Interview
How do you choose your star cast?
When selecting cast members for my films, I first look for believable actors and actresses, which is essential to your project’s success. After I find the right cast, I work with them to develop into their Characters.
How tough it is for a producer to keep the budget unaffected?
I found it to be tough, especially with a small budget. To ensure I stayed on budget, I created a mock budget list, which included everything I could think of. Then I would have my production assistant go over that list and bring it back to reality by making sure we have enough food to feed the cast and crew.
Who are your filmmaking influencers?
I don’t have many, and that’s because I am still learning about the art of filmmaking. Watching movies now is a different experience; I am looking at camera angles, film color, acting, storytelling, etc. But here are a few filmmakers that inspire me Ava DuVernay, Quinten Tarantino, Sofia Coppola, and Martin Scorsese.
