This is day two shooting my first short film, Impasse. I have never experienced such a range of emotion watching my words come to life. I can’t wait to share the lessons I’ve learned in Balls of Steel.
Since pictures say 1000 words, here are some of day one shooting Alice’s home scenes, and day two at the coffeehouse.
One immediate lesson I’ll share is get an on-set still photographer. PR pics are a must. We have the honor of having Juliana Bellini as ours.
Now back to the shoot…

Interesting — I’ve been so focused on writing and selling, I’ve never considered that filming would be stressful … Brava, though, on making it to celluloid!
