Director Statement

Midnight Jingles was made in around five days by me (Corbin Pitts) and one of my good friends, Warren McCullough. The short was originally going to be twenty minutes following a more sci-fi-thriller aspect to it but due to the tight production schedules, we had to make MAJOR changes. The storyline was quickly thrown together in around two days so it was stressful to make-like all films are.
