Making a hit Indie Mockumentary on a micro-budget with When the Screaming Starts Team Conor Boru, Octavia Gilmore & Dom Lenoir


Listen Later

Yes, we have another special episode for you, lovely listener. BUT this time it’s not about another Giles Alderson movie, no. This time, we’re talking about the rather fantastic mockumentary When The Screaming Starts (2021) with writer/director/producer Conor Boru, star/producer Octavia Gilmore AND producer Dom Lenoir. Yes, today it’s Dom’s turn to shed some light on his latest feature film.

In their conversation with our host, Giles Alderson, they talk about:

  • how they got involved in the project
  • talking to investors
  • how to produce a feature film
  • dealing with problems on set
  • making a mockumentary
  • editing
  • distribution & festivals
  • Again, we would really appreciate your support. Do go watch the film, give it a nice rating, and write an honest review, it would mean the world to us. But for now, sit back, relax and listen to our amazing chat with the lovely team behind When The Screaming Starts, Conor Boru, Octavia Gilmore & Dom Lenoir.

     

    WHEN THE SCREAMING STARTS is out NOW!
