We only shot for three days and on the last day, it was a lot of pressure because we had to finish up and he was very understanding as he’s a great filmmaker and he enjoyed the process. After seeing the rough cut of the film, he said he loved it and that it came out super. He enjoyed it more and we loved working with him.
