Resolution: A Cinephonic Rhapsody for the Soul

In this episode of the Filmmaker Mixer Podcast, we sit down with directors Ryan Hartsell and Scott Berman to discuss their visionary project, Resolution: A Cinephonic Rhapsody for the Soul, a cinematic journey that fuses music and storytelling in collaboration with The Polyphonic Spree. Set to the band’s album Salvage Enterprise, the film is a sensory and emotional experience that explores themes of resilience, renewal, and transformation. Hartsell and Berman walk us through how this genre-blurring piece came to life—from the deep integration of sound and visuals to the creative risks of pushing cinematic form into something more immersive and soulful.
