In this episode of The Reel Girl's Club, I sit down with Writer & Director Rosie May Bird Smith to talk about her brilliantly surreal short film Egg Timer - a dark comedy that turns the pressure of the biological clock into a bold, hilarious, and chaotic cinematic experience.
Rosie shares how the idea came to life, her process for creating eye-catching practical effects, and how she used humour and absurdity to explore deeper personal themes about womanhood and fertility.
We also dive into her beginnings as a director of commercials, writing to briefs and creating treatments for brands such as Andrex, Asda, Durex and Muller Light, finding your creative voice as a filmmaker and much more.
