Dana Kipple joins fellow filmmaker Giles Alderson to chat about her journey creating her micro budget indie film, Reflect.
She talks why she chose to direct,
Addiction and mental health.
Why having a beginners mind is useful and her planning and prep.
She talks finance and crowdfunding, writing the script in two weeks and giving notes to fellow actors when you are also acting.
She also discusses why she rushed her edit and release, marketing the movie and why you should be kind to yourself.
Reflect is OUT NOW on Prime and all good and great streaming services.
