Feels so good to be almost done filming my first feature. We have two more sizable scenes left, and then a few smaller shots that we’ll probably take a break before grabbing. Hopefully I’ll start editing soon, but I feel good about the footage we’ve gotten. This will at least be a film I enjoy.
It feels completely different wearing the writer/director hat than it does to be a cinematographer, a gaffer, an actor, etc. Everything is up to me for the final say. And having so many jobs on this film is overwhelming, but that’s fine. It should be a challenge. This is something I’ve almost conquered. It’ll be half a year or so before I find out if other people like it, but no one can take this accomplishment from me.
When I decided to make this film back in May or June, I really didn’t believe I would follow through and shoot it. I always expected I would get far and back out right before we would actually begin shooting.
Fuck laziness.
About me
A film with a horrible synopsis and a lot of heart. We hope.
