On the occasion of the film screening at the Fractured Visions Film Festival, we spoke with him about his casting process, working with actors and the music used in “Lost in Apocalypse”.
Lost in Apocalypse is your debut feature. Can you tell us about how you came to be a filmmaker and why you choose this project as your debut?
I have to start off by saying that I actually didn’t choose this project, because the project chose me, in a way. The best that I can explain it is as follows. As many other film school graduates,...

Lost in Apocalypse screened at Fractured Visions Film Festival
The story starts in media res with the characters amid a zombie virus outbreak.

The organisers of the Fractured Visions Film Festival have announced the line-up for their inaugural event. Says the organisers:

What began as a fun celebration of youth quickly turns into a menacing and bloody night of terror,...
