Reflections from Slice

One of the best parts of filmmaking is getting to collaborate with talented people and create something meaningful together. But great films aren’t built on creativity alone. They’re built on preparation, communication, and adaptability.

Here are a few lessons from shooting Slice:

1. Have a reference film.
Our references were Love Lies Bleeding and Showgirls. They became our creative North Star. (See last slide)

2. Define your visual language.
Handheld, Steadicam, locked-off—every choice should support the story. (See last slide)

3. Build a deck.
Visual references help everyone get on the same page faster. (See last slide)

4. Bring your own meal.
If you have dietary restrictions or a sensitive stomach, don’t leave it to chance.

5. Test your ideas.
The best place to fail is before the shoot. (Slide 6)

6. Be kind.
Long days are easier when you’re someone people enjoy working with.

7. Expect pivots.
Something will go wrong. Be ready to adapt.

8. Explore.
I always say, “Good things happen when I go outside.” Try the unusual angle. Take the risk. You might find something special.

What’s the best lesson you’ve learned from working on a short film?

We did it! 

SLICED is wrapped (been wrapped). Took our time to catch our breath over here, but this one deserves praise. 

Every indie short is its own mini miracle and this one is no different. This work was impossible without the support of so many artists and collaborators. Here’s a shoutout to the folks who stitched this together and believed in a story that centers Washington DC youth. Our communities are our responsibility and the creatives who showed up to pull this off proved that point. Grateful and humbled by the generosity and talent of this stellar cast & crew. On to post-production!

Inspired by real stories of DC youth and the pandemic of violence affecting this population.
