Envisioning the Casey Neistat School of Filmmaking: Epic Short Film

If you have not heard of Casey Neitstat yet, go check him out and come back when your done, it might take awhile but it will be well worth it. The guy is a serious talent in the film and social media world, with his own unique style and technique to movie making. This short film by Tom Bryan is an outstanding example of what each of us should be doing with our creative work. Bryan has plans to create a short film each month for the next 12 and has started it off with a bang. 

With the help of a solid script, great scouting, and a few friends, he was able to pull off the majority of the shooting for the film in one long day. I have a lot of respect for filmmakers, as a designer by day and in more recent years a freelance photographer, I know how much work goes into the life of a creative. Movies and film are a totally different beast, as I have found out in starting my own YouTube channel to document both personal and professional aspects of my life. Props to you Bryan, I can't wait to see the next in the series of shorts. Be sure to check out the behind the scenes video below as well, he goes through planning and issues as the shoot evolved.
