Tuesday Jun 29, 2021
Tuesday Jun 29, 2021
On today’s show, Giles Alderson and co-host Dom Lenoir chat with producer Carolina Groppa. She is an Emmy-nominated producer of such films as Miss Virginia (2019), Hysterical (2021), and the rather excellent Autism in Love (2015).
They dive deep into her journey, from her beginnings as an actress to becoming a producer in Hollywood, how she built her career, and what it was like to be the talk of the town. She discusses the difference between producing narrative feature films and documentaries, her producer’s life, and why it’s important to cherish the little moments on set.
Carolina gives great advice on how to start a career. This episode is a masterclass for aspiring producers. So sit back, relax and enjoy this week’s conversation with Carolina Groppa.

This weeks episode is with the brilliant director, writer, producer and actor Guy Pidgen who’s film Older is out now!
He talks to Giles Alderson and Robbie McKane about how he made his first film at 16, how he started in the business and how he got his break.
He discusses who his film-making inspirations are and what you can take from them, what lessons he learn on set of his first feature ‘I Survived a Zombie Holocaust’ and what huge advice he has regarding sales and distribution of indie films to not be screwed over.
We talk about how his latest feature ‘Older’ came about, how he raised the money, how he got the movie distributed and why he made his own BluRay.
