17 West Productions, recently wrapped another low budget short film called The Climb.
We started pre-production right around the time I began this blog. As a result, there are a ton of posts on this site dealing with virtually every aspect of the production process.
Right now, I’m just about finished rolling out a series of posts on our 3 day shoot and I’m planning a recap as soon as the final post is published.
I also thought it would be a good idea to collect all of the posts I’d written leading up to the shoot.
Many of them deal with the challenges of producing a short film on a low budget. It certainly wasn’t easy…

The Climb will probably be our last low budget short for a while as we are now actively planning some bigger and more ambitious films. However, it was definitely a fantastic experience!
