Idle Mist XIII: illegal Editing

When the cameras were taken away we still had a couple of scenes to go, so we rented a cheaper camera for the last couple of scenes. I figured the grittier look and the change of format could be used to bringing a bit of a consciousness to metafictional framework oo the filmmaking itself, which was, in part, the subject of the work... The nexus between dreaming and creative work and the dichotomy between art and the objective perception of the world.

When our time in the university's editing suite was cut short to allow for the school films to make use the institution's equipment, we were politely removed and had to look for another place to finish up. With no funds, I was extatic to find out that the sister of one of our actors worked in a local news channel. At around 2 am I was snuck in and allowed to secretly use the station's equipment to finish putting together the Idle Mist film.
