EP97 - Peter Fellows - How to build a mainstream and indie writing career at the same time. - a podcast by Simon Caine

from 2018-02-02T06:00

:: ::

Peter is a film writing, actor, producer, director and basically anything that is involved in movie and film making from the script to the post-production to the organising of screenings. We talked about how he got started making films as a child and how the change in technology has enabled him to continue creating his own projects but also work on mainstream TV and films.


I got him on to talk about...


  • How he went from making stop-motion with his dads tape camcorder to making content for MTV.
  • The most effective order to put together a film.
  • How he used his DIY indie films as calling cards to work with his comedy writing hereos on blockbuster films.
  • How he's built a career and a network without any social media.
  • The hidden pressures of crowdfunding.
