You are the blank canvas from which your character gets to live.
A private student of mine recently had an “Aha!” moment in one of our sessions.
I love it when that happens.
It makes me leave the lesson buzzing with excitement - analyzing what it was that brought us to the place where things really became clear for them.
Anyone who has ever produced anything knows the title “producer” can also mean: writer, director, actor, wardrobe, casting director, prop master - you get the picture.
Amongst all those titles, I got the lucky experience of adding editor to my list.
Don’t get me wrong. This was not a one-man job. I have two incredible producers that are part of my team: Ryan Demaree and Peter Marr - and my project would not be what it is today without them.
But that still left a lot of room for some serious growing pains.
