Don’t you want to see it? click here to watch or right-click and select “save as” to save it to your computer

It is about 20, 000, 000 bytes big and is a .mov, so you will need QuickTime to watch it.

I wrote the script and was probably the main character and all the voices. Probably.

We made this entirely in the space of 12 hours.
We were not allowed sound and we were not allowed editing outside the camera. If you make moving pictures than you know that doing everything as you go inside the camera is just about the worst idea ever.

So far it has had a good reception, but so far the only audience has been our fellow classmates who lived through the same predicament (TRUE STORY!) encountered in the film, so the true critics are yet to speak.

Here you go, The Internet. Be nice, I am not a real actor, I just play one in short films.

Absolutely wonderful. Should win an Oscar.

And Yes, editing inside the camera is a horrible idea. I’ve made a few short films in my day, and we had no editing software, so we did it all inside the camera. Needless to say they were terrible.

How can you say you’re not a real actor? That was genius!

I especially like the voice of the protagonist’s mother.

And stop making your films MOV’s. I can’t make Quicktime go to full-screen!

… And they keep pestering me to buy it.

Yeah that was quite cool. I didnt expect the whole dubbed foreign movie theme and was pleasently surprised. Also that is totaly my phone in that movie. Isnt it crap how closely fashion and design around the world follows each other these days?
