Haha. Fair question. I wasn't actually working on it that whole time. I shot it last summer, but when I went to edit it, it wasn't working the way I had originally planned. It took me a while to figure out how to put the footage together. On top of that, I made a lot of stupid mistakes while shooting it. (This is my first live-action short. I usually make cartoons.) There are more visual effects in there than you can likely tell upon first viewing, just there to cover issues with the footage.
So most of that time I was just thinking about it. But then I also had to learn how to do the visual effects and sound design, because that was stuff I hadn't done before.
