Revisited: Filmmaking and Fatherhood: Five Years Later
To kick off 2025, Talkhouse Film is revisiting some of its favorite pieces of the previous 12 months, including this one. Happy new year! – N.D. Ten days after my first child was born, I flew to Austin for the premiere of my fourth feature film, Relaxer, at SXSW. Coming back two days later, I felt like I’d been gone for two months. For the duration of Relaxer’s festival run, I was mostly an absent director.

Filmmaking and Fatherhood: Five Years Later
Ten days after my first child was born, I flew to Austin for the premiere of my fourth feature film, Relaxer, at SXSW. Coming back two days later, I felt like I’d been gone for two months. For the duration of Relaxer’s festival run, I was mostly an absent director. When the film was released theatrically in 2019, I wrote a piece for the Talkhouse called Filmmaking and Fatherhood: Year One.
The Alchemist Cookbook (SXSW Review)
The Alchemist Cookbook feels something like the fix you'd get from siphoning arsenic fumes in a weather sealed garage. The ensuing spell subsists off of a sick, unsettling hypnosis. An 'out of body' hallucination triggered by a near-death experience — triggered by toxins. This hypnotic parable befalls a hermit in the woods; a boyish man named Sean (Ty Hickson) who chugs perilous poisons (processed food and drink and gnarly concoctions) until the venom strains through him.
SXSW Review: Relaxer
“Relax!” A smoking skeleton beseeches us with every indicting phalange of its pointer finger. This, on a poster adorning the walls of Cam’s cubic man cave, which would read plain if they weren’t stained with the hieroglyphics of man’s idiocracy — puerile scrawl, Bart Simpson sketches, and soda blotches — appreciates the principal tenant of relaxation: decay. There is no calm without rot, no chill without acetone.

Underrated/Overlooked: Joel Potrykus on Dragged Across Concrete
There are three ways to read this line of dialogue. Depending on your reading, it probably indicates which side of the fence you fall when it comes to Dragged Across Concrete and writer-director S. Craig Zahler. Mel Gibson plays world-worn detective Brett Ridgeman, who’s tailing a suspect van with his partner, Vince Vaughn’s Anthony Lurasetti. The van heads into a parking garage that’s littered with construction signs.
Filmmaking and Fatherhood: Year One
A couple of years ago, I went legit. Got my MFA, landed a full-time film school teaching gig, bought a house, and had a baby boy with my longtime girlfriend/producer/partner, Ashley. Punk slacker filmdude, my ass. We named him Solo. (Depending on whether you ask Ashley or me, it may or may not be a Star Wars reference.) Solo turned one a few days ago. He had a blast at the party, but for me, it felt like a personal celebration of just keeping a person alive for a full 12 months.
Moviemaker Melee: Joel Potrykus and Nathan Silver Debate the Pros of Cons of Big City and Small Town Moviemaking
Should you live and work in a big city or a small town? Should you stick close to your native geography, or build a new creative home elsewhere? We invited two indie moviemakers—Relaxer writer-director Joel Potrykus and Watch Me Drown writer-director Nathan Silver—to debate the pros and cons. Joel Potrykus (JP): Michigan is the only place where I know how to make movies. I couldn’t do it in any other place. In all the other cities I lived in, it was totally impossible.
Fear and Loathing in Grand Rapids: Joel Potrykus on Managing Anxiety While Making Relaxer | Filmmaker Magazine
Joel Potrykus (center) on the set of Relaxer (courtesy of Oscilloscope Laboratories) We were a week away from principal photography on my fourth feature film, Relaxer, and I wanted to run away. Production designer Mike Saunders and I had been building our apartment set inside his parents’ two-car garage, and things were taking too long. The entire shoot was to happen in that garage, so it had to be perfect. It didn’t look like it’d ever be ready, and I was stressing hard. My stomach burned.
