And the timeline too, it's like we

had been planning this thing for years and just like little coffee shop dates or going out to a restaurant and we'd bring our notebooks and laptops and sit down and hash it out.

And then I think what really helps too is announcing it to friends and family, like a soft announcement, because when you say, oh yeah, I'm going to do this project.

If you don't say it to anyone, you can't really... you know, like they're like, Oh, how's your project going? And then you're like, Ooh, I haven't done anything in like two months.

And so it kind of does help to get accountability partners a lot.

Um, but, but also like our next film, yeah, it's like, we're already working on the next film because we know like if we come off of that momentum, it's going to be a lot harder to get back to it.

Um, So basically, like, you know, because we both freelance independently, like anything we we make financially tends to go back into the film.

That process really works.
