In this instalment of the Director’s Notes podcast, we explore the
18th BFI Future Film Festival, delving into its programme of electrifying moving shorts and speaking to the inspiring filmmakers behind them in the iconic BFI Southbank. Jesse catches up with Young Programmer
Felix Farrow, who provides insight into the BFI Future Film Festival selection and programming process. We then speak to three filmmakers who wowed us with their outstanding works, beginning with
Lada Kopytova, who discusses finding her film
Blueprint in the edit, followed by a brief interview with
Grac Talbot about their Wizard of Oz inspired, mixed-media film
We’re Not in Essex Anymore. We then close out with our chat with
Dylan Scott, director of
A Few More Minutes, Please, an incredibly funny and powerful short film about social anxiety.
The entire selection of films are available on the
BFI’s YouTube channel until the 6th March.
