Video Talks Podcast: Episode 07
This is the second part of the interview with director Hasraf 'HaZ' Dulull.
Listen to Episode 06 for Part 1 of the interview.
HaZ used every trick in the ‘thinking outside the box’ book to go from compositor to eventual movie director.
In Part #2 he talks about how the right sales companies can really help you decide on what film to make, how to reach out to industry contacts, his own online course on filmmaking and how filmmaking is changing with the latest gaming tech.
He also explains the process behind making Battlesuit – his recent animated pilot.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
