In this episode, host Conor Boru sits down with director Vanessa Caswill to discuss her latest feature, Reminders of Him.
Vanessa is an English director and screenwriter known for her work across television and film, including the BBC miniseries Thirteen, Little Women, and the feature Love at First Sight.
Her latest film follows a young mother who, after serving time in prison, attempts to rebuild a relationship with her daughter. Facing hostility from nearly everyone around her — except a bar owner with unexpected ties to the child — she must confront her past in order to create the possibility of a better future.
In the episode, they discuss:
Vanessa Caswill’s career journey from TV into feature filmmaking
The creative challenges of adapting a bestselling novel
Practical directing techniques for working with young actors
Production challenges and problem-solving on set
Emotional storytelling and performance-driven filmmaking
Why protecting your own creative voice is essential in the industry
...and so much more! Enjoy!
