As a whole, the deal process went through pretty quickly. To help me with the paperwork and other things, I hired translator to bridge the gap between the French connections and myself. With the budget raised, Eurostar and accommodation booked for the cast and crew, everything was ready to go. This section (and certainly most important) to the production was done entirely digitally. Under such tight budget restrictions, I managed to make this happen. With my very limited French I was still able to secure the production’s permit for exterior shooting and a deal with a café for a shooting location. One of the most challenging yet exciting stages of production with this film was the Paris block (block 2) in September (specific dates 13th – 17th). Both the actors and crew created some beautiful work. Luckily the properties were well chosen and supported this aim with some beautiful set pieces.
