Description
Guest Ed Burns is one of a very small number of filmmakers who have been in the thick of the Indie film scene since the 90s and he has invaluable knowledge to share.
In this episode, we talk about...
Ed’s film Summer Days, Summer Nights and how his childhood helped inspire it.
How Ed selected the eclectic music for the film’s soundtrack.
Compromises that need to be made to keep the budget low for Indie films, what cannot be compromised on, and how Ed decides between the two.
Why Indie filmmakers need the skillset of being able to make last minute changes to accommodate schedule and budget.
Ed’s creative process as a writer and how he identifies the good ideas.
How Ed is able to make sure his work is up to par when he’s wearing multiple hats - like writer, director, and actor - all on the same project.
