The Seeding: Scott Hayes on the battle between extreme elements and psychology
Bleeding Cool: What attracted you to “The Seeding”?
haze: I was intrigued by the unique script for “The Seeding.” There aren’t too many scripts that are told in this kind of two-person format, and I get to work opposite a phenomenal actress. I admired Barnaby’s vision. He’s a first-time director, and I felt connected to what he wanted to do with this story.
As a survival story, what elements of the script particularly impressed you?
What struck me was the hopelessness of this man’s situation. It was a relatable emotion as he was thinking as a human being, what would happen if he were stranded in the desert or something happened to him and he couldn’t contact his loved ones. And how would I feel? I could relate to that too. I empathized and empathized with the situation.
Was there anything you brought in from the outside, or were there moments in your life that helped guide you to your personal experiences while filming?
Many times in my life, in different ways, I felt that I was the one in this heat.
What is it like working with your castmates and their presence on set? Did you bond in any way before shooting your scenes?
Kate is amazing. She was the most generous professional and scene partner I had the pleasure of dancing with throughout the entire movie. As the situation was difficult, she was generous and caring, not to mention patient. We were shooting below and I can’t say enough great things about it. She is wonderful as a partner and we will remain friends with her for life. The boys came from Burnaby’s Mad Scientist Casting. They were phenomenal and had a very unique perspective and point of view. We’re lucky to have all the actors in this movie on board.
What does a project like this allow you to do outside of your normal wheelhouse?
Not many movies are made that feature two-handed weapons like this. It’s unique because it feels like theater, and I’m in the theater now, so I came from the stage to a film environment that is very similar to acting on stage. The two of us run the cameras and supervise the actors as they bring it to life.
Was there a sequence in the film that was the most difficult for you?
The hardest part was that I had to take prednisone to get my voice back. In that sense, it was physically difficult. It was freezing cold and one of the toughest. If you’re shooting in Utah in the 0 degree summer, you’re probably covered in sweat and wearing a t-shirt. It’s fine as is. All this kind of filmmaking is not pretty and ridiculous at the same time, right? With so much going on in the world, I don’t think it’s that difficult. It was difficult in terms of having to act, but not as much as the wider scope of life.
I was interested in the biopic you shot about Mary Pickford. What was it like? Can you tell me about that?
I don’t know much about that movie. I made that movie as a favor to a friend. I think a movie will come out. I know it’s been re-edited several times, but I don’t know exactly what’s going on with that project.Director Jennifer knows. [DeLia], she is a remarkable pioneer woman and accomplishes great things. I know that.
