Chris Stagg presents Words & Sound, the arts and culture podcast on Phoenix FM. In episode 6 of Words & Sound, my special guest is film director, producer and screenplay writer; Scott Lyus. It's a real pleasure to speak to Scott, who is a talented filmmaker who creates films that genuinely have something to say. Scott and I discuss his short films to date, Scott's process for making a film from conception to screen, his upcoming new horror short Black Mass that deals intelligently and sympathetically with depression, and we talk about Scott's brand new and first feature film and its just launched supporting Kickstarter campaign; Walking Against the Rain. Scott also tells us all about his horror festival; The Black Sunday Film Festival.

Scott Lyus is an acclaimed award winning film maker whose shorts include; Supernova, Order of the Ram, Silently Within Your Shadow, Echoes of the Passed and Black Mass.
