Description
Making a micro-budget film in a short span of time may feel like an impossible task. What would you say if we told you that these limitations actually make the filmmaking process easier? How is it possible to have more freedom when you are dealing with more restrictions?
In today’s episode, No Film School’s Charles Haine, GG Hawkins, Jason Hellerman speak with filmmakers Matt Hirschhorn and Eric Cohen to discuss:
The origin of Wine Club and how Matt and Eric reverse engineered the film
How the limitations and parameters of shooting a micro-budget film is liberating
Staying calm in the face of a literal storm during a rain out in California
Cultivating a ‘no assholes’ policy during filming
Having the entire film edited by the Second AC who had no prior editing experience
Why they are considering self distribution
Their trick for shooting very quickly
Not knowing how the cast would work together before filming
Attending film school in North America as an immigrant
Memorable Quotes
“You can get the best out of you, when you know what you can’t do.” [8:17]
“Instead of overthinking and suffocating the story, it’s letting the story evolve and become what it wants to be.” [10:17]
“This kid ended up editing the entire movie.” [15:19]
“Getting that double coverage in one set up was so critical. It let us capture so much, so quickly.” [26:31]
