Personally I think its good to explore topics that have relevance to the lives of audiences everywhere, but the trick is to do it subtly through plot and character, not to mistake “issue” for storytelling. Story is king!
My first short film “Ms. Me” funded by the National Film and Video Foundation and Co-produced by little LA Productions CC and Moving Billboard Picture Company, completed development in 2018 and wrapped production in the same year. My second short film “Mier - The Ant” also funded by the National Film and Video Foundation and co-produced by little LA Productions CC, completed production in 2021.
