What does it feel like to finish a short film?

Super proud to announce that Alien Echo is in the can and ready to soar out into the world and onto the film festival circuit.

It is done. Woohoo. It is a such a great feeling.

Being an independent filmmaker means editing my films too. This one has been editing on weekends, weeknights and in between cooking meals for my family.

I had the official family watching party today with my wife and kids, just at home doing the TV check, and it looks delightful. I got some wonderful feedback from them, which always means a lot. So I am happy. I think it is as good as it gets.

In creativity, there comes a point where you have to stop tinkering and say it is done.

That moment is not always easy, but it is necessary. You have to let the film go.

A big thank you to everyone involved, the cast and crew who brought Alien Echo together.

And a special shout out to my family for being so patient while this production came together in the edit suite.

Here comes Alien Echo, heading out into the world and onto the film festival circuit.
