Ohio in March and April.
Feeling like observers rather than participants we rolled into Ohio and school with 5 weeks left in the semester. Like good collaborative filmmakers we volunteered around a hundred hours for our classmate's as they shot their second semester films. Then, in return, they would help us. Except they mostly didn't. One guy had 'Tech Heads' the night we needed him and another had to sleep. A few said they'd love to help and then blew us off. The two guys we knew we could count on, showed up. But. In the end it was mostly Me and Vin....just like old times.
We shot Vin's film at the Busy Day Market after they closed at 10 PM which means the shoots lasted to between 4 and 6 AM. He rounded up a '68 442 as the getaway car, a Colt Python 357 full load blank firing replica, a skateboard and really good actors. The kind of film any 20 year old would dream of making. And the kind of film 3 patrol cars would show up at 2 nights in a row responding to reports of armed robberies.
Who done it? |
Until TOMORROW.
