In the Works: 3 Days Short Film Part 1

I had worked previously with Cinematographer, Brett Coble on an independent film called Port of Indecision (POI). POI was a good experience despite several setbacks and mishaps that were encountered. All in all, a great learning experience. The Director, Vince Johnson is a man with the gift for gab. He could sell a ketchup popsicle to an eskimo (stole that one from Tommy Boy). Though I had never seen firsthand Vince's directing skills, watching him work as a producer was magic. Unfortunately, POI eventually failed (I think primarily due to inexperience) and what was filmed still lies archived somewhere in Brett's computer area. There is some funny stuff in there and one of these days I'm sure we can splice something together to watch and laugh at.

After POI fell through, Vince ran on more hard times and had to move up to Northern California. This left Brett and I. Several months passed where I don't think Brett and I even talked. But then an idea started forming way back in the fall of 2004. A short film in one location with 2 actors on the cheap. I was going to learn from the mistakes that I saw being made on POI and create something. Brett had the gear and I had a script.
