WEEKDAY (2020)

2020-06-174m

When my friend Whitney added me to her ABC’s of Quarantine Film Festival lineup in March, I was excited and then immediately thought about the things I didn’t have: a camera, sound equipment, access to other people, fancy skills or experience “like everyone else”...I wanted to make something but figured I probably couldn’t. Then for some reason on May 20th, I decided to think about what I did have: an idea, my cousin’s house to myself for the day, an iPhone and some editing capabilities, and then I just went for it. I learned some new things like: creative endeavors don’t have to come with ~ideal circumstances~ to be worth your time/effort/attention. My letter was W and the only rule was it had to be under 5 minutes :)
