1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:03,960
Speaker 1: Welcome to Truth Hounds, a production of My Heart Radio.

2
00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:10,000
Speaker 1: I'm Anna and I've been unemployed for two years now,

3
00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:14,360
Speaker 1: so I really have nothing going on. And I'm Kyle

4
00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:18,400
Speaker 1: and in middle school I received the ward most Enthusiastic

5
00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:21,840
Speaker 1: to learn. So that makes me pretty special. And that

6
00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:25,720
Speaker 1: is what makes us the perfect investigative duo. We are

7
00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:29,240
Speaker 1: two friends who love each other very much. What will

8
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:32,440
Speaker 1: we love even more is getting to the bottom of mysteries,

9
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:38,479
Speaker 1: all mysteries, short but small mysteries. Specifically, trust me, No

10
00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:41,360
Speaker 1: mystery is too small. No, no, no, Why don't you

11
00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:44,159
Speaker 1: trust me when I tell you we are ready to

12
00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:53,080
Speaker 1: sniff around? We are the the truth Hounds. Previously on

13
00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:58,680
Speaker 1: Truth Hounds, I would sit down with Kyle and show

14
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:03,760
Speaker 1: her this website. M Deep macromy, the director of the festival,

15
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:09,200
Speaker 1: looked terrifying, So that you know that feels like a

16
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:15,959
Speaker 1: little I guess predatory. I don't um. People have been

17
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 1: canceled for less. I dare you to submit to this festival.

18
00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:41,199
Speaker 1: I'm a psychopath. Hello, Hey Kyle? Hi, yeah, hey, um,

19
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 1: it's Anna. Oh Hey, what's going on? Hey? Um? Are

20
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:50,520
Speaker 1: you busy right now? I'm actually in the middle of

21
00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 1: counting cash Oh cool, what do you got? I'm currently

22
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 1: on three. Oh that's crazy. I'm actually also counting gets.

23
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:10,000
Speaker 1: I'm on four. Oh cool. Yeah. Um, so look, we

24
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:23,280
Speaker 1: really actually need to talk. Oh, I'll be right there. Hikay, No,

25
00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 1: it's okay. I mean it's soople. Do you remember the

26
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:31,200
Speaker 1: guys who are fishing. I think those are the same guys.

27
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I think about the same guys. That's

28
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:36,800
Speaker 1: what I'm working with. You that their brothers or their friends.

29
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:40,519
Speaker 1: Oh that's a really good question. I don't know, dude,

30
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:42,480
Speaker 1: I don't know. I actually don't know what I'm seeing.

31
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:44,399
Speaker 1: I know that the ocean looks beautiful, of the sky,

32
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 1: the land, whatever. But I literally am so tired. I

33
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:56,520
Speaker 1: am so tired. Yeah that's why I yawned. What's going

34
00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 1: on with you? Why? Honestly, since we start of this investigation,

35
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 1: I just like I stay up all night just thinking

36
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 1: about beat back from May. I'm just like fascinated but terrified,

37
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:15,919
Speaker 1: but just I can't stop thinking about this May. Okay,

38
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:18,360
Speaker 1: you know what the same thing is happening to me.

39
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 1: I literally can't sleep. I'm googling the guy to like

40
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:26,440
Speaker 1: five am, because you know what happened, you know, last

41
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:29,520
Speaker 1: week he said, what if he's weird? Yeah, I can't

42
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:33,840
Speaker 1: stop thinking what if we meet him and he's weird? Yeah?

43
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 1: I think last night specifically, I was thinking, what if

44
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 1: we meet him and he kills us? Oh my Kyle,

45
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 1: I don't think he's not going to kill us. Well,

46
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:43,480
Speaker 1: I don't know. We don't know him. We don't know

47
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 1: this man. And I feel like we're this is starting

48
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 1: to feel really serious and really real what we're doing.

49
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 1: I mean, we're this is what the second episode of

50
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 1: this investigation. It's the third episode of the season, but

51
00:03:55,880 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 1: it's the second second investigation. Yeah, oh my god. We

52
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 1: actually have a lot to do. So maybe we should

53
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:04,840
Speaker 1: get going, but maybe we could nap in the way there,

54
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:11,120
Speaker 1: or yeah, let's just maybe switch off driving. Okay, okay?

55
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:18,520
Speaker 1: Episode three What is Fear and Why Can't I Look Away?

56
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 1: Part two? So we would continue with our plan to

57
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:32,040
Speaker 1: meet Beep macromy and infiltrate his freaky little world, which

58
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:37,680
Speaker 1: in turn would help us understand what is fear and

59
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:42,559
Speaker 1: why we couldn't get enough of it. That meant making

60
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 1: a short horror film, submitting it to film festival, hopefully

61
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:53,640
Speaker 1: getting in and attending it. Then that is where Beet

62
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:57,560
Speaker 1: macromy would have to be because it was his festival.

63
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:01,040
Speaker 1: I mean, if you had your own festival, you would

64
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 1: have to attend it. Damn. Can you imagine not attending

65
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:12,880
Speaker 1: your own festival. It's actually kind of baller. We were

66
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:16,479
Speaker 1: well on our way, we had a director and we

67
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:20,200
Speaker 1: had some money, but there was still some stuff missing.

