes its interconnectivity to one Max Brudvig.

Max is a midwest local with a passion for filmmaking, expressed through his commercial and music video work, who took the plunge on creating a breeding ground for connectivity in the Chicago film community.
Throughout this interview, we speak about the creation of CFS, our mutual experience in the UW film scene, and Max's future plans.
