Hello fellow hunters!
So much has happened since my last post, so we’ve got some catching up
to do. I’ll start with an update for
now, but I promise you there’s some really interesting stuff coming that’s all
things THA!
Last month I was back in my director shoes (I love those
shoes) and had a five day shoot thanks to YOU and our crowdfunding
campaign. Of the 6 stories within the Hunter’s Anthology, we were able to finish
one and start another. The one we
finished is the first of the tales, called “The Fortune Maker.” This stars Janna Bossier as TABITHA, a young
woman in desperate need of Tarot reading, and Marilyn Oran as MADAME RENEE, a
fortune teller with a 100% guaranteed policy.
Their performances were nothing short of amazing. In fact, the whole shoot was a smooth success. We got everything we needed, and being in the
post-production process right now, it’s coming together beautifully.
Also on board was director of photography Ben Wolf, who
really added a great visual style and a load of experience in helping us
achieve something great. I also want to
send out a huge, huge thank you Nicky Akmal, our producer, for bringing everything
together from the start, and helping us make this happen!
The other story we started was “Lust Potion Number Who
Cares,” which stars Eric Colton as ROD and Yoko Hyun as MOONI. I haven’t put it together yet, but some of
the takes were hilarious. We were going
for comic relief amongst a dark story, a great combo, and that’s just what we
got for this one!
So the blog is back and I’m looking forward to writing about
all I experienced and learned: prepping, shooting, finishing. For all those new directors just starting
out, you might find it helpful. For
those who aren’t in the film world, you just may find it interesting.
Either way, I just wanted to check in during this busy (and
super-exciting) time and let you know that things are moving at a faster pace
than ever. For those interested, stay
tuned for more on my Road to Wrap!
