Off To Cannes Film Festival...
Just in case you missed the news on my Instagram, Aaron and I made a short film a few months ago. It was fun (and cold and stressful)! But we did it! We had worked together on lots of other commercial and music video shoots before, but never on anything scripted like this. It was something we wanted to do together just to see what would come of it. My parents own a rather large farm in a small town in Illinois, so we filmed it all on their property. We used lots of my old neighbors... and even my old mailman as actors in the film! It was pretty much everyone's first time to do any kind of acting, so it was fun to see people completely new to the process try to learn quickly. Everyone did such a great job and we all had so much fun!
We decided to submit it to the Cannes Short Film Corner thinking it would be a long shot, but what the heck... Why not!? We submitted... and we got in! So, we're off to France today! It's going to be a crazy journey, but I'll keep you up to date right here. More to come! If you would like to watch the trailer feel free to below.
