Private Project

Tom Wells_WILLIAM WELLS (APEKONIT)

Assigned to me as a 'rush tape' (day before deadline). No sides, just a character breakdown and some tasks to complete. I read up on the real Apekonit ('carrot top', a white American raised by Native Americans), wrote a short sequence of events and a packing list, and scouted possible filming locations via satellite imagery. The next day, I rolled out of town with fellow actor Andrew 'Ace' Gabriel on camera.
