Old Working Boards

These were the working rough boards for my thesis film from the middle of September of last year. It's bittersweet to look at for me now - the huge chunks I've reworked, the original intent of what I was trying to do, the large amount of horses I was able to remove entirely. As a matter of personal preference I feel compelled to say that boarding this particular short film was a very frustrating thing for me. I was beating myself in the face with culture shock, getting lots of feedback from people without any previous experience with Ukrainian culture. Some of the comments I got you would not believe! It wasn't making it easier to get at what the issues with the boards really were.
