The First Female Director with Pamela B. Green
We’re back! Season 2 of the TDL podcast has officially begun…
Pamela B. Green has made her first documentary feature, Be Natural: The Untold Story of Alice Guy Blache. And it is about one of the true pioneers of cinema, Alice Guy Blache. You’ve probably not heard of her. You’re not alone. Even film scholars and most of Hollywood’s finest have no idea who she was. And Pamela is set on rectifying that situation.
Topics Discussed
- the need for true resilience for a doc filmmaker to stay with their passion projects
- how Alice Guy Blache was one of the original filmmakers who embraced the idea of entrepreneurship
- how her successful $200k Kickstarter campaign helped her build an audience for her film
- her approach to using the detective work behind her search for Alice Guy Blache was used as a significant part of the story
