Hello again... This is Episode 2 of our brand new season of The Directors Take Podcast. This weeks episode is our live podcast recording with Writer/Director Rose Glass, which was recorded at our very first live event and was performed immediately after the screening of her latest film LOVE LIES BLEEDING, which stars Kristen Stewart, Katy O'Brian and Ed Harris. This is a SPOILER FILLED conversation on craft and it includes:   -How she dealt with the level of expectation after her first film SAINT MAUD was so well received. -What aspect of the shooting process scared her the most. -How she practically creates tone. -How the characters changed from script to screen. -The challenges of working at a higher budget level. -How she crafted a story that follows multiple perspectives. -Emotional resilience.   Our wonderful sponsor for this episode is The National Film and Television School.   Bio Filming anything and everything from Harry Potter spoofs to fake nature mockumentaries about aliens, Rose was destined to be a director from a young age. Upon leaving home she studied film and video at London College of Communication, UAL - where she directed her first 'proper' shorts - and also gained experience as a runner on professional sets. Eventually she made her way to the NFTS, where she made acclaimed short Room 55 and began working on the idea for SAINT MAUD. In the years following she waitressed and worked as a cinema usher whilst working on the treatment and teamed up with fellow Breakthrough Brit Oliver Kassman. Initially Rose was intimidated by the idea of directing a feature, especially after finding the writing process quite isolating, but once she started, the collaborative nature of the experience made everything a complete joy. Having had such a great time with her team on SAINT MAUD. She has now made her second feature LOVE LIES BLEEDING starring Kristen Stewart, Katy O’Brian and Ed Harris. Teaming up again with producers Oliver Kassman and Andrea Cornwall, and also co-writing the script with fellow NFTS graduate and BABY REINDEER lead director Weronika Tofilska.   Nuggets of the week Rose Glass on Directors Now   Credits Music by Oliver Wegmüller   Socials The Directors' Take: Twitter (X) & Instagram Marcus: Twitter (X) & Instagram Oz: Twitter (X) & Instagram   If you have any questions relating to the episode or have topics you would like covering in future releases, reach out to us at [email protected].
