The Testament of Tom Jacoby proves that artistic intent is more important than a large budget to make an effective and suspenseful movie. Shot in stills edited together with a rich sound environment the impressionistic look of the movie works well to create real suspense and atmosphere. What makes the moving-still treatment work is an impeccable sense of timing.
Movies like Tom Jacoby should serve as inspiration for amateur filmmakers to take a fearless plunge into producing independent films. With a volunteer cast and crew, some borrowed equipment, some time and dedication plus a real desire to create something beautiful you can accomplish great things. Good independent productions are reminders of the origin of the word 'amateur' from the Latin amator meaning lover. An amateur is not someone who is unskilled but rather someone who undertakes an activity for the love of it. Tom Jacoby shows a love of the art from it's creators.
