ROAD, Don't look back in anger


Stephen Press

Recommended Posts

I was having a moan about an 80min continuous roll digital feature called ROAD I shot back in 2000. I just found a news item shot about it. See if you can tell just how unhappy I was. They used footage from the first run, so its not art (yes I know the verticals.) By the third run it was looking a lot better and I?d had a tantrum at the ?actors? about learning the few key cue lines they had so the end product was as good as it was ever going to be...

Moan = complain. I can?t remember what topic it was under but I was running over some of the problems I had on that shoot? oh boy did I have problems on that shoot! 6 years latter I?m still mad over it? let it go Stephen, let it go.

The reporter was very kind to me and as a result of the positive press I got lots of paid work. So it wasn?t all bad.
