As the director of "The Pills", this project has been a bold attempt for me. Working with unfamiliar actors, action scenes, dual-camera setups, and more, were all challenges that I had previously attempted separately but had never applied to the same project. The most challenging part, however, was working as a team. I am accustomed to handling all aspects of a project from pre-production to post-production, which has the benefit of having maximum control over the project. However, an individual's power is limited, and stepping out of one's comfort zone and trusting others' work is a valuable experience.
