Director's Statement: A La Commode is an improvised film. Both in terms of performance and Direction.
I was told someone had dropped out, and I could make a One Take Super 8 film on Thursday. I picked up my film and camera on Friday. I fleshed out the script and wrangled what help I could on Saturday. I shot on Sunday. I dropped off the film to be sent to the lab on Monday.
