Jay Hollinsworth assembled the narrative components of Circuit from a series of unrelated story sketches that he and former Hartford Art School classmate Michael Mongillo had been fabricating over their years since graduation. Originally conceived as a feature, financial constraints–coupled with the ever-expanding scope of the project–forced the filmmakers to modify and condense the treatment into a tight, twenty minute short. Like any DIY endeavor, production entailed the wholesale recruitment of friends for the cast and crew, many of them H.A.S. grads themselves. Utilizing a handful of locations around New England either borrowed or "stolen," it was shot intermittently over a period of two years and eventually cut at Boston Film/Video Foundation's then-brand new digital editing facilities. The film was completed and unleashed upon an unsuspecting world in 1995.
