Thank you for sharing this, especially as you said on !imadethis@lemm.ee that you were the one who wrote and directed this?

[–] nelly32418@lemm.ee 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I did! any questions am happy to answer!

[–] Blaze@reddthat.com 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Not really related to the movie itself (sorry, I might have questions on that later), but how did you hear about Lemmy?

[–] nelly32418@lemm.ee 2 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Just was looking up some outside of the box ways to help get my short in front of some people who may be interested!

Also, would you consider going an "Ask me anything" post at some point in the future? I'm sure a lot of people would be interested in your experience in the film industry

[–] nelly32418@lemm.ee 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Yes I could do that! What channel is the best for that sort of thing? I’m new to this site

[–] Blaze@reddthat.com 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I guess !movies@lemm.ee would be the most interesting one, as its audience is mostly interested in movies. I'm a mod of that community, so I can help with this.

When would be the best time for you to this this? Usually this kind of sessions last a few days, so that people haven enough time to ask their questions, and that you have enough time to answer. It's also better to announce it a few days beforehand so that people are aware of the session and come up with questions.

I also noticed that Lemmy is a bit more active during the week than during the weekends, so we should also take that into account.

Great! I am filming until Monday, but have a day off Tuesday and Wednesday, if those work I could probably do it then! Let me know what works on your end

[–] Blaze@reddthat.com 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Alright, I'll see what we can do! Which timezone are you located in?

[–] nelly32418@lemm.ee 0 points 6 months ago (1 children)

filming in EST but then will be returning to PST on the 21st

[–] Blaze@reddthat.com 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Alright! One last thing before we go further: do you know how to see Direct Messages on Lemmy? I just would like to verify you are indeed Will Ropp (I guess you are, but we never know). We can discuss that in DMs, let me know if you have issue finding them.

On the website they are part of the inbox, that you can access using the bell (or https://lemm.ee/inbox), if you are on a mobile client they should be somewhere. I just sent you a message, we can take it from here over there!

[–] nelly32418@lemm.ee 2 points 6 months ago

Just responded to your message, let me know if you received.

[–] Blaze@reddthat.com 4 points 6 months ago

Nice, thanks!

Thanks for sharing this. It is was surprisingly funny. Their chemistry builds over a short time and I really felt for both of them.

This reminded me of 50/50 - almost as if the idea was to tell a story like that but in short bites.

[–] nelly32418@lemm.ee 1 points 6 months ago

exactly! Love JGL and that film 50/50. Glad you enjoyed!

[–] orangeNgreen@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

Really enjoyed this! Looking forward to the AMA!