68
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:24,039
Speaker 1: Our director, Clay informed us that at this point it

69
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,320
Speaker 1: was probably a good idea if we got a script,

70
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,040
Speaker 1: you know, so there was something for him to direct

71
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:36,600
Speaker 1: help the guy out. You might remember our scriptwriters from

72
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:42,159
Speaker 1: last season, Chloe and Josh. I started as the writer's

73
00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:44,880
Speaker 1: p A and worked my way up to writer's assistant.

74
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,080
Speaker 1: So she's great in a room. I think they just

75
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 1: saw her and they bucked her up. We considered them

76
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:56,720
Speaker 1: for the project, but they didn't feel right. They were

77
00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 1: more Jerry O'Connell vehicle meats Sneaky Pete, which is super cool.

78
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:06,920
Speaker 1: But we were trying to get into a festival, so

79
00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 1: we needed someone who knew the festival circuit. Clay, a

80
00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:17,159
Speaker 1: brave director, suggested that we meet for the Alex. Alex

81
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 1: actually owed Clay a favor, so he was willing to

82
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:25,719
Speaker 1: write the script. Site Unseen Alex had written a short

83
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:32,720
Speaker 1: film which had premiered at Sundance. Ever heard of it? Um,

84
00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:36,560
Speaker 1: I've actually never heard of it. Anyway, we set up

85
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:44,600
Speaker 1: a zoom to talk with this accredited script writer. Hello, Hello, Yes,

86
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 1: so Clay reached out to you and sold you in

87
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:52,599
Speaker 1: a little bit. Yeah, he said, you guys are looking

88
00:06:52,680 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 1: for a short film script the horror. Sure, yeah, yeah, exactly. Um,

89
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:05,719
Speaker 1: and just to just to kind of double check, what

90
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:11,600
Speaker 1: are your qualifications? Um, I've written lots of shorts before.

91
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:15,240
Speaker 1: No one of them went to the Sundance Film Festival.

92
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:19,400
Speaker 1: Oh wow, wow. You might have just heard me say

93
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 1: wow right there. But I got to be honest, I

94
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:26,440
Speaker 1: had no idea what he was talking about. I asked

95
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:31,480
Speaker 1: some follow up questions. How many applications did they get?

96
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 1: Isn't it really hard to get into that they get?

97
00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 1: They get? Uh? I would say thousands? Wow? Damn. He

98
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:48,400
Speaker 1: was impressive. He seems like a good fit. Okay, well,

99
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 1: we are looking to make ultimately a horror short for

100
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:57,920
Speaker 1: no budget. We told him a bit about who we were,

101
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:04,920
Speaker 1: So Kyle's actually a horror movie buff. Yeah, and then

102
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 1: I'm kind of a more of a film head. Um,

103
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 1: so we like it to be kind of a mix

104
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:15,840
Speaker 1: of both of those things. Like, for me, it's really

105
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:19,200
Speaker 1: important that it has just a touch of a social message.

106
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 1: And this could be maybe a character size a line

107
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 1: that's like, um, I don't know, you know, and don't

108
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 1: drive drunk, you know, or whatever, very kind of I

109
00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 1: wanted to be pretty clear. I know Anna like the

110
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 1: back of my hand, and I knew the types of

111
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:41,520
Speaker 1: things she cared about, so I piped in, or like

112
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 1: taxes it's impossible to pay them? Yeah, yeah, something like that,

113
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:51,959
Speaker 1: something like taxes aren't taxes, it's impossible to pay them.

114
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 1: Alex totally got it. Before we knew it, we were

115
00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:02,240
Speaker 1: having a full blown brainstorming session. But let's say, why

116
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 1: don't we go ahead and text the rich? Okay, yeah,

117
00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 1: text the rich? Yeah, why don't we go ahead and

118
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:10,040
Speaker 1: text the ridge? Or maybe it's a symbol on the table.

119
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 1: Next thing we knew we were basically in a Parisian

120
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:21,079
Speaker 1: salon with Gertrude Stein, Like maybe it's like the pills

121
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 1: on the table represent Oh actually, maybe you should have

122
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 1: both of those things. Maybe literally a direct line of

123
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:31,680
Speaker 1: dialogue that's like, what do you think about taxing the rich? More?

124
00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:36,400
Speaker 1: And then also very heavy symbolism in the object work.

125
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:44,000
Speaker 1: Oh god, past the croissants. So if that could yeah,

126
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:46,720
Speaker 1: that could be written to the script. Yeah, definitely, maybe

127
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:49,040
Speaker 1: right into the script that like the you know, there's

128
00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 1: a um, there's a big bottle of pills on the table. Yeah,

129
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:55,840
Speaker 1: so maybe there should just be a really big bottle

130
00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:00,319
Speaker 1: on the tag on it says, you know, it costs

131
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,160
Speaker 1: so much money. It's like, who can afford that? Healthcare?

132
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:09,520
Speaker 1: Is really expensive? Yeah? What an inspiring exchange of ideas.

133
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:15,120
Speaker 1: This was basically a thought bizarre in Paris. I'm glad

134
00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:19,160
Speaker 1: we got that clarified. But now it was really important

135
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 1: for us that I was heard animated, sure of it?

