I hope everyone is enjoying the release of our filmette "Good To See You". Dropping some fun facts about the film as you watch!
6-Day Shoot, 3 Hours a Day The entire film was shot over six days, for just three hours each day — all during golden hour in Central Park.
All Four Corners of the Park We filmed in Central Park South, East, West, and North.
The Rainstorm Was Real The unexpected downpour in the film wasn’t planned — it actually happened during a take. We kept rolling. My camera got wet but we used a plastic bag from a bodega to cover it.
Notes App Screenplay The script was written entirely in the Notes app. Zero Final Draft file were harmed in the making of this film.
Shot on a Sony FX3 We used the Sony FX3, shooting at an aperture of f/16 to f/22 to keep everything in deep focus — capturing every face and passerby New Yorker. Also helped as we had no crew, and thus didn't have to pull focus.
Mic’d Ourselves with RØDE Wireless GO II Each actor mic’d themselves before scenes. Dialogue was captured using RØDE GO II mics — simple, mobile, and effective.
Two Scenes Reshot We reshot both the opening scene and the box-emptying scene due to a mic error and a tweak in scripting.
Real-Life Girlfriend Cameo Jonah’s girlfriend, Molly, is the woman Jonah kisses in on the bench fantasy scene.
Sold-Out Premiere in Brooklyn The film premiered to a sold-out crowd in Greenpoint, Brooklyn at the Film Noir Cinema.
Inspired by Fine Art Several shots were inspired by classic paintings. Artists like Claude Monet, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, and John Singer Sargent helped inform the film’s framing and mood.
