On this weeks episode we pretty much go from the mail room to Assisting to Exec Producing one of this summers soon to be biggest hit 'Twisters'. Well, we don't but Ashley Jay Sandberg does as she sits and chats to Giles Alderson and Dom Lenoir all about the twists and turns to her huge rise to Exec Producer at Kennedy/Marshal and working with Spielberg. Ashley also discusses: Problem Solving in prep. How to talk to people you look up to. How you get in the running for making a studio movie and how to get one made. How to make a script or package sell-able. Test screening, budgets, strikes and releases. Twisters is OUT this Wed 17th July 2024 in cinemas around the UK.
