THE WAY WE WERE by Devin McKay

Here is my film that premiered at the Atlanta Film Festival! This entire experience has been nothing short of extraordinary. I'm super grateful to have shown my work alongside 10 other incredible filmmakers.

Fun Fact: My team filmed this THE NIGHT BEFORE the deadline. Started at 9pm. Finished shooting by 12:30am. Edited until 4:30am. Turned in by 10:25am.

You can't make that turnaround with everyone. Luckily, I had great people who I could trust.

Thank you @hettywho @spencerwastaken @averytalksaboutstuff and @nsalas810 for bringing my crazy little dream to life.

And thank you @kick.the.ladder for always giving me the space to experiment.
