lot_will-set_1065rcjw.jpgQ. Mark (RealityWanted.com) Hey Will, great to have the chance to speak with you again. Looks like it's down to the top 10! Is the pressure getting hotter now?

A. Will Bingham: Most definitely; the fewer people left here each week the harder it is going to get. The most talented film makers will stay to the end and it will be become increasing more difficult to get past them. Each week we are all turning out better projects. Gary Marshall, Carrie Fisher and the guest judges are seeing the flaws that are so obvious to them; and in doing so it teaches us and each time we create a new film they seem to be better. Their critique is helping us to improve.

Q. Mark (RealityWanted.com) Looks like the camaraderie has improved quite a bit since the first few episodes we saw; is this the case?

A. Will Bingham: It's a funny chemistry we all have. We are all friends, there is no one here we don't like; but the fact is we are competing with one another. As we get closer to the finals we try and help one another as much as we can with scripts. As we trim down the cast from the top 10 to the top 5, I am sure we won't share as much. We all want to succeed and be the last man/women standing.


Q. Mark (RealityWanted.com) Who do you feel is your greatest competition currently On The Lot?

A. Will Bingham: Everyone has strengths and weaknesses in certain areas. One person is Zach, he and I like to come up with ideas that are out in left field and since we have similar styles we try and outdo one another with the craziest ideas.


Q. Mark (RealityWanted.com) What have been some of your favorite shorts by other contestants?



A. Will Bingham: Adam Steins film from last night "Worldly Possessions" stood out to me as one of best films I have seen. I am glad he was able to rise up since he was worried about elimination. I thought it was his best work to date.

.

Q. Mark (RealityWanted.com) Along with Gary and Carrie and including all the guest judges, whose advice did you sincerely appreciate and take to heart.

A. Will Bingham: I take all their critique; it is all useable to me. One guy who stands out with best advice for me to grow with was John Avnet. He was sharp guy and gave great advice. The same with Brett Ratner, he was a great judge to have as wellQ. Mark (RealityWanted.com): Tell me about the feedback you received for your short film "Nerve Endings"? I did like it but had to cover my eyes since I hate blood...but I suppose if I got that kind of reaction your film worked, right?

A. Will Bingham: I knew when I made that movie a lot of people would love it and hate it, it was risky. I did not know what kind of votes I would get. Carrie liked it and Gary was ok with it. Mark Waters said he did not like it as much based on other work I had done. It received the highest box office ratings that week and those votes gave us insight to our audience.


Q. Mark (RealityWanted.com): Do the box office votes influence what you want to do with your next film?

A: Will Bingham: Yes it helps us know our audience better and how to play to them.


Q. Mark (RealityWanted.com) : Is there anything else that you want to say before we go?

A: Will Bingham: I won't be directing this upcoming week which is the "Action" genre. The film makers who are will be using stunts, car chases, and more. The viewers will really enjoy it.


Mark (RealityWanted.com): Great talking with again Will, best of luck and we look forward to seeing your next film short.
