That’s a wrap!

On Saturday, we finished shooting for my latest short film, Call Me Back. The shoot went really well, and we even finished ahead of schedule. The crew and actors did an amazing job, and it feels great to finally have all the shooting done. There’s lots more work to do (editing, voice-overs, sound effects, color correction, etc.) but at least the most stressful and expensive part is finished.

We started this project in December of 2008. We scheduled two days of shooting, which probably would have been just enough time if our generator hadn’t stopped generating at the beginning of the second shoot day. Eight months of scheduling conflicts, weather delays, and low-key anxiety later, it’s finally done. We may have set some kind of record for the longest production of a 10 minute film ever.

Huge props and thank yous to the actors, the crew, and especially Briana, who was an actress, production assistant, still photographer, and craft services on this shoot.

Here are some still frames from the footage we shot in December, as well as some of Briana’s production stills from the first two days of filming. I’ll put up frames and stills from the latest shoot soon.
