SEASON 2 - EPISODE 103 - IVAN SEN - DIRECTOR On this episode of the Team Deakins Podcast, we're speaking with director Ivan Sen (LIMBO, GOLDSTONE, MYSTERY ROAD). In addition to directing his films, Ivan is simultaneously responsible for the editing, cinematography, sound, and a myriad of departments typically delegated to others—his being a one man crew is a frequent point of discussion, and we learn how shooting on his own (or with relatively few collaborators) allows him to capture the emotional moments elusive to the circus of larger productions. We learn how Ivan's childhood moving around inland Australia informs the subjects of his films, and we discuss the power of place and its place in Ivan's story development process. During our discussion of his latest film, LIMBO, Ivan reflects on the increasing sense of formalism in his work and why he feels more excited for and more sensitive to the filmmaking process now than when he was just starting out. Towards the end, Ivan also shares his thoughts on the state of the Australian film industry and on being aware of the market realities of filmmaking and film exhibition when developing a project. We deeply admire Ivan's films, and we were thrilled to be able to speak with him about them. - Recommended Viewing: LIMBO - This episode is sponsored by Aputure
