    Making a Feature film and why community is so important in filmmaking.

    In this episode, we explore the reality of making your first feature film and the power of the local community. Mark breaks down his year-long journey shooting his debut feature—from writing the script to a 13-day sprint in Lincolnshire. We discuss the mental shift required to jump from shorts to features and the technical hurdles of a small-crew production. Later in the episode, Anderson introduces the Staffordshire Film Collective. We discuss how this collective of filmmakers is changing the landscape in the Midlands—empowering female directors, keeping local talent in the region, and proving that you don't need a BFI grant or to live in London to produce high-quality cinema.
