Filmmaking / Directing : I have just finished my first short film! by Kseniia Zhuravleva

I have just finished my first short film!

I’ve been a screenwriter for several years, but I’ve just completed my directorial debut!

I loved the process so much, I do anything to be on the set with my team again. And while the film is ib post-production, I have put together a small teaser. Please let me know what you think!

Morgan Aitken

Cool! I am impressed. And it was a treat to hear Serbian! I would recommend subs for the Serbo-Croat challenged among us, though. And hell, if you find yourself hitting the beach in Bar, bring a reel (or usb drive), I hajde da se nađemo na kafi!

Morgan Aitken - are you referring to Bar, Montenegro?? My wife and I have been travelling the world since 2024 and we spent 9 weeks in Montenegro, much of that time in Bar. Mot beautiful sunsets and scenery we've seen yet.

Kseniia Zhuravleva Congrats and much success!!!

Erik Gagnon

1. How does one get on a set? Tell me the truth. Does it take flattering directors and other insider people?

2. I can't find the "small teaser".

Kseniia Zhuravleva

Morgan Aitken Thank you so much, I d love to visit Bar one day! So far I am struggling with work and documents at home

Kseniia Zhuravleva

Erik Gagnon thanks, i hope it will be ready by summer. Cant wait to send it to compatitions and get some feedback from people here

Kseniia Zhuravleva

Marc Ginsburg I dont mind to be flattered :) I usually work with proactive people, those who can take care of their part without me permanently taking eye on them. Also It is importent how people feel around each other, so a good vibe is a plus

Congrats on the Milestone, Kseniia Zhuravleva! Teaser certainly piques my curiosity. Cheers.

Kseniia Zhuravleva Congratulations that’s a big step, especially moving from writing into directing.

There’s something completely different about being on set and seeing the story come alive with a team. It changes how you look at the material entirely.

Would love to check out the teaser always interesting to see how that first directorial experience translates on screen.
