Drew Daniels and Romina Olson: Oley

Oley experiments with visual stimulation and finding beauty in normality. The quintessential Texas landscapes are as much characters as the main leads and the soundscapes looming over the scenes. I recommend to sit back and enjoy and not ask questions...just enjoy.

We made this film spaced out over a couple of weekends, just me and Romina, sometimes we had the help of an additional person but that was rare. Romina drove the truck, I filmed out the back, she pushed the dolly, i shot the scene. Under the guise of several cinematography class projects, we completed this film out of short ends, discontinued film stock, and donations. Romina and I both "directed" this film but much was improvisation and instinct on behalf of everyone involved at every stage of the film. It was a fun experiment that we'll never forget...in celluloid we trust.
