In this episode, I sit down with filmmakers Hillary Shakespeare and Chris Reading to talk about the making of their indie sci-fi feature Time Travel Is Dangerous, the journey of turning a short film concept into a full-length movie.
We dive into how they built a stellar cast and why shooting the film in sections helped them land incredible talent. The behind-the-scenes process of indie production from development to final cut. What they learned about sales, distribution, and marketing in the indie film world and practical tips and tricks for filmmakers looking to evolve a short film into a feature
If you’re an indie filmmaker (or dreaming of becoming one), this conversation is packed with real, hard-won insights about creativity, resourcefulness, and making your film happen on your own terms.
