Welcome to another episode of Indie Film Podcast, where chaos meets creativity! In this episode, we tackle a topic we know all too well—running behind on set. Just know, if you’re in this boat…you’re definitely not alone.
From filming 20 pages in a single day (bad idea!) to wrangling extras, battling mirrored hotel rooms, and rewriting scripts on the fly, we share our funniest, most cringe-worthy tales of indie filmmaking madness. Plus, learn how we rallied with duct-tape solutions (figuratively, of course) and the help of an amazing team.
💡 What you'll learn (or laugh at):
- Why pre-production planning can make or break your schedule.
- The secret sauce to shooting 8-10 pages a day (and why 20 is a terrible idea).
- Lessons from big productions like The Island of Dr. Moreau—because at least we didn’t dress as a dog-man to sneak onto set.
- Practical tips to communicate, adapt, and survive indie film chaos.
🎬 Whether you're a seasoned filmmaker or just curious about the behind-the-scenes mayhem of production, this episode has something for everyone!
