Our guest is Pete Trifunovic: @petetrif

Starting out as an independent film maker Pete is well on his way to establishing himself within the film industry! One of the topics we’ll be chatting about is what it takes to get a self-financed film from just thoughts to the big screen

In this chat we cover:

+ How to best find the balance for creating his own projects alongside working full-time

+ How this current situation has offered him a window to start developing new projects

+ Making the decision if a project is to be feature-length or short-film form

+ The making of his co-made independent film 'Busking Turf Wars'

+ Finding actors and crew and forming string working bonds

+ Luis Le Prince and the dodgy circumstances around his disappearance

+ The process of creating projects and collaborating

+ How to get films into film festivals and what they're like to attend

+ The difficulties with long projects and still managing to keep continuity

+ How to know when to let a project on the go or let it go

+ Generating the support from your local city

+ The willingness he's willing to learn from his full time role working on the soaps to transfer into his own film making

+ His true love of why he makes films

+ How he and his brother came to get involved with making films

+ Being long-listed for a BAFTA and how this has impacted his motivation in pushing his projects

+ Having people like Russell Brand and Sir Ian McKellen

+ Finding a balance between not forcing creativity and placing deadlines to finish projects

+ Making a pilot episode to present to TV

+ Can 'Busking Turf Wars' be made into a TV show
