Listen Later

Producer, Director and screenwriter, Lee Chambers joins Giles Alderson (The Dare) and Christian James (Fanged Up) to talk about his new indie movie The Pineville Heist.
Made for 100k and a lot of help from local crew and nearby locations in Cananda, Lee set out to make his debut feature film and came across a whole heap of problems.

We chat about his award winning short film Hugh Jackman Saves the World, His time helping out on a movie LVJ, which was Giles' first ever feature film and the how the same DoP worked on both films. Casting a named talent (BooBoo Stewart) and heaving to re-cast due to time.
Questioning yourself on set and working creatively with your cinematographer and how sometimes it's ok to tell people to fuck off.
