On Producing: with Mia Xerri, Iria Pizania, Helen Simmons, Loran Dunn & Sophie Reynolds

  • Summary

  • In the third episode of Short Hand, we’re asking producers what it is they do, how they learned they could do it and where they find people and projects to work with. You’ll hear from short film producers Mia Xerri (X to X), Iria Pizania (Talent Executive, Short Circuit), Sophie Reynolds (Vert, Enjoy), Helen Simmons (F*ck, Swan) and Loran Dunn (Lambing Season, Doggerland, Shagbands).

    Topics covered include: reaching out and networking with other producers, adaptability, the skills you need to produce, the experience you need to apply to the fund, finding collaborators at your level, having a creative vision and taking risks.
