As you may know, Will Reading is now streaming on Amazon Prime Video! It’s a very exciting time – and, it’s kind of bizarre to go to Amazon and see the movie in search results with big budget Hollywood movies. But the thing is, it’s generally buried, found pages and pages deep in Amazon’s search results.
First, a big congratulations to the cast of Will Reading on the debut of the movie streaming on Amazon Prime! They worked hard and waited a long, long, LOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG time for this!

The Will Reading to do list is getting shorter! Here’s what I have left:
I’m that close! I don’t want to give a date, but Will Reading is coming to streaming! And it’s going to be soon –really soon. I am so excited to share this final version of the movie with everyone. It’s been a long road, and there were a few times where the problems looked insurmountable, but finally, we’re going to get to share the movie with the world.
Get excited!
After I watched Will Reading with an audience, I was struck by two significant flaws:
1. The beginning of the movie is unbearably slow
2. There weren’t enough memorable images
The first problem was the biggest of the bears. I came up with what I thought was a solution, but after executing it, I found that it just didn’t work. In fact, adding three minutes to the front of the film turned the movie into a confusing mess.
This sent me back to square one: how do I open the movie in a way that is both intriguing and well paced? I decided to simplify my approach and focus on tightening up shot length, swapping out the music and adding a few new shots that would open up the first few moments of the movie. This made a big difference and with a solution finished, I was able to move on to the final bit: making the movie look a bit more cinematic.
Ultimately, for the opening of the film, this meant adding three more shots and changing the composition of a few existing shots as well as other trims and minor changes. I doubt anyone but me would notice the majority of the work, but I do think the film moves along at a much better pace now.
So is this it? Is it finally done? I don’t know. I still have to cut in these last two shots and I’m not entirely sure they’re going to work, meaning I’m going to have to shoot them again. I was outside, it was windy, cold and I was working alone. These are not great conditions to shoot in, but it was the best I could do at the time. I might have to call in reinforcements and start from scratch. Fortunately, it’s just two relatively straight forward shots and if I can’t cut them in successfully, reshooting them is not the end of the world.