136
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:28,479
Speaker 1: Um and then ver Kyle, I think it's really important

137
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:36,439
Speaker 1: that it's really scared scares uh, scares galore. So there

138
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:42,160
Speaker 1: you go. Okay, good, I'm glad I was heard. Sometimes

139
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:44,840
Speaker 1: I feel like no one can hear me that I'm

140
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:48,959
Speaker 1: so small and I'm walking along a busy street hugging

141
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:54,080
Speaker 1: at people's pant legs. Hello, I'm down here, can you

142
00:10:54,160 --> 00:11:03,400
Speaker 1: hear me? Hello? Anyways, we finished up the conversation because

143
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:08,800
Speaker 1: we had definitely given him enough to work with. Yeah,

144
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:12,720
Speaker 1: I guess um, if you could kind of get on it,

145
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:15,959
Speaker 1: that would be realized. The timeline I think, yeah. I

146
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:17,840
Speaker 1: think the last time we talked to Clay it was like, well,

147
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:27,280
Speaker 1: shooting in two weeks, and that was maybe a week ago. Okay, yeah,

148
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 1: literally one day past and we had the script. I

149
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 1: guess this guy, Alex Clay a big favor. So here

150
00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:45,280
Speaker 1: it was the script still hot from the oven. I'm

151
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:55,719
Speaker 1: just kidding. That's not how that works. I know things

152
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,320
Speaker 1: are getting really good, but we have to take a

153
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 1: break for some ads, and the ad break is over.

154
00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 1: Back to it. We were so excited, I mean, we

155
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,320
Speaker 1: wanted to start shooting our short horror film right there

156
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 1: and then. But Clay, our director, had other thoughts. He

157
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 1: recommended that we do a read through, which I guess

158
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:32,240
Speaker 1: is a pretty standard Hollywood procedure where you read over

159
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:35,600
Speaker 1: the script. We went back to the place that we

160
00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 1: all know and love, zoom. I think Alex did a

161
00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 1: really good job. We didn't waste any time. In fact,

162
00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:51,040
Speaker 1: Kyle and I hadn't even given the script a good read.

163
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:58,400
Speaker 1: We jumped right into it. Into your house kitchen night guys,

164
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:01,320
Speaker 1: looking into the fringe, lit only by the French light.

165
00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:06,280
Speaker 1: He pokes around, nothing seems appetizing. Scary knock at the door.

166
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:10,839
Speaker 1: He closes the fridge and cautiously it approaches the front.

167
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:18,439
Speaker 1: I need to do if you're living room night. It

168
00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 1: turns out what we've just seen is a horror movie,

169
00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:31,319
Speaker 1: and um, they have a big reaction to they kill WHOA.

170
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:35,960
Speaker 1: I was about to go get some food, but fridges

171
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,520
Speaker 1: are a little too scary for me right now. I

172
00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:41,120
Speaker 1: love that he went back into the fridge after already

173
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:46,240
Speaker 1: checking the fridge. That's literally half my day. Check the fridge,

174
00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:49,600
Speaker 1: check phone, check fridge, check phone. If anything new will

175
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:52,600
Speaker 1: pop up A big, big heel better. Yeah, being in

176
00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:56,599
Speaker 1: quarantine is like being stuck in a time loop exactly

177
00:13:57,120 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 1: the same day over and over again, except and keeps

178
00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:07,000
Speaker 1: going and we get older. It's cool, very cool. They

179
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:10,160
Speaker 1: go back to watching the movie. But knock, knock, knocks,

180
00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:16,160
Speaker 1: scary knocking at the front. Boor uh did you order food? No,

181
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 1: you're not expecting anyone. Who would I be expected? And

182
00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 1: it gets up and grabs a face mask. What are

183
00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:27,880
Speaker 1: you doing checking the door? I don't think you should, Kyle,

184
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:31,600
Speaker 1: You're being crazy. Please don't open the door. You're just

185
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:35,920
Speaker 1: scared by the movie. There's nothing scary happening, long tense

186
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:38,440
Speaker 1: walk as Anna walks through the door and looks through

187
00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:43,200
Speaker 1: the people. Oh my god, Oh my god, what is it?

188
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:48,320
Speaker 1: And it looks back at cow with horror. It's a

189
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 1: package from Amazon, my god, and it picks it up

190
00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:54,480
Speaker 1: and brings it in. I know, I know it's bad

191
00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:57,880
Speaker 1: to order from the Amazon. Could you please lock the door.

192
00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:04,120
Speaker 1: The script was amazing. It was brimming with social messages,

193
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:07,600
Speaker 1: so I was happy for some reason. And shop sticks

194
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:10,080
Speaker 1: have stabbed her in both of the eyes. She's dead

195
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 1: the end. I mean, it's amazing, this is amazing. I

196
00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:24,160
Speaker 1: love that you hit. You kind of hit for me.

