7. Creating a Short Film Part 2: The Creative Process - Elijah

Hello friends, welcome back to The Improve Podcast!

This is part 2 of a series where I am documenting the process of creating a short film. In this episode we get to learn a little more about Elijah and his creative journey. I am incredibly excited for this film and hopefully someday you’ll be able to see it!

Of course there is a lot of work to be done between now and then, but you’ll get to go along for the ride!

I am still working on my screenplay. It’s funny hearing me talk about my concerns for completing it before the end of the year as far back as October!

What are your goals for this week? What are your goals for this year? What are you working toward?!

Tell me! :)
