Production history

In September 2005, a week prior to the first scheduled day of production, Chusy contracted Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever. Bedridden with debilitating headaches and sustained high fevers, the disease sent Chusy into a near-comatose state. Over the next few weeks, he slowly recovered, and feeling the pressures of time and money, Chusy made the executive decision to start production, shooting on the Panasonic Varicam.

In March 2006, Chusy flew in cinematographer and long-time friend, Patrick Rousseau, to perform camera tests on Panasonic's new P2 camcorder, the HVX200. The camera's relaxed workflow was a breakthrough for Chusy, and having had several months to recover, Chusy took advantage of Patrick's availability and resumed production on March 21, 2006.

July 20, 2006 marked the first official shoot day for Penance, which appears as the first story in the film. The last official shoot day for Penance was August 14, 2006. August 9, 2006 marked the first official shoot day for Ignorance, which appears as the third story in the film. The last official shoot day for "Ignorance" was August 20, 2006.

Patrick Rousseau flew back to Asheville, NC to shoot reshoots for the story Penance from February 13 to 18, 2007. The remaining voice over work was recorded in Chusy's home with Virato.
