Hi Will, really liked the short film. How long does something like this take to create? I assume it starts with writing a script and then all the way to when it's ready for release.
Yeah so since the script was only ten pages it was written over the course of a day or so. But then revisions for a few weeks after that. Then pre-production, raising money, casting, hiring ur crew, that all takes at least a couple months. Then the shoot was only two days. And then about 6 month in post production editing, and then a few months trying to figure out how to release it! So all in, about a year and change.
I never quite thought about how much time goes into things other than filming.
