FILMMAKER INTERVIEW

What do you want the audience to take away from the film?

Our main goal is to captivate and interest the audience in our film. In terms of what we want them to think about afterwards, we want people to make their own interpretation of the film, especially the end.

Which scene did you have an absolute blast filming and why?

Scene 2 was probably the most fun. The whole filmmaking group was together, and we spent a lot of time laughing.

Why are opportunities like Film Prize Junior important to students like you?

They can help students interested in certain subjects learn about them and test the waters; they can help students find their passion. I know that personally, this film was a fun project for me and my friends that challenged me both creatively and logistically.

What obstacles challenged you and your crew the most when completing this film? What did you learn from making this short film?

Scheduling conflicts and the weather were the biggest challenges for us, but we made it work. I learned about the process of making a movie, and all the steps that go into it, leadership, and cooperation.

What advice would you give to future participants in Film Prize Junior?

Communication and organization are essential to making a short film. You’ll have a lot of fun participating in this contest. And use the resources provided to you, they proved very useful to my team.
