Question 3

What was it like to be producing a film for the first time?

Rory: Before we'd made this film, we'd worked for lots of other producers so we'd seen other people doing the job and it was really exciting being our first film - to actually do it for ourselves.

It's a completely different ball game when you're suddenly doing it for yourself because you're actually in charge and people are looking to you for the answers.

But that was a brilliant experience because we felt like we knew what the answers were. We knew how we wanted to make the film and how the director wanted to make the film. So stepping up into that responsibility was a great rush for us really.

Ben: We'd made lots of shorter films, videos and commercials and short films and it was great to be able to apply those skills to a longer project. A project, that really, the most essential thing being creative vision and not a product or a band, so that was fantastic.

In terms of working independently and at a low budget, it's all about being incredibly creative with problem solving. There's not a lot of money to spend to get out of problems. To solve them you have to think very carefully about what you're going to do and where you're going to spend your money.

That probably makes you, in terms of going forward, a better producer because you'll look to those solutions first before you fall back on money and hopefully we'll be able to make some more films in the future.
