The Moral Life - Production finished


We finished production today on "The Moral Life." After two long days of filming we are done. It was pretty amazing we were able to get all the footage in two days. Overall shooting went well besides the thousands of airplanes that were flying overhead and the soccer club that decided to have practice next to us. The footage looks great and our makeup artist did a kickass job. Erica looked so beat up and if we didn't have Katie then this could not have been possible. One of the great moments of the shoot was the fight scene. Instead of using quick cutting to show punches and kicks I decided I wanted to shoot the entire thing in one take. Surprisingly it came out looking really good. The actors look like they are in a real fight and as I circle them their body's block the fake punches and kicks. I'm not sure the style in which I'm going to edit the film, however, I am currently working on that and it will be done within two weeks.

Synopsis: God is dead... Louise after a long day of work is walking home. She is making here way through an empty parking lot when she is jumped by Phil. Phil beats her and takes everything. She wakes up in the morning to find Death sitting on a curb eating an apple. He talks about what reality is and takes Louise through Neitzsche's Eternal Return of the Same. Louise must battle between what she believes to be real and what Death brings to her; to add into the mix, Phil comes back and finds her alone, again.