197
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:27,040
Speaker 1: You know that Amazon should be paying more taxes. Yes,

198
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:31,040
Speaker 1: very very current, very currents boarding or meeting to have

199
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:34,480
Speaker 1: like a message, Absolutely, I don't. I mean, it's just

200
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:42,120
Speaker 1: it's perfect. Yeah, the social messages were good, but remember

201
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:46,680
Speaker 1: I needed to be heard, and that meant it needed

202
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:51,000
Speaker 1: to have the right kind of scares. You see. My

203
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:55,000
Speaker 1: favorite thing about scary movies is that they always do

204
00:15:55,080 --> 00:16:01,840
Speaker 1: the unexpected. Like in a normal movie, people just walk forward,

205
00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:06,720
Speaker 1: you know, one foot in front of the other. But

206
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:12,040
Speaker 1: in a scary movie, people are walking every which way.

207
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:18,760
Speaker 1: Sometimes they even walk backward, you know, one foot behind

208
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:22,760
Speaker 1: the other. This is something I knew I wanted in

209
00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:26,880
Speaker 1: our film. Have you ever seen a shot in a

210
00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:30,680
Speaker 1: horror film or creepy figures dart behind a character in

211
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:35,440
Speaker 1: the foreground. Well, Anna and I wanted to be those

212
00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:40,120
Speaker 1: creepy figures, and we wanted to be running backward. I

213
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:42,960
Speaker 1: brought it up with Clay and he definitely was on board.

214
00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:50,720
Speaker 1: He did have a worry though. Now my main worry

215
00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:53,840
Speaker 1: is if you run too fast, you might hit the

216
00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:58,320
Speaker 1: wall that is standing is right there, and that one,

217
00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:00,720
Speaker 1: I say, if you ran fast enough, can knock ye out.

218
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:04,680
Speaker 1: So I was maybe we can offer maybe run another way.

219
00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:08,240
Speaker 1: Maybe two people running at the same time as distracting enough.

220
00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:12,640
Speaker 1: You don't know what's going on. Your eyes are overwhelmed,

221
00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:15,480
Speaker 1: so that could buy us a little bit of time,

222
00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:18,280
Speaker 1: enough to run quite so fast, so we won't run

223
00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:22,239
Speaker 1: into a wall, but so that we're doing it at

224
00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:25,080
Speaker 1: the same time, that's just two people, that's more powerful.

225
00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:29,720
Speaker 1: They'll get a little distracted. Okay. Like any good director,

226
00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:35,840
Speaker 1: Clay kept brainstorming. He had so many ideas about running backward.

227
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:40,200
Speaker 1: I think for me as a director, I would want options,

228
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:44,760
Speaker 1: so I would want you running every which way maybe Okay, Yeah,

229
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:47,680
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, we could get maybe just an

230
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:51,440
Speaker 1: option where we're running actually toward the camera. Yeah, that's

231
00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:55,119
Speaker 1: maybe not we're running away. That would be a homage

232
00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:59,159
Speaker 1: that they fat train that that went into the audience,

233
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:03,200
Speaker 1: so undience early film. I also like the idea of

234
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:06,320
Speaker 1: the running being really heavy, so it being very like

235
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:11,600
Speaker 1: like really like fat thick sound, you know, not like

236
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:17,439
Speaker 1: hit your pattern, but just like in that case, I

237
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:20,239
Speaker 1: would recommend bringing your heaviest pair of shoes and men,

238
00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:27,120
Speaker 1: we we can wet them down absolutely. Before we set

239
00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:32,120
Speaker 1: our goodbyes, we asked Clay one more thing. We wanted

240
00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:36,679
Speaker 1: to do a good job acting. I mean, can I

241
00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:41,479
Speaker 1: be honest? This was both my and Kyle's dream to act.

242
00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:50,480
Speaker 1: I mean me, Anna, I want to stand on a

243
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:56,600
Speaker 1: beautiful stage, spotlight right on me so you could really

244
00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 1: really see the outlines of my face. I want to

245
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:04,560
Speaker 1: look dead head into the audience and say take me

246
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:07,960
Speaker 1: into your arms and show me the world, and then

247
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:11,560
Speaker 1: kick me out and leave me for dirt, the dirt

248
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:19,639
Speaker 1: that I am me. Kyle, my dream was to be

249
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:25,439
Speaker 1: in a big blockbuster comedy, you know, the type of

250
00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:28,840
Speaker 1: movie where I play every single character in the movie

251
00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:31,320
Speaker 1: and at one point we're all in the same room

252
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:34,320
Speaker 1: and we're running into each other and we're like, no,

253
00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:40,439
Speaker 1: I'm Kyle, No, I'm Kyle. Hey, which one of you

254
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:50,919
Speaker 1: Kyle's did that? I'll never tell Hio. Yeah, that's my

255
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:55,479
Speaker 1: dream anyway. Yeah, we wanted to act. Kyle had an

256
00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:58,359
Speaker 1: idea and she ran it by Clay. Anna and I

257
00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:00,879
Speaker 1: were thinking about maybe meeting with an acting coach to

258
00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 1: just really get our rolls down. Do you think that?

259
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:06,879
Speaker 1: Would you advise that? I would definitely advise that anything

260
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:09,280
Speaker 1: that gets you comfortable instead, I think an acting coach

261
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:14,400
Speaker 1: wouldn't be great helpful with that. Anyway, we finally ended

262
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:18,679
Speaker 1: the Zoom. Thank you guys so much, and She's awesome sauce.

