Director Statement

The Door is an experiment in creating a short film in a very minimalist fashion. I based it loosely on one of my graphic shorts (drawn by Sid Kotian). I went out with a camera and filmed it in one afternoon. Edited it with some stock footage and finished it in a day, keeping the pre, production, and post of this short as low surface area as possible.
