Session
Fear/Love
This year I will be talking about the six month process behind writing, directing, editing and post production of a short film entitled Fear/Love that I am currently finishing.
I will also touch on moving away from entirely animation based pieces into full live action directing and also be speaking about the creation of the soundtrack which is a joint collaboration between Ben Lukas Boysen aka Hecq and Cello player Lucio Amanti.
