RTF 318: The Life and Chronicles of Edward Q. Tracey

Written and Directed by Jeremy Burchard, Co-Written by Phillip Lacey. Starring Phillip Lacey, Michael Joseph, and Karlene Detwiler.

This short project is my first film; first to write, first to direct, first to shoot, and first to edit. So it was a bit of a learning experience, to say the least. It was done for RTF 318, an introductory film class at the University of Texas. All shot on MiniDV with a Sony PD-150 and edited in Final Cut Pro (where I managed to push enough buttons to figure it out). Film tone and color is loosely based on the painting "Oil Field Girls" by Jerry Bywaters. Inspired by true events. Please note: I don't own the copyright for Marilyn Manson's "I Don't Like the Drugs (But the Drugs Like Me)." I included the copyright information in the credits.
