I recount the genesis of my short film, "Lone Mountain," starting from its humble beginnings as a college student project. I delve into the challenges and hurdles faced during its production by trying to shoot it on an anamorphic projection lens, ultimately leading to the heartbreaking realization of being unable to complete it at that time.
However, as fate would have it, this setback was merely a stepping stone towards a remarkable turn of events. I reveal the pivotal moment when the tides shifted in my favor-an unexpected win of the prestigious Montana Big Sky grant. This transformative opportunity breathed new life into "Lone Mountain," providing the means and resources to revisit this passion project with a substantial budget behind it. At least for me...
Prepare to witness the behind-the-scenes magic as I navigate the revival of "Lone Mountain," showcasing the dedication, hard work, and sheer perseverance that propelled this project from a college setback to a remarkable comeback.
