FILM ONE was originally shot in November and December of 2005 as a film school project by Director Erik Kristopher Myers and Director of Photography Jamie Bender. The assignment was for a ten minute documentary, but Myers and Bender accumulated so much footage that their professor asked only for a section of the film for screening purposes. Their submission was nearly an hour long, and they still hadn't shot the ending (the climactic screening of Bill and Ethan's film at Towson University).
