"Island"

In less than two weeks I am directing a short scene for my Directing 1 class. The scene is an excerpt from my feature script, and I'm pretty pumped up to do it. I meant to shoot this scene over the summer, but didn't end up doing it due to scheduling and simply being busy with other shoots.
I'm happy that I'm doing it here and now because the two actors in it are the ones I have been picturing for the roles for a little while. We'll see if it lives up to what I'm looking for, but I've wanted both of these guys to play in this for a bit. They both agreed to play their respective roles and that makes me all the more excited.
Another thing that excites me is my uninvolvement in the cinematography of it. I always have shot the things I have directed, and it gets very stressful, very fast. It's time I move on from that. My roommate, Cody, is shooting it, and he's coming up with his own shotlist and everything, and all I have to do is approve it after we go through it.

Filmmaking. Weeeeeeeeeeee!
