PUBLISHING YOUR FIRST BOOK (IN 347 EASY STEPS)

A sketch comedy parody on the writing process (which can really be translated to any creative process in general). Wrote by, directed by, and starring yours truly and shot entirely on an iPhone X as a submission for the Moment Invitational Film Festival.

Shooting a short film in 4K on a phone was difficult because the phone kept auto-adjusting the exposure to whenever I moved — which was often. I also had to find assistants to help me film the video as I was in front of the camera the majority of the time. Additionally, I'm a scrappy student and didn't want to pay studio fees when I could create my idea in my bedroom. Prepping for the shoot did not go as planned and I ended up pre-lighting and staging the set a full day ahead of time. Given the studio was my bedroom, I had to move my bed and I literally slept in my kitchen. ;)
