Hey all,

I have just been involved with one of the largest short films of my life, and wanted to share it with everyone.

We just wrapped yesterday, so stills, footage, and all that jazz or on it's way.

The film is in French, and i am doing my best to translate the information for you all.

Where can we find spirit to survive when everything else is dead?

Synopsis:

In 2013, a cataclysm occurs. Joel flees the city and takes refuge in the countryside. Having only newspaper for information and an old guitar to point out the world to him which he already knew, Joel holds out in spite of an omnipresent loneliness. As his hope disappears more and more, Joel holds on to each day as death inevitably awaits him. When all seems lost, Joel finds another survivor, Chloé, and both hold each other striving to survive.

Not exactly, this is not a film for school, I pitched the project in november, the jury rejected and it was planned to happened that way in the end since we wanted to shoot digital and more 20 minutes film.

So, we decided to shoot it anyway, we did all the pre-prod from late october till mid-january and we went in a house up north of montreal (canada) for 6 days. Awesome shoot, good team, and the rushes are so niceeeee!

I'll let you know more when I'll have time, which means, not before march!
 
w00t w00t. i know it won't happen, but it would be soo cool to show them something for the concordia film fest at the end of the year screening.

That sucks. Makes more sense now. So you guys are doing this on top of a film for school? How'd you find time to film this!?! lol

I was supposed to be an extra. Couldn't make it in the end. It sucks cause I would have loved to have seen it getting made.
 
how did we find the time? Well, we wanted to make erics film so badly, and the fact that film school denied it's creation just fueled our own desires to see this bad boy come alive. But yes, it did kill us. No sleep, and constant work when we returned. But it was worth it.

Eric.. I like u.
 
exhausting adventure. 9 days of shooting on 11 days. Not much sleep, around 5 hours per night...

and i'm still doing damn storyboards for another film I'm shooting this weekend... god, I can't wait wait for the moment everything will be done.
