Conversation with Filmmaker Eliot Rausch
If you are a fan of incredible short films on the internet, then you know who Eliot Rausch is. At this moment in my life, Eliot is probably one of the most inspirational filmmakers that have crossed my path. He has a connection with raw human emotions and storytelling that is unparalleled.
Eliot Rausch burst onto the scene in 2010 with his short film LAST MINUTES WITH ODEN, a heart-wrenching story that captures the last few minutes of a dog’s life before he is put to sleep. The well-received film won the first-ever Vimeo Film Festival and was named by Time as one of 2010’s top 10 Web films, putting him on the map as a filmmaker. The film caught the attention of Uber Content co-founder Preston Lee, who signed Rausch to the production company because of his powerful storytelling ability.
