Set WIP

Pictures of the set WIP. Pretty much done. I do need some siding for the corners. I used craft wood from Michael's for the window and door frames, as well as the boards inside the wall. The doorknob was interesting. I had a knob whose screw was too short. Thankfully Bill (swiftly becoming my power tools guru) was able to use an interesting drill bit to carefully thin the 1/4" wood until the screw reached. Forgot to take a picture while the knob was attached. I used No More Nails as my glue. Faster drying than the the wood glue I initially purchased. Once again, thanks Bill. So much is owed to you.

This is the cut shown at the presentation. I'm taking a step back from it for now, getting some feedback, and in a month I'll return, give it more of an aesthetic, edit a few shots, and then begin submitting it to festivals. Thanks to everyone for their positive reception. You've made me so glad I made this film. Thanks especially to Megan Parker, whose friendship kept me going, even when I know she was having a hard time as well. Extra thanks to Martin Rose, without whom I would never have managed to pull these ideas together, and whose openess and discussions kept me excited about the project. Making this film, and more importantly, finishing it, was incredibly important to me and I almost can't believe it's over. Cheers to everyone.
