“It ended up being a bigger commitment and much larger in scope than the producer had initially thought, and so I ended up having to delay the project and it ended up being a good thing, because I got more time to revise my storyboards. I had more time coming up after doing this other project. I started looking for a new producer, and a couple good producers [Lisa Barrett McGuire, Amanda Cryer, Jason Dolan, Hal Duncan, Andrew Napier, James Szajda] became involved and they started helping me gather the crew and finding a different d.p. [Pawel Pogorzelski], and he was great. So it was pretty much script, storyboards, producers, cinematographer, actors.”
