How to Direct, Produce, Write, Star and Distribute your Indie Film with guest Guy Pidgen - 'Older'

This weeks episode is with the brilliant director, writer, producer and actor Guy Pidgen who’s film Older is out now!

He talks to Giles Alderson and Robbie McKane about how he made his first film at 16, how he started in the business and how he got his break.

He discusses who his film-making inspirations are and what you can take from them, what lessons he learn on set of his first feature ‘I Survived a Zombie Holocaust’ and what huge advice he has regarding sales and distribution of indie films to not be screwed over.

We talk about how his latest feature ‘Older’ came about, how he raised the money, how he got the movie distributed and why he made his own BluRay.
