I usually talk to filmmakers at the end of their journey, when the film has been shot and released, but this week I thought it would be interesting to chat to two filmmakers at the very beginning of their journey. So I spoke to Andrew Klaus-Vineyard and Daniel Talbott who are about to shoot a feature documentary. Andrew has made a bunch of short films and Daniel has a background in theatre and screenwriting on big shows like The Connors, The Big C and The Mist. In the chat I was able to ask them all the big questions about audience, where to watch it and how. We also talked about the project and what brought them both together.
