As those of you in New York know, I’ve pretty much removed myself from the world for the last month or so, trying to complete this rough cut (except my birthday – I just had to party that night). I am ITCHING to be done. Not in a bad way though, more like – I can almost feel what this film will be like when it’s done but I also know the months of work that lie ahead before I get to that stage. It’s a great feeling when all the footage you’ve assembled starts to feel like a ‘real’ movie. When you momentarily forget that you were on set, that you’ve already seen so-and-so make that face, that you shot the 19th scene on Day 1 and the 1st scene on Day 20.
a) I miss being on set and making movies with my best friends. b) Priscillia Vidal, Chris Modoono, Deniz Barisik and of course, Gabriel Frye-Behar have been absolutely indispensable in the editing process and keep me going on days when I just want to go on an extended holiday. c) We should have a final cut by the end of summer and d) SUMMER!! Time to get a haircut and make another movie.
Lots of love,
Bornila