263
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:28,520
Speaker 1: The read through was a complete success, and actually I

264
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:35,080
Speaker 1: had the perfect acting coach in mind. However, he wouldn't

265
00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:39,840
Speaker 1: be available until the day before the shoot, so we

266
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:44,960
Speaker 1: decided to focus on other things. We knew that we

267
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:49,800
Speaker 1: would eventually have a quality product on our hands. But

268
00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:57,280
Speaker 1: I have to say something, and that is acting is

269
00:20:57,320 --> 00:21:02,040
Speaker 1: not a product. It's not something you can purchase at

270
00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:05,960
Speaker 1: a store. It's not something you see in a window

271
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:10,000
Speaker 1: display at Macy's. Run inside and say I'll take three

272
00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:17,159
Speaker 1: of those. Acting is an art and to act is

273
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:23,399
Speaker 1: to be an artist. And the thing about us is

274
00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:30,840
Speaker 1: we are really good at doing work, but we're were artists.

275
00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:37,080
Speaker 1: I don't know what I mean to say. Is I

276
00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:39,679
Speaker 1: know how to put together a schedule, rent a table,

277
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:49,119
Speaker 1: hire a screenwriter, But am I anna an artist? We

278
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:53,119
Speaker 1: didn't have the answers to such complicated questions, but we

279
00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:57,520
Speaker 1: did have a huge advantage. If you know what is

280
00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:03,960
Speaker 1: practically in our backyard. Yeah you the listener sitting there

281
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:12,359
Speaker 1: all cute in your beanie. Our backyard is Hollywood. We

282
00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:18,359
Speaker 1: make this podcast in Hollywood. Do you know what Hollywood is?

283
00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:24,040
Speaker 1: It's the genesis of acting. This is where you come

284
00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:29,520
Speaker 1: to act. Every day, thousands of people come here to act,

285
00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:36,560
Speaker 1: and well, we're already here. We had a hometown advantage.

286
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:40,000
Speaker 1: I know that it's taken a long time to get

287
00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:44,359
Speaker 1: to our point, but one, what else is new? And

288
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:52,960
Speaker 1: two here it is we live in the mecca of acting, Hollywood.

289
00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:59,040
Speaker 1: We needed to be with the acting community. We needed

290
00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 1: to feel gitimized. So we came up with a mini

291
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:09,880
Speaker 1: plan we would make a pilgrimage to the heart of Hollywood, which,

292
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:14,399
Speaker 1: as everyone knows, is the Hollywood Walk of Fame. We

293
00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:18,000
Speaker 1: figured this is where actors were hanging out doing their

294
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:24,000
Speaker 1: you know, actor things. We got into my car, drove

295
00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:26,760
Speaker 1: for an hour and a half, and paid thirty dollars

296
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:33,080
Speaker 1: for parking, and finally we were there the heart of Hollywood.

297
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:36,399
Speaker 1: We stopped to admire some of the names on the

298
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:43,879
Speaker 1: stars adorning the sidewalk. I'm sorry, but can I just

299
00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:48,560
Speaker 1: say it was so exciting to see all of the

300
00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:53,680
Speaker 1: stars because it really made you think maybe one day

301
00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:58,280
Speaker 1: my name would be there. We took a look at

302
00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:09,440
Speaker 1: the names to game. Delbert Man, Delbert, don't remember that? Dorothy,

303
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:13,000
Speaker 1: I don't know that. I really don't know that. Okay,

304
00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:22,560
Speaker 1: A oh, I say wait, deep proved back. Who's that? Um?

305
00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:27,640
Speaker 1: I think he's kind of like a jazz guy. Honestly,

306
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:33,920
Speaker 1: we had a hard time recognizing the names. After walking

307
00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:37,959
Speaker 1: around for what seemed like hours, we spotted a crowd

308
00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:44,960
Speaker 1: all swarming around the one name that was recognizable, Henry Winkler.

309
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:50,960
Speaker 1: I'll really really wanted a photo, but the weight was

310
00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:55,200
Speaker 1: way too long. I offered up the next best thing,

311
00:24:57,560 --> 00:24:59,159
Speaker 1: I can't get you a photo in front of Henry

312
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:00,919
Speaker 1: Winkler because other people are doing that, but I can

313
00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:07,639
Speaker 1: get you Steve Schwartz. I had no idea who Stephen

314
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:11,200
Speaker 1: Schwartz was, but at this point I was just tired

315
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:15,399
Speaker 1: of walking around and my feet her. I guess on

316
00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:19,000
Speaker 1: the bright side, Stephen Schwartz wasn't close proximity to Henry Winkler,

317
00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:22,120
Speaker 1: and it was right outside of the theater where Hamilton's

318
00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:30,680
Speaker 1: was playing, So that was something I said, Okay, okay, yeah, okay,

319
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:32,960
Speaker 1: say your bucket pet you Don'tay Schwartz, and then I'll

320
00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 1: get Hamilton that crowd. Yeah, it didn't really feel like

321
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:49,400
Speaker 1: we were with the acting community. It felt like we

322
00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 1: were with a bunch of tourists, no offense. So that's

323
00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:59,399
Speaker 1: why we decided to move somewhere else. We needed to

324
00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:04,119
Speaker 1: find a local Hollywood haunt, you know, like a dive

325
00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:09,520
Speaker 1: bar or I don't know what kind of beanery. We

326
00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:13,359
Speaker 1: looked around for something that fit the bill, and that

327
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 1: is when we saw it, Starbucks. We would be immersed

328
00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:24,040
Speaker 1: in the Hollywood acting community. I could just see it now.

