(this photo features me cutting the rope off the actor's hands after her scenes were over :p)

As a writer: The final project script was written by me, but the idea for the plotline was mostly Muhjah's, I just helped bring in some minor details. I started by writing out the initial drafts on Google Documents, and shared them with Muhjah to get her input. We had a very similar vision, so the writing part of the process was very smooth.

As a casting director: I worked on casting the actors for the roles, designing posters and handing out the casting calls, as well as posting them on my Instagram account to gain traction. I oversaw the auditions and ensured that I select the most suitable actors for our film opening.

As a production designer: I scouted all the locations and made sure the sets were as desired. I took control of the lighting and the technical elements of the film opening, ensuring everything was perfect for the filming. 

As a co-director/co-producer: Muhjah and I worked together in this aspect, but we both divided the responsibilities. She took charge of camera work, I helped the technical elements. She edited the clips, I added the sound. Overall, we split the work very effectively to ensure that we worked efficiently.

As a prop master: I had gathered the props for our film opening, buying the rope and the cigarettes (with the permission of my parent of course), as well as finding the knife, which was originally a gift from a gift. The shovel I got at the location, and one of the actors brought the apple juice and glasses we needed as I was unable to get them prior.
