Director Statement

The motive here was to create something that was the result of learning from past flaws when making a film. I use to be worried about the length of a film rather than the quality, I also learned a lot about pacing from my previous films, acting and all the steps that are taken into creating a film. This may be shorter than my other films, but I think it's a good example of high quality entertainment that my previous films could learn from.