329
00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:36,160
Speaker 1: Actors sitting on couches, actors sipping on cappuccinos, actors talking Stanislavsky,

330
00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:45,080
Speaker 1: actors talking Meisner, actors talking little black box theaters, actors

331
00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:51,560
Speaker 1: printing outside. So as we walked in, this is what

332
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:58,560
Speaker 1: we expected to see. And the thing is, we didn't

333
00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:02,520
Speaker 1: see any of that. Not only were there no actors

334
00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:06,520
Speaker 1: sitting around and reading their sides, there were no actors

335
00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:12,520
Speaker 1: sitting anywhere. It seemed that due to COVID, Starbucks had

336
00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:17,960
Speaker 1: actually removed all seating. In fact, they actually had little

337
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:20,600
Speaker 1: signs that said you couldn't even lean against their counters.

338
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:26,639
Speaker 1: And on top of that, they had actually hired a

339
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:32,320
Speaker 1: security guard whose job was to usher customers out as

340
00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:37,639
Speaker 1: soon as they got their drink. Remember, we went to

341
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:40,119
Speaker 1: the Starbucks so that we would be able to be

342
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:43,480
Speaker 1: with our acting community, so we could feel like real

343
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:50,600
Speaker 1: actors and then run our lines. And instead there was

344
00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:56,760
Speaker 1: no community. So the best we could do was to

345
00:27:56,840 --> 00:28:02,520
Speaker 1: go over the script while waiting line to order while

346
00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:08,159
Speaker 1: the security guards stared at us. And to make matters worse,

347
00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:15,679
Speaker 1: it was really loud. So honestly, the quality of the

348
00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:25,440
Speaker 1: audio that we got is not great. In fact, it's shitty.

349
00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:30,960
Speaker 1: WHOA I was about to go get some sup between

350
00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:32,920
Speaker 1: the prints they are a little too scary for me

351
00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:35,840
Speaker 1: right now. I love that he went back into the

352
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:42,160
Speaker 1: French after I'm already checking the French. Sorry that you

353
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:46,320
Speaker 1: had to listen to that. Hollywood turned out to be

354
00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 1: a bit different than what we had expected. You see,

355
00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:55,080
Speaker 1: we thought it would be all community and dreams, and

356
00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:59,920
Speaker 1: instead it was a bit more Stephen Schwartz and being

357
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:03,560
Speaker 1: escorted out of the Starbucks by a man named Caesar.

358
00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:11,480
Speaker 1: In other words, a disappointment, But hey, maybe that was

359
00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:15,840
Speaker 1: a valuable lesson in and of itself. You see, we

360
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:19,080
Speaker 1: had gotten sidetracked and what we needed to do was

361
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:23,080
Speaker 1: bring our focus back to the task at hand, acting

362
00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:34,840
Speaker 1: and now an ad break. The ad break is over.

363
00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:43,120
Speaker 1: Remember the point of all of this was to act

364
00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:45,480
Speaker 1: in a short film that would be good enough to

365
00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:49,240
Speaker 1: submit and be accepted into the Shock Horror Film Festival,

366
00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:54,800
Speaker 1: so we could eventually meet the festival director, Beep macromay,

367
00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:59,480
Speaker 1: and once and for all answered the question why am

368
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:02,760
Speaker 1: I scared of this man? But I can't look away?

369
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:09,920
Speaker 1: In other words, what's up with fear? So we needed

370
00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:13,840
Speaker 1: to hone or acting before the film shoot. Remember, during

371
00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:16,240
Speaker 1: the read through, I said I had an acting coach

372
00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:20,320
Speaker 1: in mind. Well, he was finally available to meet with us.

373
00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:24,120
Speaker 1: I didn't have any experience working with an acting coach

374
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:27,479
Speaker 1: per se, but a friend of mine had taken an

375
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:32,520
Speaker 1: acting class with the Sean and they wouldn't shut up

376
00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:37,920
Speaker 1: about it, so it sounded promising. We finally sat down

377
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:52,120
Speaker 1: with the Sean id Sean, Yo, what's up? Do you

378
00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:55,160
Speaker 1: think you could just tell us a little bit about

379
00:30:56,840 --> 00:31:02,120
Speaker 1: like your acting experience? Well, I've been acting for longer

380
00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:04,600
Speaker 1: than I care to say. I have a degree from

381
00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:09,440
Speaker 1: the Juilliard School. Um. Juliard is spelt with two elves,

382
00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:11,680
Speaker 1: by the way. Um. A lot of people don't know

383
00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:18,280
Speaker 1: that this guy was good. We quickly got to Shaun

384
00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:21,120
Speaker 1: up to speed on what we were working on and

385
00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:26,160
Speaker 1: got right into it. You guys ready, Yeah, interior living

386
00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:30,720
Speaker 1: room night. It turns out what we've just seen is

387
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:34,720
Speaker 1: a horror movie. Anna and Kyle are watching. They have

388
00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:40,040
Speaker 1: a big reaction to the kill. Sorry, can I can

389
00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:42,400
Speaker 1: I jump in now? Or do we want to do

390
00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:51,160
Speaker 1: the whole thing? And then oh yeah, Kyle, you're stiff? Okay, wow, okay,

391
00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:53,120
Speaker 1: do you see how when you were doing it, like

392
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:57,400
Speaker 1: your neck was like straight up like like that, like

393
00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:02,040
Speaker 1: it was yeah, I think you're right. Okay, note take it.

