Film Follies & Green Screen Collaborative Dreams The People's Countryside Environmental Debate Podcast

    • Nature

Carolien, from South Holland, The Netherlands, sets the first question to be discussed today - “When you both think back, what do you remember most about your working collaboration? Would that be the same as other people have?”

William highlights the enjoyable collaboration with Stuart, which has faced challenges but evolved into a rewarding experience. Their strong criteria for working together has fostered reliability. Despite opportunities to part ways, both William and Stuart have remained committed. Stuart humorously acknowledges William’s influence, emphasising the rarity of finding reliable, long-term collaborators.

Yusuf, from Kocaeli, Turkey sets the second listener question for todays episode - “Interested to hear both your thoughts on modern film making techniques and style as an effective way to motivate and get urgent environmental messages out there?”

Stuart critiques modern filming techniques, particularly their impact on people with epilepsy and the artificiality of the ‘BBC way of talking.’ He advocates for slowing down and avoiding short snippets. Stuart also highlights the overreliance on effects and the need for techniques that consider diverse cognitive abilities. He also feels modern film treats audiences as though they’re in the middle of an orgasm, when it should be more directed at when someone is drinking a steady pint of Guinness.

William emphasises the importance of allowing film scenes to breathe, citing the film The End We Start From as an example of effective storytelling through measured pacing. 

Both agree on the value of creativity over repetition.
