So she sacrificed nights out and worked two jobs while earning enough money to get it made and how it was so hard to write it after coming home from workWe talk casting and what should an actor do in a casting and why you might get cast or not . How the first day on set was embarrassing. How an actor pulled out the day before and only filmed 5/8ths of a page on that first dayWe talk how having a mentor is so important in the film business and how she got distribution for the film and got it out for people to see. And how she has made her second feature A Kiss on Candy Kane Lane on two weeks notice and even worked her job during the filming the schedule.Roads, Trees and Honey Bees trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n8T20Qbl5voWATCH Roads, Trees and Honey Bees film here https://www.amazon.com/Roads-Trees-Honey-Bees-Nicoteria/dp/B07RH7Z9M8/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=roads+trees+and+honey+bees&amp;qid=1558717357&amp;s=gateway&amp;sr=8-1Follow Stephanie on INSTAGRAM https://www.instagram.com/mcbainentertainment/LINKSMAKE YOUR FILM returns with hosts Giles Alderson and Dom Lenoir for a fourth installment after three incredible past events.
