Cherryduck
By Jez Furlong
Each week I’m going to be talking to some of the very talented directors that we work with to find out why they do what they do, what their processes are, how they get inspired, the tears, the tantrums and ultimately what their expectations are for the future of directing. Welcome to our Cherryduck Podcast ‘Shoot The Runner’

Shoot The Runner Ep 5 with Denise Alder
I had the pleasure of chatting with Denise Alder last year about how she got into film and specifically directing and commercials.
She studied at Central St Martins and is a director I've worked with for years, since the early days of Cherryduck. Always very experimental and understandably, given her art background. She's worked at some great places such as Rankin & Karmarama and tonight her debut documentary Rodney Ps Jazz Funk goes out on BBC 4. How far she's come!
Shoot The Runner with The Queen (otherwise known as Dan + Crinan)
In this episode I speak to top lads and directing team Dan + Crinan (The Queen) about their approach to practical effects and how they achieve such wizardry! They've certainly got the work to prove it.
They explain how they met, ways of working and surviving a prison stint (a case of mistaken identity) whilst doing a recce in the Middle East, not something you learn at film school I suspect!?
