#12 - Short Filmmakers & Aspiring Directors Roundtable Discussion

In this roundtable, current short filmmakers and aspiring directors Muthu, Shriviyas, Eashwar, Deepak, Chella, Ashik, Ganae, and Sai dive deep into the short filmmaking process and their journeys toward becoming filmmakers. We talk in detail about how we come up with ideas, screenwriting, cast and crew hunting, practical difficulties that arise on set, co-writing, the hesitance of sharing our stories with others, how we direct, the post-production process, film distribution and how we deal with criticism in this very in-depth session which should be a must-listen for anyone even remotely interested in movie making and entering Kollywood.
