We are joined on this episode by director, producer and screenwriter Jill Gevargizian who sits down to chat with Giles Alderson & Dom Lenoir about her brilliant directorial debut the clever horror film 'The Stylist' and how she turned it from a short into a full-length feature film.
Jill talks about learning how to trust your crew and how you must have your vision locked in.
We talk crowd funding and how to raise the finance when you are on a very tight budget.
Jill also dives into her method on how to organise a shoot, adjusting to making a feature, how the editing process went and gives some amazing advice on how to go about making your first ever film.
We hope you enjoy this weeks podcast and remember you too can go out there and make your vision a reality.
