Abandoned, Not Finished
For those who remember my trials and tribulations with my short film (see a few posts ago for details), I'm happy to report that the struggles are at an end. I'm sure many filmmakers feel the same way after completing a long an arduous project. No matter how you feel about the resulting product, you're just glad it's over.

The film, ultimately, didn't turn out as well as I'd hoped. There are many things I would do differently, if I had the chance to do it again. It's been a great "learning experience" for me. (As I'm fond of saying, I've had so many "learning experiences" I'm practically Solomon...)

Great projects, as they say, aren't finished but rather abandoned. I've taken it as far as it can go.

'Til next time,

-Ian
