Crunch Time
We're down to the last few days before shooting and we are finishing up all preparations. We have all of our roles cast and I'm very excited to be working with all of these talented actors. We are also shooting at some really cool locations including a nice looking restaurant called Prezzo and the Staats house. We are also starting to raise money and my next post will probably be a link to our Kickstarter page.

Casting
Last week Donavon and I put in some long hours holding a bunch of auditions. With some help from Luke and Tabitha of course, thanks again guys.
We saw a bunch of great people and it will certainly be a hard choice. I've narrowed it down to my top few but I think I'm going to have to have a callback before I decide the two leading roles. Seeing the level of talent in these actors has really got me excited about the project. I think we are going to get some really awesome people.

Thesis Time
Its first semester of senior year and that means its thesis time. I'm already hard at work on my thesis film Emily's Revolution. Its the story of Emily, a recent college graduate who is taking a semester off before starting graduate school. During this time she meets some new people, including a romantic interest named Zach, and explores the colonial history of New Jersey. She starts to wonder if her career path in finance is really the right one.
Several drafts of the script have been written and I'm always working on updating it. I've also signed on an awesome DP, Donavon de Cesare. We've scouted some pretty cool locations but I'll give you more info on that when we have them confirmed.
Our biggest challenge at the moment is scheduling. With winter fast approaching we are worried about shooting the exterior scenes before hypothermia becomes an issue.

Intro and Updates
Welcome to my grand spanking new blog. I've decided to start one so that people have a place to look to find out what I'm up to and what projects I'm working on. On that note, what am I working on?
I'm currently in post-production on my latest film Ryan and Jane. It's a short film about two people who were friends in high school but lost touch when the went to college. When they bump into each other over winter break they discover that there may have been more to their relationship than either of them ever knew. We are very close to having a final cut and it is looking very nice. I do have more information and some production stills but I'll put those up in another post.
As far any other projects (and by that I basically just mean my thesis) I've written a few possibilities for now but as of yet I don't have an official thesis script. I'm probably going to write a few more before I pick which one I actually want to shoot. At the moment writing is on hold while I finish up all the other school work that is due this coming week but when May rolls around I'll have plenty of time for lots of writing.
