“And it’s a wrap!”
“And it’s a wrap!”
Those final words of principal photography on “Louder Than Words” were spoken at 8:40pm on Sunday, September 23, 2012. After two long but very productive days, we were done. The shoot went extremely well. We loved the experience of working together and watching our two lead actors, Drew Moore and Catherine Rainville, bring the characters to life.
It’s hard to believe that this part is over after all the prep work and planning. For me, as the writer and director of this project, it was a dream come true. It has been the best experience of my life so far. I have learned so much from this journey and it reinforces the fact that this is what I’m meant to do. Nothing else in my working life has been as rewarding as collaborating with the cast and crew to create something that I am immensely proud of. I can’t wait to get it finished and out into the world.
Along the way so many people supported and helped to make this happen, including all our financial contributors, volunteer extras, the Film Office at Invest Ottawa, Mensour Talent Agency, Sparks Street, and many more. And of course our two amazingly talented lead actors. Drew and Catherine were wonderful to work with; I’m excited to see what they will do in the future. It takes a village to make a movie and I am truly grateful to everyone for giving their support and talents.
Now we are putting it all together in the editing room and getting it finished so we can submit it to film festivals. We will also be designing the posters and t-shirts to get them out to the contributors who are receiving those perks.
