Welcome to Episode FIVE with Director, Actor, Writer and Producer Claudia Dzienny (previously Claudia Pickering).
Claudia is the ultimate indie filmmaker, her problem solving and can-do attitude are second to none. She burst onto the Australian scene with her indie feature film Frisky and then went on to do shows such as Google’s Resting Pitch Face, Wanderbust, Cheetah Airways, Wentworth, Flawsome: Sex, Drugs & Recipes (our show) and her most recent film Zombucha!Just premiered at MIFF. We talk about the making of Frisky, we go down memory lane on all the ups and downs of making Flawsome: Sex, Drugs & Recipes and navigating making this comedy during lockdowns and floods.
We chat about the important stuff too, like respecting and listening to your crew, handling triggering moments on set and the magic triangle that make people want to work with you again and again. Enjoy this absolute yap sesh with Claudia Dzienny!
