This week's guest is producer Helen Gladders. I became aware of Helen's work through the 2016 short film RHONNA & DONNA, directed by Daina O. Pusic, and then I kept seeing her name popping up everywhere and knew she was a producer to watch.  More things you might want to know about Helen:   She is a graduate of the National Film and Television School having done their MA in Producing for Film & Television. She set up her own company Gingerbread Pictures in October 2016 and was nominated for the “Best Producer” award at Underwire for her short THE WYRD written and directed by Chloë Wicks, in 2017. She is an alumni of the BFI NETWORK'S Producer weekender, Edinburgh Film Festival talent lab, and NETWORK@LFF. Her recent short films include NIGHT BUS directed by former podcast guests Jessica & Henrietta Ashworth and the Film4 & BFI Network backed RUN written & directed by former podcast guest Ruth Greenberg and starring Niamh Algar.  At the time of recording, she was in post-production on her first feature TUESDAY, written and directed by Daina O. Pusic, starring Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Lola Petticrew and backed by A24, BBC Films, BFI, and Cinereach. And excitingly, the film has since had two festival appearances confirmed. It will premiere at this year's Telluride festival in the US, followed shortly after by the BFI London Film Festival, where it will screen in the First Feature Competition.  Elsewhere, Helen is busy working on several projects including debut features from filmmakers Jessica & Henrietta Ashworth, Astrid Thorvaldsen, Morayo Akande and Zoe Alker. We talk about how Helen discovered a knack for producing, her experience studying at NFTS, establishing a vision and a voice for her production company, the short film funding landscape, what it means to package a project, the differences between producing shorts and features, and how Titanic kickstarted both of our fascinations with the film industry…   SHOW NOTES: Watch Helen's shorts RHONNA & DONNA, RUN and NIGHT BUS. Listen to my episodes of Best Girl Grip with filmmakers Ruth Greenberg and Jessica & Henrietta Ashworth.   Read Deadline's review for the feature TUESDAY, starring Julia Louis-Dreyfus. Buy tickets for TUESDAY at the BFI London Film Festival.  Find out where you can watch Helen's film recommendation: JUMBO.  For more conversations with producers, listen to episodes of Best Girl Grip with Jeanie Igoe, Chi Thai, Sarah Brocklehurst, Emily Morgan and Elhum Shakerifar.     

My guest this week is the incredibly talented and prolific sound designer and mixer Ines Adriana. Ines studied for an MA in sound design at NFTS and has been credited on over 40 projects since 2020, including some incredible short films like Ruth Greenberg's RUN, Molly Manning Walker's, GOOD THANKS, YOU?, Theo James Krekis' PRAM SNATCHER, Nia Childs' HOME, as well as documentaries such as THE CATHEDRAL and SELF-PORTRAIT. Ines' work has screened at Sundance, SXSW, Cannes, BFI London Film Festival and Sheffield Doc/Fest. She is a Film London Lodestar 2022, a Berlinale Talent alumni and a member of the BFI NETWORK x BAFTA crew.  We talk about how she discovered a passion for sound, finding the confidence and the skills to call herself a sound designer, her ‘fever dream' experience studying at NFTS, how her career picked up momentum and how sound design can facilitate and augment story. I always enjoy the craft-centred episodes because I'm such a rookie in that space and it's such a fun opportunity to learn about a completely different area of filmmaking, so I appreciate Ines' time and I hope you get something from our conversation.