394
00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:10,000
Speaker 1: Can I just say something out cheese? Hearing this feedback

395
00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:15,080
Speaker 1: from him was definitely hard, but anything worth doing is hard,

396
00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:20,080
Speaker 1: So I just took the note like a champion and

397
00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:24,360
Speaker 1: we continued to work on the scene. Now that we

398
00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:29,680
Speaker 1: had addressed Kyle's posture, we were ready to act. Here

399
00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:36,840
Speaker 1: we go, okay, yes, in here your living room night.

400
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:39,120
Speaker 1: It turns out what we've seen as a horror movie,

401
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:42,320
Speaker 1: and then Kyle watching they have a big reaction to

402
00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:47,200
Speaker 1: the killer whoa. Oh I mean I was about to

403
00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:49,360
Speaker 1: go get some food, but I'm sorry, guys, I have

404
00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:53,760
Speaker 1: to jump in. What's the intention behind the whoa? Well,

405
00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:56,960
Speaker 1: because we just watched someone get killed, So we're saying, whoa,

406
00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:01,360
Speaker 1: we saw something gruesome. You saw some think gruesome. But

407
00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:03,760
Speaker 1: it seems to me like with the whoa, you're trying

408
00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:08,080
Speaker 1: to let go of the wow, well that was crazy cool.

409
00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:10,400
Speaker 1: Let's let's go back to the next thing, you know

410
00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:24,440
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Yeah, so you're like, yeah, my mind, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, okay, okay, okay.

411
00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:29,040
Speaker 1: So we weren't acting quite yet, but notes were important,

412
00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:34,160
Speaker 1: and now we got them so we could start acting.

413
00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:44,000
Speaker 1: Here we go again. Yeah, let's do it. Let's do it. Okay.

414
00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:46,000
Speaker 1: It turns out what we've seen as a horror movie

415
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:49,120
Speaker 1: and and Kyler watching, they have a big reaction to

416
00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:58,280
Speaker 1: the kill. Whoa, whoa? Oh I I mean I was

417
00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:00,800
Speaker 1: just about to go get some food, but maybe fridges

418
00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:04,040
Speaker 1: are a little scary for me. Right wait, I'm sorry?

419
00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:08,319
Speaker 1: Are you serious? We hadn't even started acting yet. I

420
00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:10,560
Speaker 1: know that this. It's just really important that you start

421
00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:12,680
Speaker 1: off on the right foot, you know what I'm saying?

422
00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:15,320
Speaker 1: All Right, I don't know. It sounds like a roller

423
00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:18,120
Speaker 1: coaster or something like that. Are you looking? Do you

424
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:21,120
Speaker 1: feel like you're looking for more of like a matrix?

425
00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:27,239
Speaker 1: Kind of? Wow, that was better than what you're doing,

426
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:31,800
Speaker 1: I'll tell you that. Yeah that yeah, even though I

427
00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:34,879
Speaker 1: don't know why you're thinking the matrix, but it's your imagination.

428
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:38,160
Speaker 1: So if that works for you, great, Okay, I think

429
00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:41,120
Speaker 1: we got it. Okay, cool, let's do it again. All right.

430
00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:44,759
Speaker 1: It turns out we've just seen his horror movie and

431
00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:47,640
Speaker 1: then Kyla watching, they have a big reaction to the kill.

432
00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:53,640
Speaker 1: Oh wha? What do you think about that? De Sean

433
00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:58,640
Speaker 1: Kyle acting is supposed to be fun, and did you

434
00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:03,120
Speaker 1: hear that he did? Stop us? Here we are. We

435
00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:06,600
Speaker 1: were just about to get through the rest of the text.

436
00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:11,560
Speaker 1: I was about to go get some food, but maybe

437
00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:13,640
Speaker 1: fridges are a little too scary for me right there.

438
00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:18,600
Speaker 1: I love that he went back into the fridge after

439
00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:25,759
Speaker 1: already checking the fridge. That's literally half my day. Check

440
00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:29,960
Speaker 1: the fridge, check phone, check fridge, check phone, as if

441
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:33,680
Speaker 1: anything new will pop up and make me feel better. Well,

442
00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:37,400
Speaker 1: I'm gonn jump in. What's going on here? Have I

443
00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:41,640
Speaker 1: been dropped into a different dimension? Is this some twisted

444
00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:49,880
Speaker 1: house of mirrors? How it was that I liked the woe?

445
00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:57,480
Speaker 1: Oh see, Kyle, Hey, take a step back from the ledge.

