"Back to basic 3-minute horror with just the 2 of us" ... is what we love most about your channel, David. You're the only filmmaker in Hollywood who is able to make your own movies (very quality & fabulous too) while being in isolation at home. So very much admire YOU and Lotta. You're true blue filmmakers! Loving the short films and these BTS movies /masterclasses in filmmaking you're sharing with us too. I can't tell you how much I appreciate your channel and you - as a movie lover and a filmmaker - David!

"Good enough" is something all filmmakers need to learn, including myself. It's so easy to see every challenge on a project as something that needs to be completely conquered. Instead there's always another way, a simpler way to do it. Love your channel!

It's nice to know that a professional director also wants to bash his head against the wall when things go horribly wrong. Guess that never changes just need to problem solve like you said. 👌

[@klatchabobby]

To think, massive directors like David still make short films on the same camera I own. This really helps independent film makers, to know that even if they don't own something like an Alexa Mini, they can still make really good looking films.

[@JoeJWalker]

I would just like to say thank you for going out of your way to show us the process behind not only your shorts but also your features, as an aspiring filmmaker these videos are really effective and bring an informative view point on what you do. Your guidance doesn't go unnoticed and I appreciate you giving us these amazing insights for all of these years.

Oh dang! That seems like EXACTLY what the UV project modifier should be good for?? I'd super bet it's a dependency issue caused by targeting the empty (my guess: it expects the camera itself to have the animation data when it's calculating the texture coordinates). Also- thanks for putting so much work into these, man! Most inspiring thing I've seen in ages.

[@anhnhvn]

Hey it's Ian Hubert!

[@antlerstusksvideography9733]

Holy hell, you managed to make the making of to a horror movie into an actual horror movie as well. The stuff with the empty hard drive had me pause the video in shock. More effective than any monster I could think of. By the way, great film. Keep on with it. It's always worth it in the end.

[@Jabberwocky7890]

I'm a freelance graphic designer and that often leads to breakdowns about my projects not turning out the way I want them to. Let me just say that your BTS videos have calmed me down more than once before. Mistakes are so easy to edit out and never talk about, but you choose to show all the troubleshooting you go through, and that teaches me more about the creative industry than any class could ever do. Glad Påsk, David!

[@focusmedia2465]

Damn this gave me so much anxiety at the end. I’ve had very similar things happen and it’s good to know that I’m not alone in my struggles. I hope your tooth is ok for now. Stay safe you two! Thank you for all of your hard work on this, it’s an invaluable insight into the struggles and fun of filmmaking. 🤙

[@AndresArosemena]

"and then my tooth fell off" hahahahah I really LOVE how you share ALL the problems you have while making a short and HOW you got through it. We as an audience of creators can identify with you even though you have already "made it" (shooting real Hollywood films). That mini breakdown near the end makes as know that the famous impostor syndrome does not go away that easily. I also like the theme of the video about some things being "good enough", some people can take it as a mediocre attitude but as the saying goes, "done is better than perfect". A lot of us get stuck in the "it's not perfect" and don't finish anything, and sometimes don't even start it!!

[@DanteYewToob]

This might sound wierd, but I like that you take a Nintendo approach to these cool concepts. Nintendo is famous for introducing a mechanic, like throwing a hat and starting simple; throw it at a coin to collect it, and then escalating ideas and functions until you have a fully formed and versatile mechanic you can build an entire game around. You do this with these shorts and it's why they feel so good! You introduce something, like a closet or shadow, give us an example of how it works; by picking up a shadow, or seeing hangars duplicate. You then escalate a bit with test of it's abilities or limits by copying a doll or throwing a blanket, and then by the end it's a fully formed versatile and awesome idea that could easily carry an interesting story. Amazing work! People love Nintendo games for a reason... you should be proud that you instinctively work and think like a billion dollar beloved company!

[@AllenLopez]

You’re the best man. This really helped me during the editing of my current short, because damn. It’s cursed as well. Several months shooting this damn thing and I’ve wanted to quit so many times.

