Abstract
The Coin Collector is a short film that follows the story of a handful of people discussing the mystery behind a strange man who wanders around town carrying a giant canister of coins on his back. Everyone has a unique tale about him, but as the story unfolds, we get to uncover just who The Coin Collector truly is. It is ultimately a story about humanizing people we deem as outcasts. The project was designed to give myself and other film majors experience in taking a movie from script to screen. This process included budgeting, auditioning, filming, and editing. As director and producer of the project, I had to oversee every step of pre-production, production, and post-production. A proof of concept for one scene was shot and edited in October of 2023. The rest of the film was shot in February of 2024, with a final edit completed in April of 2024.
