We all need more Louis in our life, so here’s another bonus chunk of our elongated chat with the very exciting emerging filmmaker as we take him through the Last Call. From how long your short should probably be if you want to get a festival selection (from the guy who’s been to LFF, Raindance and the others!) to why no one cares how much dust is on the table in your script, Louis spills A LOT of great advice here.
And as before, if you want to check out Louis’ work, you’ll find it all at louischanfilms[dot]com, plus he’s on Instagram as @louischanwing!
