This is me and my dad. I used the people, places, equipment, and emotions available to me to make Covadonga however I had to, and the hope is that it‘s more unique to me and for others as a result. We had 40k and a cast and crew of 10. Do it how you’d do it, and don’t ask permission.6yr ⋅ shartofilis ⋅ r/Filmmakers
My name is Sean Hartofilis, and my second feature film as writer and director and first as lead actor, Covadonga, comes out tomorrow (Halloween) at Covadonga.film. I’d love to do an AMA tonight, October 30 at 8pm EST, or I guess whenever, if anyone’s interested. Ask me anything!6yr ⋅ shartofilis ⋅ r/movies
In writing my new film Covadonga, I focused on one location and a small cast to ensure I could make it, letting me focus all my creativity into the story and be visually dynamic enough to keep the setting interesting, which inspired invention. Write what you can make, and you don’t need permission.6yr ⋅ shartofilis ⋅ r/Screenwriting
“In Kubrick’s A Clockwork Orange, The Shining, and Full Metal Jacket, a character’s psychological evil is often sold through their eyes—Covadonga’s Martin Ravin is no different, and is potentially the most frightening.” -Dominic Hastings, Set the Tape6yr ⋅ shartofilis ⋅ r/Filmmakers
