Tonight, I had the pleasure of watching Pauly Shore's latest flick "Pauly Shore is Dead: You'll Never Wiez in This Town Again."
While the movie itself wasnt as entertaining as I had expected it to be, one thing the DVD provides is extra features. Included on the extra features was Shore showing his movie to Cal Fresno students. Afterwards he did a short Q&A for the students who asked some decent questions.
Shore made mention that this was his first serious directing flick and that he also wrote it as well. He gave some awesome tips for aspiring writers and directors and even answered questions about music and scoring etc...
One student asked him how he handled holding on to his original vision and Shore said he caught himself a couple times changing his vision because other people didnt like what he wrote but he found that he stuck to the original idea from the start. He also said he did this on his own with not much backing and that they used HDcam to shoot and cut it on Avid which he also said is dying and everyone is using Final Cut Pro (I dont agree with that).
All in all, it was nice pick me up for those who have people telling them that they cant do it this way or that way. Not worth buying the DVD but if you see it in the video store, pikc it up and watch the Q&A if nothing else. Gave some great advice that is commonly OVERLOOKED during pre and post production.
