Production

Tucker and McCorkle first began working on the film shortly after meeting at an investment banking firm. The two decided to create their own low-budget film using Hi-8 and Mini DV video cameras, filming in public housing projects and performing editing on a personal computer. McCorkle also taught himself rudimentary special effects techniques for the film, stating that "Just because we’re low-budget doesn’t mean it can’t be realistic—at least movie-realistic." Apart from being the writer, director, and make-up artist, McCorkle also served as the grip and caterer.

Famous quotes containing the word production:

    The myth of unlimited production brings war in its train as inevitably as clouds announce a storm.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)

    ... this dream that men shall cease to waste strength in competition and shall come to pool their powers of production is coming to pass all over the earth.
    Jane Addams (1860–1935)

    From the war of nature, from famine and death, the most exalted object which we are capable of conceiving, namely, the production of the higher animals, directly follows. There is grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers, having been breathed into a few forms or into one; and that, whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been, and are being, evolved.
    Charles Darwin (1809–1882)
