How to make a period War movie for 80K with the team behind indie film Lancaster Skies


Listen Later

This week we are joined by the team behind brilliant indie film Lancaster Skies. Giles Alderson (The Dare, World of Darkness) sits down with director Callum Burn, Producer Andy Burn, Cinematographer Sam Parsons and actor Kris Saddler to chat how they made their World War II epic

We talk about their backgrounds, how they became filmmakers and their journey to Lancaster Skies

We ask why they shot Lancaster skies in 5 blocks and all for only £80k. How they built miniatures and the the inside of a spitfire to create the look they wanted .

We talk to Sam about having very little money for lights. And how to use the budget in the best way you can to light the scene.

How it is important that all filmmakers have to step up to be a film business and make the film to sell and how you can actually make money .
