They talk about how “there’s only so much you can do in prep” and at a certain point you have to be open to the pleasant surprises that reveal themselves on set.

Kieran shot handheld in certain environments and they were awarded a grant from Panavision for winning HollyShorts with another film in 2020. The choice of handheld made the world more accessible & told a specific visual language.

The film was shot almost entirely in POV to share character personality and employs a 4:3 aspect ratio.

11 Aug 2023HollyShorts LIVE: Knowing When to Cut Camera w/ Elisa Gambino (Director), Dave Liu (Exec Producer), Neal Broffman (DP) of “Every Day After”00:12:30

We are live, on-location at the TCL Chinese Theatre for the 19th annual Oscar Qualifying ⁠HollyShorts Film Festival⁠, as the official podcast partner. These shorter, special episodes are with selected filmmakers.


In this special HollyShorts Live Podcast Inde sits down with: 


Elisa Gambino (Director)

Dave Liu (Executive Producer)

Neal Broffman (Cinematographer/Editor)


To talk about their documentary “Every Day After”


Logline: The older sister of a neglected adolescent boy faces her own fears so her brother can heal and experience the everyday joys and struggles of growing up.


They talk about what cameras were used in order to capture moments of the family in a contained space and their daily lives.  How does Elisa direct without “directing”? She built a relationship with the family before filming so Neal (DP) could be very close as they lived their day-to-day lives. 


Every Day After is a 35-minute black & white documentary that provides a more nuanced look at the complexities of the healing process we don’t often see. And honors the invisible labor of a sister whose love and action make it possible for Jary to experience the everyday joys and struggles of growing up.

11 Aug 2023HollyShorts LIVE: Low Budget in New Mexico w/ Eugen Merher (writer/director) & Alexander Wolf David (composer) of “The Boy Who Couldn’t Feel Pain”00:11:17

We are live, on-location at the TCL Chinese Theatre for the 19th annual Oscar Qualifying ⁠HollyShorts Film Festival⁠, as the official podcast partner. These shorter, special episodes are with selected filmmakers.


In this episode Hae sits down with Eugen Merher (writer/director) & Alexander Wolf David (composer) of the film “The Boy Who Couldn’t Feel Pain” which was nominated for a Student Academy Award last year 2022.  


Logline:  ‘The Boy Who Couldn't Feel Pain’ is set in Grants, New Mexico and tells the fictional small-town legend of Chester, a street fighter who can't feel any pain. When Annie, a bowling alley employee who just moved into town challenges him for a fight, things begin to change.


Eugen discusses his self-made stabilization arm attached to a pickup truck (a poor man’s Ukrainian arm) for some running shots. How did they work with talent with this set-up? The actor had to run for about 8 hours, stop & go. 

As a film school project, the New Mexico market was accommodating to their low budget. 


Alex Wolf David, Composer had to create a sound of “legend” and “awkwardness” for the character. Alex improvises musically and Eugen would listen to what feels right. 

They also found a local instrument made of a cigar box to give the appropriate sounds. 


Their 4:3 aspect ratio was a choice driven by the simple and small world story of the main character.

18 Aug 2023HollyShorts LIVE: Noam Argov uses her documentary strengths to pivot to narrative film “Sulam”00:11:22

We are live, on-location at the TCL Chinese Theatre for the 19th annual Oscar Qualifying ⁠HollyShorts Film Festival⁠, as the official podcast partner. These shorter, special episodes are with selected filmmakers.


In this episode Hae & Inde sit down with Noam Argov, Director of the film “SULAM”. 


Logline:  When an immigrant teen must help her mom before a school exam, tensions of belonging bubble to the surface.


This film is based on a personal story & they shot on location in her hometown and in the places she grew up. They used artwork from her first apartment when they immigrated to America in the production design. The whole experience was a memory recreation.


This is Sulam’s 6th film. She has a background in documentary but decided to reflect on herself and create this narrative based on personal experiences. As she cut the film herself, she had to separate her own history, plans and let the film becomes the best version of itself in the final cut.
