One of the constraints for Anamnesis demanded that the film must have one 2-minute-long shot. Here’s a look into how we pulled off “the long take.”
Composer Bryan Ricker talks about the music of Anamnesis, and we hold the first read-through for the March-release film, Lovebound: Love Abounds.
While Anamnesis was in its final post-production push, we were also working on pre-production for our March-release film I am directing. Last Sunday marked our first day of production. The title? Lovebound: Love Abounds.
Lovebound: Love Abounds is our first all-out comedy, and a very silly one at that. Check out the synopsis and cast list (of which I couldn’t be happier with) over at the film’s page, and be sure to stay tuned for plenty behind-the-scenes content via pictures and production diaries.
Here are the constraints we had to follow:
• Somebody must solve a mystery that nobody else cares about. – Max K.
• A character must say the line: “I’m pretty sure that is going to mess everything up…” – Mike C.
• No one can die. – Ben W.
• One character must always have a song stuck in their head, but not quite know what it is… – Deborah J.
• One character must be a sex therapist. – Stephanie C.
• At least one full minute of the film must not include any dialogue. – Ana K.
• One actor must be cast for a character of the opposite sex. – G. W.

After a lot of late nights, and a lot of incredible work from some very talented people, I’m pleased to present Finite Film’s first production of 2012, Anamnesis!
Making this movie was a really intense, wonderful experience. Thank you SO much to everyone who made it possible (you know who you are)! We’ll be posting more behind-the-scenes production diaries in the coming weeks so you can see what went into making this one.
In the meantime, I’d recommend watching Anamnesis in HD with a good pair of headphones or speakers in a dark, quiet room
