Emerge…

Written and produced over the course of three days, this short film was created as part of a film making convention attended by yours truly and several of my friends and colleagues.

The entire thing was shot in a single day, with a sound person who had never done any work on a set before, a DP who had only just learned to use a camera that day, our beautifully talented actors, our gorgeously kind producer, and me, a director who had only worked on documentaries prior and never with narrative work.

The music was all composed and produced by my brother, myself and a friend. Our team had only met a day or two before (again, as part of this convention). We have remained friends since.

We have been told over and over by teary-eyed viewers that this should be in film festivals. So now, I’m bringing this to you. I hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed making it.

Thank you.
