Welcome to the fourth episode of The Movies And Me, a new podcast project of ours where in each of these episodes we sit down and talk with a filmmaker or someone who works in the film industry about their newest and latest film project or just a big cinephile in general who just lives for movies. We also ask about and discuss their four favourite films that have inspired them to go out and have a career in film or just at the very least inspire them.
On this episode, we are delighted to chat with filmmaker William Darbyshire, Anders's old friend from Met Film School in London. After graduating from Met Film School in 2013, Will started making films for his YouTube channel. He has earned quite a large following with amassing over 615,000 subscribers. The work that he did through his channel showcased unique and profound views on travel, relationships and mental health.
In 2016, Will reached out to his followers to send him their intimate thoughts about their relationship experiences, in the form of written letters, poems, photographs, and emails. The book, This Modern Love, is a collection of love and heartache from Will's followers. It was a Sunday Times bestseller and sold over 100,000 copies. A follow up book to This Modern Love is in the making. If you follow Will on his social media platforms like Instagram or Twitter, you can find info on it there. And also where to send in submissions to have it possibly be featured in the book. In Will's words if you have something to get off your chest and have it be considered for the next instalment, simply write a letter that you would want to send to your crush or your ex and email it to the email inbox: submissions@thismodern.love. It can take on the form of whatever you feel is best to express yourself, all you have to do is provide your first name, age and location. Will still keeps up with his filmmaking and is currently writing and developing short and feature film ideas. His recent short film Cycles has just had a successful film festival run.
We had so much fun talking to Will about his career and hearing what his four favourite films are. We hope you enjoy the episode.
