This short film is a project I helped my screenwriting partner's little sister shoot for her highschool film class. We shot the whole thing in two hours on DV (using the hvx though). I found out about an hour before shooting that one of the two main guys wasn't going to show up, so I ended up having to act in it myself! Since I didn't have any of the script memorized, AND I was trying to figure out how we were goign to shoot the whole thing before the sun went down, we decided to take talking points from the script and essentially improvise the entire thing.
It was a really fun afternoon, back in the mindset of highschool film making, where you weren't worried about perfect lighting, blown images, or even boom mics in the frame... it was about having a good time, and teaching these kids a little bit about film making.
So, that said, it's not the prettiest piece out there, but people really seem to love it, and I think it's pretty hilarious myself (watch through to the end, it goes in a completely different direction than you'll be ready for). I hope you enjoy it! (don't forget to leave comments and ratings on youtube, Id love to get this in front of more people).
