Elevan O'Clock #22 Julie Kalceff - First Day

Julie Kalceff is a filmmaker that has already had notable success with her web-series that then moved onto TV.  But here we discuss her short film "First Day".  In the images that accompany this interview is the star of the film - someone I have such respect for.

Elevan O'Clock #19 Bina Bhattacharya - Wild Dances

Bina is a bundle of positive energy.  Her enthusiasm is infectious and her dedication to ensuring perfect cultural aspects in her films is something I admire.  As it is very rare to find someone who loves Gregg Araki films as much as I do. 

Elevan O'Clock #18 Derek and Will

Derek Dodge and Will C. Sullivan are filmmaking husbands.  They specialise in making "improv" films.  Their latest dramatic collaboration "The Ring Thing"  is showing at Queerscreen's 25th Mardi Gras Film Festival and at Melbourne Queer Film Festival in 2018.  Here we talk about filmmaking, creative and life partnerships.   My favourite piece of advice is "Don't wait for someone to give you permission" if you want to make a film  (or any creative pursuit).  

If you would like to watch their first feature film collaboration "That's Not Us"  you can watch it on SBS on Demand.
