Censored

Sunday, March 22nd, 2009

Censored was sort of a nightmare.  This is actually the second time we’ve shot it.  The first time, everything that could have gone wrong, did go wrong.  The camera that we rented broke because the heads were dirty.  The boom mic didn’t work even though we had tested it just the night before and it was working fine.  The person supposed to get the food dropped the ball and didn’t.  He was also supposed to buy drinks which he didn’t.  One of the actors was late.  I lost my story boards (which always happens.)  We figured out quick fixes to all this stuff but I felt like Censored was such a good concept that it kind of got ripped off.  So I shot it again.  The second shoot went fine but editing was rough.  I sent it off to several film festival.  It got in to 4 of them.  I think it’s a solid short film.  It’s funny, it’s too the point, and it has a good punch line.  It doesn’t really have an explanation, but it doesn’t really need one.  Kristen isn’t topless, she wearing a bright rainbow tube top.  When I asked her “Why the hell do you even have that?”  Her response was “For just such an occasion.”
