More than a year after the production of the movie, we were finally ready for our premiere! ...And what better venue to showcase this high energy, low budget, local production than Ottawa’s oldest active movie theatre: the Mayfair Theatre, operating since 1932!
The day was somewhat stressful for me since the DVD that was to play that night was not yet completed! I still had to render the final version of the movie, add all the production features, the sponsorship spots, etc.. and then burn the disc. But fear not, it was only 11:00am in the morning and the movie started at 7:00om, I had plenty of time!
Around noon, as I was progressing in my work, I get a call from someone at CBC radio asking if I can do an interview on their drive home program “All in a Day”. Of course I was thrilled with this opportunity but what was really running through my head was: do I have enough time to finish this DVD?
