The Fantasy Life
The Fantasy Life film was created in four days
total. On Wednesday, October 3rd I learned of the MySpace & Fox
Storytellers Contest and I came up with the idea for the story. I
wrote the entire script in 45 minutes that afternoon. On Thursday I called some
friends and cast all the roles without holding one single audition. I found a
Production Assistant (Patrick Ferguson) and a Make-up Artist (Melissa Apyepong)
on craigslist and I bought an HD Sony Camera, editing software and a tripod that
afternoon. Fortunately, I am located in Los Angeles so a local prop
house provided me with 6 pairs of binoculars and a badge for our FBI Agents.
Friday I made a call sheet, confirmed all of the actors and was exited for
the big shoot. The shoot day was a total of 4 hours. From 11:00 am to 3:00 pm. We had a great time on set, although making sure I got all of the "coverage" was a little stressful. Once we were done shooting - I started editing that evening and I had the film complete by 11:00 pm on Saturday, October 7th. This is the first film that I have ever produced. (Make that produced, directed, wrote and shot!) The Actors were amazing to work with and I think they immediately clicked as there were some great moments of comedy in this film. Please take the time to vote for our short film The Fantasy Life.
