The Filmmakers Podcast #113: How to make FIVE feature films in 5 years with writer, producer and director Tom Paton
Giles Alderson (The Dare, World of Darkness) sits down with director, writer and producer Tom Paton to chat how he made his films, Pandorica, Redwood, Black Site, Stairs and G-Loc and how important it is to have a business head on as a filmmaker.
- How he went from a Club Rep in Cyprus to becoming a Filmmaker and how he started with no real knowledge of cameras or production.
- How he self taught himself film-making and learnt to edit and understand VFX and graphics because he has no choice.
- How he didn’t want to make a short but a feature first and how he raised finance using his background in selling to secure investment. We discuss what actors look for in a director – and vice versa and producing your own work – and find good collaborators. And they delve into his screenwriting process – from script to shoot. PLUS loads of advice for filmmakers new and old.
To learn more about the film, LISTEN TO THE PODCAST BELOW with the director of the film. The G-Loc portion begins at 1:10 into the podcast, sorry nothing about Stephen Moyer in this one, but does have some info about the film.
What does G-Loc mean, anyway?
I’d never heard the term “G-Loc” prior to Stephen Moyer’s involvement in this film, so I thought maybe others needed a way to learn more. Below is some info and a video which helps explain the film’s title:
DEFINITION: G-Induced Loss of Consciousness is a condition caused by a reduction in blood flow to the brain at which point the neurons fail to function in the absence of oxygen replenishment by normal blood flow (Bureau of Air Safety Investigation, 1988).
Watch the video below which shows the effects of G-Loc.
