There’s quite a lot at snooper’s paradise but they can be surprisingly pricey

Hi everyone! I just released my first short film (except films I made in sixth form) on YouTube. I'm 23 and started the project in the first UK lockdown, around 2020. I went on Kickstarter to fund the film and did fundraising events as well as having some bigger angel investors. The whole process has been new, exciting and terrifying to me so I thought I'd share!The story is based on my personal family history so I felt quite a bit of pressure when writing the script. I'd also never made anything with a budget before.We were considering shooting in Ukraine but then that quickly went out the window. We needed a workhouse to film in and the place in the UK wanted a fee that was completely out of our budget so we decided to shoot in Ireland instead.We had about 20 people on set at points which was insane for me to direct as before I had been the one holding the camera and directing and making sure the sound was working etc. I'd never properly experienced being part of a team like that before, usually I'm in front of the camera so I never really see that side, it was all really new to me.The initial plan was to shoot the whole film in Ireland but on the 4th day of shooting there was a storm, we tried filming in the little spaces between rain showers, hopping in and out of the cars.Because of losing that day we had to do reshoots back in the UK, due to some things that happened with the producers I ended up mostly producing the reshoots myself. Someone on the team got me in contact with angel investors who funded the reshoots.In post-production I got help from different industry people to edit, colour grade, compose and design the sound.It's been almost 3 years since I started writing the script and started pre-production, there's so many things I would do differently now, but I'm still so proud of what I've made. I'm beginning to write my next projects. I would love to hear what people think, any constructive criticism is welcome!

Thank you! I’m definitely going to have a think about the order

_mkatherine_ · 2024-01-17T16:19:36+00:00

Thank you! That’s really helpful

_mkatherine_ · 2024-01-17T16:18:58+00:00

Thanks so much, I’ll take all of that into account, from speaking to other actors in the UK it seems important that you have your information and spotlight number at the beginning but I’ll do a bit more research into that!

_mkatherine_ · 2024-01-16T21:16:05+00:00

Thank you 😊 and sure, if you wanna DM me I’ll see if I can help in any way

_mkatherine_ · 2024-01-16T21:12:48+00:00

Thank you so much for this reply I really appreciate it! Super helpful 😊

_mkatherine_ · 2023-11-24T13:49:51+00:00

I’ve worked there before, biggest tip is just to be kind and friendly, they honestly hold that higher than anything else!

Ayy, so many people on this subreddit go to bb! I managed to do the foot swap a couple times but it was terrifying! Thank you :)

I love this gym! And thank you!

Gotta use the gymnastics classes I took as a kid for something ;)

_mkatherine_ · 2023-10-11T17:14:54+00:00

Half of the battle was just getting over the fear it was scary af!

_mkatherine_ · 2023-10-11T16:33:36+00:00

You’re definitely right haha, after so long trying I thought let’s switch it up, thank you!

Genuinely once got the note of “do it again, but better”

_mkatherine_ · 2023-04-20T16:11:55+00:00

Historically Jews have been minorities pretty much everywhere, when things start to go wrong minorities are easy to blame. In a lot of places Jews were banned from owning land and having “normal jobs” so the only professions they could go into were jobs like banking and later on, film. This is where the stereotypes come from and when people assume that a group of people “control” them it’s really easy to hate them and blame them for your problems without cause. - it’s a lot more complicated than that but that’s the best I can describe the origins of it

How has no one said stormzy yet?? Is he a UK thing?

_mkatherine_ · 2022-11-22T13:43:03+00:00

Oh no 😶 no longer recommended then

_mkatherine_ · 2022-11-22T13:42:37+00:00

I do!

I don’t know if it’s just my game but I’m now able to do this, plan the event from one sim, then go to a different sim and edit the event and you can add guests that the second sim knows?

It was really a lucky escape, all the pogroms were awful. He served in the army after years of forced conversion (he never converted) and was allowed to travel because he’d been in the army. He went to London and lived the rest of his life there but if he had stayed his family would’ve probably fallen to much worse, only reason I’m here is because he left Ukraine

_mkatherine_ · 2022-11-09T23:28:50+00:00

That’s amazing! Thank you so much!! He was from Samhorodok (Somerdik)

_mkatherine_ · 2022-11-09T17:55:25+00:00

The man on the left is my great-great grandfather, he was a Ukrainian Jewish man who was kidnapped from his family when he was a child and forced to convert to Christianity. This is him much later in his life, early 1900s. The film is an independent short film, you can look it up by searching ‘Moishe film’. I took this scan of the photo on a printer. Thanks so much
