Eight-ish is the story of a young fashion photographer about to celebrate his 21st birthday by throwing himself a party and inviting all his friends, including one ex-girlfriend and one model obsession. But it turns out they have a few plans of their own.
This film was made by Jon Raymond, handling almost all aspects of production including producing, directing, photography, sound, lighting, and editing. He had a production assistant on two of the seven shoots, but handled the other five days alone, relying on the actors to do their parts well. The original story writer and co-screenwriter, Gus Sacks, and the musicians, Kelley Vice, Brian James Weber, and Kevin MacLeod were all found online and collaborated mostly by email and have never met the director in person. With the exception of Kevin MacLeod, whose website offered his music royalty free, they and the director were all members of Francis Ford Coppola's
