Famous Quotes and Proverbs

«It was an amazing experience to premiere in Cleveland. Not only are the festival programmers and staff incredibly warm, hospitable and supportive, they showcase many films that other festivals are afraid to embrace. The real testament, however, comes from the people of the greater Cleveland area who are amazingly nice, friendly and open-minded.»

«The idea of shooting at a camp is ideal in many ways but difficult in others. Shooting a documentary can be time consuming because you don't always know where your ending is and how or when it's going to come about, but when you shoot at a camp, there's a finite number of days in which the story takes places so there's a bit of a built-in format.»

Time flies by very quickly and it's important to be pointing your camera in the right direction or you can miss something. Because of this, we shot around the clock and got very little sleep. We had to be up before the campers and went to sleep hours after they did in order to prepare for the next day. It can be exhausting. Besides providing a beautiful setting, the best thing about filming at a camp is that something transformational often happens when the participants arrive. They are more open and honest because they don't have outside distractions.»