My guest this week is Ruth Greenberg, an award-winning screenwriter and director whose directorial debut RUN, a short film starring Niamh Algar from CENSOR, is currently showing on Short of the Week. The film was backed by Film4 and BFI NETWORK and was long listed for a BIFA in 2021.  As a screenwriter, Ruth's prehistoric horror, THE ORIGIN, is in post-production with Escape Plan Productions - the company who made SAINT MAUD and she's also working on a medieval horror with director Nora Fingscheidt (SYSTEM CRASHER, THE UNFORGIVABLE) and producer Philippa Tsang at DCM. Ruth and I had a great chat about completing a PhD in screenwriting, getting an agent and what that relationship is like, how she prepared to direct RUN and collaborated with director of photography and former podcast guest Molly Manning Walker to achieve the subjectivity and kineticism required of the story, what a writing day might look like for her, how she likes to situates herself in the setting or place of a story and how she deals with rejection.  I think there are some really vital thoughts that Ruth expresses on writing genre and writing in general, and not being hemmed in by how you ought to write.  **TW: discussions of assault** There are few housekeeping notes before we get to the interview. The first of those is that there is mild discussion of violence against women in the context of Ruth's short film Run and we mention the death of Sarah Everard, so if for whatever reason you don't feel comfortable listening to that, feel free to skip the episode or rejoin us around the 20-min mark. The other thing to say in relation to that film is that it's on Short of the Week and to coincide with that launch, Ruth its raising money via JustGiving for Woman's Trust who provide mental health and support services to women affected by domestic abuse. I've linked to that page in the show notes, so if you'd like to donate, you can do so there. And I would obviously also recommend watching Ruth's very powerful short film. This was recorded via zoom and there are occasional background noises, but otherwise I hope you enjoy this conversation. This episode 104 of Best Girl Grip.

This is a special episode that was recorded live at Georgies' open house. I sat down with ceramic artists Ruth Greenberg, Rabun Thompson, and Sharon Greenwood. We talked very extensively about the role of social media for today's growth of a potter's business.

Edition 13 deals with the debate among women regarding radical feminists who align with right wing forces, individuals & organizations to reach a narrowly agreed upon goal. It is always hard for us to decide what makes it in to our podcasts and what does not. We usually have far more material to include than we do space. What Ruth adds to this discussion is extremely valuable and we hope that women will listen to this in addition to all of the voices in edition 13. Thanks.

We are proud to present our 13th edition podcast focused on the ethics of coalition-building with both the right & the left as we work as radical feminists to hold and advance the rights of girls and women. In edition 13, WLRN asks hard questions about the ethics and efficacy of WoLF's decision to accept funds from the Alliance Defending Freedom, a conservative organization that is against full abortion rights & homosexuality. This hour-long broadcast features interviews with Kaeley Triller-Haver of the Hands Across the Aisle Coalition, Natasha Chart of the Women's Liberation Front (WoLF) and commentary from Nile Pierce of the WLRN collective. In addition, Sekhmet SheOwl reads statements by Stop Trans Chauvinism & Max Robinson of Re-sisters, both groups that are strongly critical of feminists aligning themselves with the right wing. WLRN headlines are read by our sound tech and engineering goddess Jenna Di Quarto and feature a wide variety of stories including sound clips from a recent School Board meeting in Minnesota where two feminists, Tasha Rose and Emily Zinos, faced a room full of trans activists. The songs featured for this edition were selected by Sekhmet SheOwl and are by Nina Simone & Alix Dobkin. Featured photo by Bettye Lane, 1972. We received statements created by WoLF, Max Robinson of Re-sisters, Stop Trans Chauvinism & Ruth Greenberg, lesbian feminist from Great Britain, on the topic of this broadcast. May the discussions continue! You will find links to those statements on our web site wlrnmedia.wordpress.com under the post for edition 13. Please like, share and comment widely!

This month's edition of Women's Liberation Radio News is our tenth so far, focusing on "Conflict, Self-Love & Sisterhood" within the independent women's movement. How can we strategize through the inevitable personal and political conflicts women's organizations face? How can we strengthen our resolve through self-love in a patriarchal world that benefits from women being alienated from themselves and their sisters? Listen on for advice from Ruth Greenberg who hit the ground running in her activism by forming a successful radical feminist collective in the UK soon after becoming radicalized herself, and from our very own Thistle Pettersen, a feminist folk singer from Madison, Wisconsin. In addition, Cathy Brennan talks about the new lesbian group, Bunch of Dykes. Thanks for tuning in to WLRN and be sure to check out our March Edition on the Women's Marches next month!
