1 Page Review-TS

When I was developing a script for BPA, it took me time. I spen nearly a month and a half just perfecting the script. If 1 little detail changes, alot of the time changed everything. Going back and changing the story, or changing the setting, or changing the mood. I had to go back and re-write it over and over again. Its a long process. I think I started over twice maybe 3 times.
The next step was focusing on props and pictures, and effects to go along with it. Just like William Goldman said, "Nobody knows anything...". I knew nothing of using Adobe After Effects or Premeire. But through a long process I ended up using Photoshop to edit the photos, 3D Studio Max to develope the life like city. iMovie to run the video as well as add some small effects, and Soundtrack pro to produce the audio effects of wind and the city simulation, as well as a F.B.I slash Law and Order theme. Then came the casting and it was incredibly hard to get the actors well trained. It ran well with my original actors Mr. Fitzer and Oscar Garcia. Oscar really did well to express the character, and Fitzer did good at playing the interrogating cop. After so many takes It ended up Being Matt Dillon playing the kid who has been interrogated. He was a last minute replacement due to audio difficulties on the film. But as an end result I enjoyed what had came out. It could always get better but I was thinking about sitting on a comfy couch and eating capn' crunch just like the pro's.
