I shot this horror piece over Halloween. Horror is a new genre for me, so this was all about messing around and trying things I hadn’t done before. We shot the whole thing in one location, a house, down in the basement, and worked with what that space gave us.

It was a new kind of narrative for me to build. Leaning into suspense, playing with sound effects and music to create the tension and carry the dread. That was the fun of it, figuring out how to make people feel something through what they hear as much as what they see.

Natasha, the actress, did a fantastic job and really brought it to life. For a first real swing at horror, I honestly scared myself a little, and I had a blast making it.
