My second project wrapped a couple of days ago, and I realized the importance of pre-production.  Because I scrutinized over storyboards, it really kept the momentum during the shoot. I definitely obsessed over casting.  I auditioned 15 women for the role, but then realized the perfect actress was right under my nose!  Fellow Berkeley Digital classmate, Gina Mooers, jumped in and did a fabulous job!  I was able to have 150% confidence in my cast.  It makes the production less stressful!

I realized the importance of collaboration.  My crew members really took advantage of the stylized lighting I envisioned, and had a ball.  Having a  reliable crew  is more important than I could have imagined.  Our student projects would be nothing without our peers.