Oh god, the harddrive! My heart sank when you couldn't find the files! 21 years ago, six months of CG modelling and animating, renders that took 3 hours a frame, 18 hour days, I got the 1999 Australian World Con opening finished a couple of days out. Had it on a removeable drive, the file was massive. We had nothing big enough to back it up. Sent it around to friend to get it dumped to VHS - drive was completely blank when it got there. The engine in our van was under the front seats, and the electromagnetic field from the engine had completely blanked the drive. Rebuilt what I could of the opening from the little bits of footage I still had on the other smaller drive, and re-rendered from the assets I still had that hadn't been deleted. Wasn't a patch on the original, but no one watching was any the wiser, and what they saw looked like a finished concept. Perfection is the enemy of good, and sometimes good is the enemy of finished.

[@ElmarPinero]

I really enjoy watching David's shortfilm even though i dont like watching horrors it scareds me a lot but watching davids horror helps me grow as a filmmaker and learn more

I'm a film teacher doing Zoom at the moment, and I'm definitely showing this to my class tomorrow. Love your stuff, keep up the great work both in and out of Hollywood! Also, with your computer: 1) GPU. Invest in a good GPU. I just got an RTX 2080 Super and it's working wonders. If you CAN, get at least a 1660 Ti, or RTX 2060 Super for your rig. this will pay instant dividends, trust me. Actually, I don't know how old your computer is, but if you got an extra $600 bucks, you could probably upgrade the entire thing (a Ryzen 7 3700x, AM4 Motherboard, at least 16GB of ddr4 3000mhz ram, a cheap case, and a $250 dollar graphics card). I'd like to think you can afford more, BUT, TBH, for little video edits and a decent blender render, that's about the price point you're looking at. ;)

[@neokenshinx]

Aww man David... I just want to give you a hug after hearing all of that. I've always enjoyed your shorts and your behind the scenes content is great. I want to honestly thank your for sharing your breakdown with us too. I'm starting week 4 stuck at home, I have almost all the same equipment you used for this film here with me, and I have not been able to get myself to create... anything. Just feeling stuck creatively right now. Cue imposter syndrome, "the world is ending anyway, who cares", "I suck", etc. Hearing about you hitting all those obstacles, pushing through everything, and (perhaps most importantly) knowing when to say, "good enough" is inspiring. I've been doing shorts for almost 20 years (no major successes but a couple of awards here and there) and I think the two things I've learned the most are 1) how to properly estimate how long things are going to take and 2) When something is good enough. Otherwise you'll just keep tweaking it forever. Anyway, sorry for the long-winded comment. TLDR: Thank you for sharing this whole process, thank you for producing incredibly imaginative & effective shorts, I know those feels, and you kick ass!

[@naverich4603]

Hah I love how you completely change to swedish accent when pronouncing Lotta's name and then go back to your american one...or is it american?

[@RisingFlameProductions]

You are honestly one of my favorite directors now. It's amazing that your BTS videos are just as good as the actual shorts themselves! You are an incredibly talented director and I have so much respect for you, especially in regards to how you take the time to put something like this together to share your own learning experiences even though you're a Hollywood director now. And I've also had my moments where I've freaked out while putting a film together. And you're right in that you just gotta take a deep breath, calm down, and keep going, because we usually critique ourselves much more than necessary and the end film usually always turns out to be better than we initially might think. Never lose hope in those tough moments, David, and to any other aspiring film makers out there! Keep pushing on! It's your passion for this that enables you to succeed!

It's been said plenty of times already but genuinely, hearing you talk about your frustrations trying to put this together is so comforting and reassuring. Thank you.

[@tisiclem1611]

The fear of the unknown is a kind of fear every human being possess. I read that somewhere, from a book, I think. What I've always liked about your short films is that you understand what we're all afraid, and you use that to your advantage. You don't try to dumb down the character in your story for the sake of horror. Like how your wife in this short quickly knew what was going on, and threw the blanket over the shadow as a way to make it disappear. It's a small, but brilliant action! The problem with horror movies these days is that they set the movie at night, in the dark, without using the dark to its advantage. There's usually nothing more than just jump scares that happen. With you, it's different. You don't put in all these darkness "just because", there's a purpose behind it. I don't know if you recognise me, but I used to go by the name Roberto Davidson. I'm so glad and happy for your success. This may sound cliche, but I've always known you've got a bright future ahead of you. Oh, and say hi to your wife for me :) her acting is wonderful, as always. ... Sorry if that last part sounds creepy.
