The Motive Photos

I’m about half done with production of my third short film. It’s called ‘The Motive’ and I am writer/producer/director/shooter. I usually choose to be my own shooter because I have yet to find someone better than me that is reliable and will work for free. I’ve been cinematographer on about 10 short films total, including the three i’ve directed. It is a chore to shoot and direct at the same time but I tend to trust my actors to find and become the character. It helps that I use MFA actors from the Drama Department at the University. They are always great.

So here are some still frames from the footage I’ve shot so far and also some production stills from behind the scenes. Many more pics available ||here||

Starr - I can’t wait to see this movie…I know almost all the actors in it. Yeay Kendrick!

Rainer - It was a tough day at work. Wait a second…where do these guys live? Alaska in the summer? The sunlight is flooding the bar. They either live way up north or are playing hookie and getting sloppy early.

kendrick - Welcome to the world of filmmaking. I forgive you for your ingnorance. The most critical element of photography is light. Without light, you can’t take pictures and you can’t make movies. So I had to shoot the scene in the daytime so that I would have enough light to see the scene.

Also, it is stupid to assume people never sit at a bar during daylight hours. It is stupid to assume people wouldn’t go to the bar when they got off work at 5. It is stupid to assume it gets dark before 6:00pm which is appromixately when this scene takes place. It is stupid to assume a lot of things just based on these few pictures, yet you manage to keep making stupid assumptions so I guess there’s only one reasonable conclusion to make from that. I’ll assume you can guess it…