446
00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:02,040
Speaker 1: Let's okay, we got the woe. Let's just go from

447
00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:04,640
Speaker 1: the woe. Just say the wold one more time. And

448
00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:05,960
Speaker 1: I just want to see how you guys have been

449
00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:12,080
Speaker 1: transitioning from that. Great let's try it. Yeah, okay, okay, okay,

450
00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:21,480
Speaker 1: whoa wow? I was I was about to go get

451
00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:24,720
Speaker 1: some food, but maybe fridges are a little too scary

452
00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:30,480
Speaker 1: for me right now, huh. I love that he went

453
00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:39,560
Speaker 1: back into the fridge already checking the bridge. Yeah that literally? Sorry,

454
00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:44,680
Speaker 1: that was great. That was great. I had a thought

455
00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:47,719
Speaker 1: and I just put that I second guess through it.

456
00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:50,640
Speaker 1: Oh my god, that was so good. You were just

457
00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:53,760
Speaker 1: appreciating the brilliance of the of the film just now, Kyle,

458
00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:57,399
Speaker 1: which I which I understood. I was like, oh wow, okay, great,

459
00:36:57,480 --> 00:37:00,000
Speaker 1: but it's so innocuous that it's it's it's actually brilliant.

460
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:04,880
Speaker 1: That's what I heard. Yeah, I think that really came across.

461
00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:09,360
Speaker 1: I agree, this was all nice and fun, but I

462
00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:12,680
Speaker 1: had been keeping my eye closely on the clock because

463
00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:15,920
Speaker 1: I don't know if you know this, but acting coaches

464
00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:21,600
Speaker 1: are really expensive. The first half hours complimentary, but after that,

465
00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:26,080
Speaker 1: good luck taking out a loan from the bank. We

466
00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:29,920
Speaker 1: had to say goodbye kind of abruptly. I actually think

467
00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:33,640
Speaker 1: we're at a time because oh no, we didn't even

468
00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:38,759
Speaker 1: get the whole page done. Yeah, well, I think I

469
00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:41,000
Speaker 1: think that, I mean, that gives us a lot to

470
00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:42,960
Speaker 1: work with. Well, at least you guys know that you're

471
00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:45,000
Speaker 1: gonna have a good woe and you're gonna have a

472
00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:46,839
Speaker 1: good first couple of lines. I don't know what you're

473
00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:49,360
Speaker 1: gonna do for the rest of the film, but we

474
00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:58,759
Speaker 1: so that was our acting session with the Sean. To

475
00:37:58,840 --> 00:38:02,600
Speaker 1: be honest, it was isn't what we had expected. We'd

476
00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:06,279
Speaker 1: expected to get through the whole script, but instead we

477
00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:09,880
Speaker 1: had learned how to deliver two lines. The shoot was

478
00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:13,360
Speaker 1: literally the next day, so we would just have to

479
00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:17,200
Speaker 1: make it work. You know, maybe that's just what acting is,

480
00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:23,440
Speaker 1: making it work exactly. Now. We would have to figure

481
00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:28,239
Speaker 1: it out because remember this, this was all part of

482
00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:32,239
Speaker 1: a bigger plan. We had set out to shoot a

483
00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:36,000
Speaker 1: short film that would hopefully be good enough to be

484
00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:41,880
Speaker 1: accepted into the Film Festival, which would allow us to

485
00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:47,960
Speaker 1: come face to face with Film Festival director Beep macrom

486
00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:53,000
Speaker 1: And then we would be face to face with fear itself,

487
00:38:54,760 --> 00:39:01,520
Speaker 1: and then we could ask the fear, why can't I

488
00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:07,640
Speaker 1: quit you? We didn't know then what we know now

489
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:12,959
Speaker 1: now is the future. We are writing this Vio from

490
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:19,160
Speaker 1: the future. Hi. Things would only get more complicated from

491
00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:23,319
Speaker 1: here on out. We had no idea what we were

492
00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:27,840
Speaker 1: getting ourselves into. We headed to the beach to talk.

493
00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:40,520
Speaker 1: It's beautiful. Um, that was a lot. Actually, Wow, we

494
00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:43,120
Speaker 1: did a lot. You really did do a lot. I

495
00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:45,759
Speaker 1: mean I didn't really all go the way that we

496
00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:50,759
Speaker 1: expected to. No, but seldom in life do things work

497
00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:56,120
Speaker 1: out that way. So I'm tired. I'm a little worried

498
00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:58,640
Speaker 1: because we have the shoot tomorrow, so shouldn't we I

499
00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:00,399
Speaker 1: just don't want to. I don't want to stay out

500
00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:02,719
Speaker 1: too late. No, I don't want to stay out too late. Yeah,

501
00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:04,960
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm excited for the shoot. I'm excited to

502
00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:08,719
Speaker 1: see how that turns out. Yeah, I gotta say, I

503
00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:12,719
Speaker 1: don't know. It's really starting to feel real, and I

504
00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:16,600
Speaker 1: just we don't even know where the festival is and

505
00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:20,279
Speaker 1: who this beat macer May is Like what if we're

Speaker 1: doing something that's like what if we're gonna what if

507
00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:27,680
Speaker 1: we're putting ourselves in danger? I just I'm getting really scared.

508
00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:31,560
Speaker 1: I know, I honestly, I'm getting scared too. But I

509
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:34,799
Speaker 1: just feel like we can't really we have to go

510
00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:36,520
Speaker 1: through the motions, you know, until we get there and

511
00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:40,040
Speaker 1: we'll figure it out. But I understand where you're scared.

512
00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:45,600
