Inside the Untold Journey of Creating a Hit Movie Far from Hollywood Lights with Adam Burke and Jud Nichols
Ashley
How do you guys approach genre requirements and where was there some things you studied and learned writing a psychological thriller, are there some things that you’ve noticed in the genre that you can pass along to us? Again, just how do you approach sort of genre requirements?
Adam Burke
I think that we didn’t want to write anything that was so super genre specific. We wanted to be, like I said earlier, vibe was really important to us and it’s such a kind of a generic word, but the aesthetic and the feel and the sound of this thing was something that we knew we had in our heads. And Judd, you can probably talk more about this as well, but I remember when there was a scene that we shot first because we knew that if we could nail this scene, we could get the look and the feel of this right, then we had something. And that was, it wasn’t necessarily a psychological thriller moment. There was like a horror-esque feel to it, but it was also just like the coloring and the sound design and the pacing. Like that was something, there wasn’t even any dialogue in that moment, but I think that that was something that was extremely useful for us, if that makes any sense. Judd, you can probably elaborate more.
