Write Shoot Cut

Write Shoot Cut is a platform that is dedicated to celebrating and showcasing independent and undiscovered filmmaking talent from across the world. Covering everything from people starting out, short filmmaking, low/no budget features and beyond; the podcast involves interviews with filmmakers, actors, writers and producers who are out there doing it, instead of talking about doing it, delving into what motivates them, the troubles they have faced and what advice they would give to people starting out. The podcast has a conversational style, like chatting to someone down the pub, so you can really get to know those people involved. Hosted by Neil Rolland.
