Ashley
Yeah. And for our users are just getting the audio. Yeah, he put up the story. Oh, yeah, you’ll be able to get that on YouTube. Yeah, if you want to see that. So, you’re an artist, you have some background, to be able to draw.
Jamie Grefe
Well, yes, a little bit, but let me let me be clear that will never make it into a movie, the drawing, a storyboard drawing will never make it into the movie. What I will do is I will make a shot list like a girl looks into the mirror and cries, you know, whatever. It’ll just be like some action that happens. She walks across the room as if she’s moving as if a great force is holding her back. She moves across the room as if a great force is holding her back. OK, that’s a shot. I can shoot that. That’s something I can shoot. She moves across the room. A great force pushes against her. OK, then she has to do that. Now, I love slow cinema, so I love things that are slow. So as we do it, I actually talk very fast, like on this podcast, for example. But when I’m shooting, I like to enter into a space where we’re going to do this very slowly. We’re going to do this very just simply, but take your time, you know. And so, I feel like there’s a great unfolding of creativity in that moment. So, I’ll have a lot of those, actually. But. We had one day. I can’t be bothered to be checking my shot list all day if I’m trying to shoot two movies. And I’m getting in there at nine and I’m getting out of there at nine. And we have a mansion that I’ve never been to. And we have people coming in. I’ve never met. I have to think on my feet now, luckily. And, you know, not everybody has this luxury when you’re playing with somebody else’s money. But I had my producers complete faith, right? Complete trust, complete faith, complete trust. Go do whatever you want. Like, I don’t even care what you do. Make two movies. It’s like, OK.
