FILMMAKER INTERVIEW

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

I want everyone who watches it to get a good laugh from our movie. The idea was to try and put a smile on someone’s face when they needed one.

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

The last scene was my favorite to film.

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

This is important to me because it gives me and my group the opportunity to do things that most students and adults don’t get to do. Movie production takes a lot of coordination, creativity, teamwork, and ideas. I think everyone can take away something from making a short film that can or will help them in the future.

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

The biggest obstacle was the audio for us. We learned that you want to get the audio perfect before going to postproduction, we refilmed parts of our movie multiple times and decided that although our audio is not the best it is the best that we can do with what we had at the time.

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

Make sure your group is really invested in the project. And make sure you love what you’re filming.
