how depressing is the fact that the story of how he got the chance to direct Jude Law for an hour for his short film has more views than the short film itself that took him 6 years to make

[@Promatim]

Eh, that's just life as a creator. You have hundreds of projects you spent a week on, and a couple you spent years on. Of course one of the week-long projects is going to do better than anything else you make, it has the numbers advantage. You get used to it.

[@sleepysera]

Because the KZbin algorithm for whatever reason picked this video to show everyone. I've never heard of this channel or am particularly interested in short films (or movies in general) and still KZbin recommendations was like "you HAVE to watch this this is the most interesting thing ever!!" so I clicked on it, and judging by the comments, that's how almost everyone came to this video. The actual short film this is about wasn't as lucky, and only people who are interested in short movies in the first place are gonna move onto the actual video from here, not everyone who got this in their recommended.

[@C4Vendetta]

The fact he saw it and went for it meant he liked it. He’s not a starving actor needing to expand his reel, and actors of his caliber won’t risk being in a shit project with little to no pay. It’s not like he had a lot to do, but still.

[@neilruedlinger591]

I haven't tried this myself, but I have heard/read somewhere that a good method of getting an A-List celebrity to appear in a shorther even a full length feature film, is to find actors/actresses who haven't been in a film for a while. Such celebrities are keen to be seen on the screen, and if the project is something that they feel will further their career, they will be most likely to be interested in working with a good project. An actor/actress who is seen in any good role, will boost their chances of being cast in a future Hollywood film. It helps for a producer and/or director to have a portfolio of short films, that the celebrities may be interested in seeing, to get an idea of your works and the quality of the other talent you hire for your projects, and the effectiveness of your production values, look of your films, the sound engineering and directing skills.

Took you SIX YEARS just to make a short!? NO WONDER I haven't made any shorts yet.

[@thatsnodildo1974]

Well from what i can tell is he used a lot of special effects and had a small team working on it. Remember some small game devs take that long sometimes to make a game. Visual effects with a small team take fucking forever to do

[@usernamesmatter]

Just buy shorts from the store

[@edinfific2576]

@@usernamesmatter LOL! That would be A LOT faster!

"Hey Jude" I see what you did there

[@fellowcitizen]

Better still "Hey Dude" Jude loves that

[@gornes2403]

Damn! Jude Law at the end gave me almost the Keanu in Cyberpunk level of surprise.

I think that being critical of oneself is the best quality of being a good director. You're doing a good job!

[@beefknuckles]

Wow this was actually really cool. Love the editing and format and everything

[@Danial9876]

Never seen your videos before nor have I heard from you, but just watching this makes me so DAMN happy for you! As an artist myself I can see how terrifying it is to make these leaps of faith, especially after putting a lot of work into a project. I wonder whether Jude Law was immediately your first choice, or whether there was a lot of trial and error regarding finding that A-list celeb. Regardless, I'm sure your efforts will bring you a crap-ton of success, which you deserve every bit of.

What if I have no friends and suck at social interactions? :(

[@Legendary_Detective-Wobbuffet]

Get a hot friend to do it for you.

Then dont become a director u idiot.

@@shidoshihanzo9819 Wow, you must be a nice person to hang out with.

[@theorz8698]

@@jan861 He should have said it more elegently than that but he is right, to make a film you need to have many connections and know a lot of people. So not to put you down, i would suggest that you pursue another medium of expression in which only talent is required like painting or writing for instance.

[@westnilesnipes]

So the only step is: make friends with someone who knows someone who knows someone. Gotcha. Lol

[@emilywong7425]

This guy really reminds me of Olaf, or some other A-list actor...

[@DanielCiurlizza]

Love this, Colin! Even your behind-the-scenes video has a great story!! 👏👏👏

[@ChrisSmith-bw1nt]

Damn. Looks like Kevin Bacon was close. Lol

"Which includes a cameo by world famous actor tupac" *rewinds* "actor Jude Law" Oooohhhh. Makes a lot more sense.
