I shot this back in 02 for a student project. You have to love the gorilla style filmmaking you do as an undergrad. My actor couldnt make it to the shoot in the hills, so I set up the camera, pulled the hoodie over my head, tossed a couple of smoke bombs out there and hit record. I dont think you can tell that Im 8 taller than my actor, but you be the judge. The under water scene was especially fun. It was not in the budget to rent an underwater housing for the camera so I hit record and set the camera inside a see through cookie jar. Then sealed the top with silicone. Hey, if it had leaked I would have told the school, I dont know what happened to your digi. I had someone stand on my shoulders as my actor swooshed down the indoor slide at the local YMCA. We shot it three times. I wasnt able to look through the viewfinder, but I think it works. Hope you enjoy.
I like your movies. I wish you the best of luck in the industry. It's refreshing to see young people pursuing their dreams and doing it well. Peace and God's Blessings.
