I mean, the camera's going around and all kinds of crazy stuff, but it's just all faked by paper. It took me all night to shoot it, because I remember I walked into the film school the next day, like all sleeping and I told one of the fellow students, wow, I was up all night doing this animated title sequence and he went, why are you putting so much work in this?

They're not going to grade you any differently. And I was like, grades? Get an A walking in here. I'm trying to get out of this town. I'm not doing this for fucking grades. I want people to see what I can do now. And I want to see what I can do now with this. So a lot of the story came from the limitations or actually the freedoms of that camera. I couldn't have done that story on video.

So when I saw, wow, okay, I can do reverse photography. I can do stop motion. she has to have special powers. Because if she has special powers, then I can utilize, I can really milk this camera for all it can get. There's one of my shots I love the most is where she's standing there and the chair, she makes a chair come all the way up to her and it goes all the way up to her face.

Now, if I do that normally, where would I even put the strings for that?

So I start here with the camera upside down. I have the strings in the back because you're not going to be looking at the back. And as it goes back, you pull it back. And then when you reverse it, it goes... And it looks so good. You can't spot the string. If you look close, you see the strings are in the back, but your eyes. So I did stuff like that. And then just her, like getting the hose.

And then I just do stop motion for the host turning on, you know, the faucet. That's why I gave her special powers so that, and it made the story better. So sometimes the limitations you have with equipment or location, you can use it to make, you know, take chicken shit, turn it into chicken salad. Take this camera that everyone was like, what's this? And I go, I can do so much with this.

But I tell you today, I look at that camera. I can't believe I ever made a movie. It's so ridiculously primitive. I was like, how did I even think I could get anything done with this? And it even exposed and mariachi the same way you have to think about it. I shot mariachi on film and with a bar of 16 millimeter camera, I didn't know how to use it.
