I wrote, directed and acted in this short film as part of an ACTRA (actor's union) conference in Toronto in February 2020. I was in the workshop to make a movie in 24 hours. We found up just filming this in an hour and I edited it down to the max 5 minutes allowed. We had to include an image of City Hall, a newspaper from Toronto, and a quote from Melissa McCarthy: "When I believe in something, I'm like a dog with a bone." video filmdirector videoeditor actor comedian writer screenwriter
