FILMMAKER INTERVIEW

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

No matter what, always be kind. You never know what someone is going through.

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

The scene when Holden got Milk on his head made everyone laugh, it was the last scene we filmed after a full day of shooting and we knew we only had one take.

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

The experience of using new equipment, and trying something new with friends and getting the opportunity to see what it’s like being a director. It also is a great way to make it into future film classes.

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

Post-production was the hardest part. There was lots of miscommunication on the editing process. What we have learned is that you have to work together for something to work out and that all cast and crew must be on the same page.

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

Don’t give up. As I have learned, you will run into trouble but nothing is impossible, just keep trying and you’ll end up with a great movie and a few great memories.
