Yesterday marked the release of a project to which I dedicated many, many months. Writing, Location Scouting, Casting, Rehearsing, Directing, Filming, Editing, Scoring... One doesn't realize how much is involved in a project until they are in it!

My first short film was shot on 16mm Kodak film, (200T & 500T) through an Arri SR3 in Super 16, resulting in a 1.85 Aspect Ratio. Errors were made, flaws are present, but what a learning experience it all was! Everyone involved, from the actors, to the crew had never been part of film making. Perhaps it is very apparent at times, but I hope you enjoy the result. All criticism welcomed! I'll be back for more, and that's a threat! [Big Grin]

Evan,

Congratulations on your first film! I really enjoyed it. I can only imagine how much time and hard work you and your cast & crew put into this. Shot in Super 16 no less!

Doug

Thank you Doug!

Lots of time, work and fun were definitely involved! The experience has only inspired me to keep writing and filming! I hope to have more to show in the coming months!
