there’s something terrifying and electric about pulling frames out of my head and pinning them to a corkboard where other people can actually see them. for months this film has just existed in the blue glow of my laptop at 3am, a secret thing i kept tweaking and second-guessing and protecting like it would shatter if the sun hit it. but yesterday i printed out reference stills and taped them up next to my storyboard sketches, and suddenly it felt like a real movie instead of a fever dream. the notebook’s a mess of scribbled shot lists and emotional cues i can barely read anymore—my handwriting devolves into hieroglyphics after midnight—but there’s something sacred about the chaos. my dad’s old light meter is in the corner there too, even though i mostly use my phone now. it just feels right to have it watching over the process, like a little talisman. anyway, this is me finally exhaling and letting the thing breathe in daylight. hope it doesn’t spook. 🎥✨
