Luck of the Draw: The Making of Roulette

Crew Confessions:
"For the record, I'm not typically insensitive to the needs of other (i.e. the ambulance that "won't go the fuck away"), but for all we could see, no one was actually loaded in, nor did the driver actually get out -- there was just an ambulance with flashing lights sitting there across from where we were trying to shoot. It was simply one of many strange and inexplicable moments in an exhausting (and very surreal) day of filming.

Also: I was unaware of how much time and thought Laura had put into "doctoring" Ali's dress until I saw this video. It was the first of many times throughout this process that I had been so consumed by The Big Picture that I failed to notice how much work was going on around me. The little details are the ones that, I think, are the coolest to discover."

Baby Bump chronicles the first half of shooting on October 12th. Featuring Ali Lukowski (“Sunshine ‘Sunny’ Howard”) and Jan David Soutar (“Leon Carmichael”), the scenes completed on the day all take place inside Leon’s apartment. Filmed in Baltimore’s Canton neighborhood, Writer/Director/Producer Erik Kristopher Myers and Director of Photography Jamie Bender combated noisy neighbors, crazy drivers, ambulances, and more as they tried to wrap the first half of the day and prepare for the much more difficult scenes to come...
The second half of the day is chronicled in Part 2 of Luck of the Draw, Naked Thoughts.

Also featuring: Brian Andress, Adam Ballweg, Laura Myers, and Zachary Trees
