Fiction Foundry Podcast

It's been 2 weeks. The universe has continued to expand, the Earth has travelled 22.4 million miles further around the Sun, and Ben has another cough.  But the big question this week is 'are we better off as film-makers in the digital age, or have we lost something?'.  Have a listen to our thoughts...

After a 3 year break, we pick up right where we left off.  It's like we never even left :-)  Chatting about what we have been up to, latest productions we have been working on, and some top tips on how to pitch your film idea.

Topical conversation by director and producer team as they transition from making shorts to making features.

After nearly 6 months away from the Podcast wheel, Ben and Phil bring you an interim podcast catching you up with whats been happening at the Foundry.  It's a short one too so your ears won't melt!

Ben and Phil are joined by special guest Phil Wood.  Discussing how he has worked his way up and the pitfalls to avoid, along with sound advice from this cinematographer who has recently had a film short-listed at the Oscars.

Phil and Ben discuss techniques to hone your script and give it the zing it needs! Housekeeping and banter ensues as usual!

The end of 2013 and the start of a new year full of resolutions and fresh ideas.  Happy 2014 people!

Phil and Ben discuss how to go about researching your next script, and how this can be the bedrock of your story. Plus some insight into working on large commercial shoots.  Usual banter, character assassination and ridicule as usual.

Ben and Phil are joined this week by John, Will and Richard - key members of their conceptual art team who are busy designing the look and feel of the upcoming sci-fi.  Chat, insight and banter ensues.  Enjoy!
