Talk Me To Death

This journals my process leading up to shooting my award-winning short film, "Talk Me To Death," at the 2006 Duke City Shootout competition. “Talk Me To Death” is about a funeral where everybody’s busy talking on the phone, texting or watching WWF on an iPod. Meanwhile, the reverend and the widow of the deceased are still hammering out the terms of the service, as it’s going on.

Back In Duke City

Flew in this morning and met with my director of photography, my mentor and the casting director. We got a great kid to play the dead guy's nephew. He really popped. Ran around looking for cell phones for my characters. The tie for the dead guy came in (a whale tie) not sure it's going to work, more than $30 later. It's hit and miss some time. But I'm excited to be back, and this time, it's movie making time.

Need some rest. Tomorrow, shooting something for a promo postcard. Hope the elements all come together.
