BEHIND THE TRUE STORY
These projects document the behind the scenes creativity of the short film. The hope for each project was to capture the process that Vince and the talented team went through to bring this deeply personal story to life! Vince brought together a team of Los Angeles based and Indianapolis based creatives to film in his home community of central Indiana. The short film follows Max as he processes how to eulogize his sister Chloe, an experience that mirrors Vince’s own.
