  • After a couple of painstaking (but enjoyable) months of miniature building, it was time to finally start filming them. If there ever was a video that demonstrates our incredible professionalism, then surely this is the one.

Your work is astounding and better than most big budget movies. Most people want the public to only see the successes and triumphs. You guys are real! Passionate and show how hard someone needs to work to get magic to spark. Im in awe of you guys and dont ever stop! Youre true film makers

      Yes there is always at least a little bit of post, but in Slice of Life we were doing 10-15 passes for each shot, and here often just one or two. So it was MUCH MORE in camera which was really cool!
