Killer's Revenge

After making a feature film that was haphazard at best, I decided it was time to refine my skills and make solid work that would stand up to the test of time. I began scripting "Killer's Revenge" with an idea in my head of the ending. The hardest part came in scripting something that would not rush to the end, but would also not drag its feet in reaching the goal I wanted it to attain. I wanted action, but I wanted the audience to feel for each character, knowing a little of their struggles, yet realizing at the end that they knew nothing about either of them. It was a challenging piece to script, but I am very pleased with the outcome. After writing, it became apparent who the actors should be and where the location needed to be. Production ran very smoothly, as we only spent two days on location and only another week or two in the editing room. The hardest part was getting just the right music to fit the mood. For my composers, that became the biggest challenge, but one that I think they pulled through rather nicely. The only other challenge came when it began to rain during our shoot, and I had to make the decision if we should stay and film in the rain or leave and come back another day, wasting everyone's afternoon. I'm very glad that we decided to stay, as the rain added a much-needed aesthetic to the climax of the film.
