This short is a documentary of the Summer of 2011 that I spent living in California; or rather, living out of Texas for the first time.
I gathered the various footage over the three month period on my Kodak Zi8, my Sony Cybershot, and cell phones. The narration was inspired by the journal entry I wrote the week I arrived to LA; Get Here, And We’ll Do The Rest.
I chose music with special personal meaning to me in relation to the journey westward, and added a clip from my favorite scene from the film that inspired me to become a screenwriter; all to create this very personal documentation of a Summer that changed my life.
