Why I Went Back to Making Short Films with Feature Film Director Richard Raymond
Manage episode 384966788 series 2966094
In this episode we speak with film director, Richard Raymond.
We focus on his journey from directing the feature film ‘Desert Dancer’ which starred Freida Pinto and was distributed by Relativity to directing the short film “Souls of Totality” - the only film ever to have been shot during a solar eclipse!
‘Souls’ won Best Short Film at Raindance in 2018, the Grand Jury prize at Hollyshorts, had a special mention at the Edinburgh International Film Festival and was selected for Tribeca Film Festival. Online it’s everywhere from platforms like ‘DUST’ to ‘Alter’ and ‘Omeleto,’ and has had millions of views.
Richard also takes us through why he went back into short films, the planning involved in shooting a film during an actual solar eclipse, how he gets his work funded and his methods for making sure his work is seen by the right people.
We really encourage you to watch ‘Souls Of Totality’ before listening. You can watch it here on Vimeo:

We also delve into the brilliant “A Million Eyes,’ his latest short film. You can watch that here:
