Everyday I guess !

Good preparation and do not rewrite the end of your film depending on production.

We did this film with our hands and shot it in one night, it was tough.

I think it’s important to know who is your audience and what we should told them and how. The only thing we want is to seduce that audience right ?

Film festival are perfect to get some kind of recognition 🙂
