Lesson Comments
Sebastian and Christopher should have limited collaboration in classes. 30 minutes. Christopher struggles to contribute and subverts his own creative focus to his frustration when Sebastian is in the "zone" writing his movie. Film Club meetings should be a group meeting effort of the entire cast/crew and enable updates of the film and shooting production.
