I had a blast this past weekend making a film for this year's National Film Challenge.
Myself and Steve Valdeck headed up a team of eight that trekked into the heart of a mountain snowstorm, had to reschedule our entire shoot, and ended up making a very good short film, Crashing.
The film deals with a married couple on their way to a marriage retreat who find themselves lost in the wilderness.
The required elements we were given at the beginning of the competition were:
1. Prop- a wooden spoon
2. Line- "I've never heard it put that way"
3. Character- Jesse or Jessie Samson, DJ
The genre our team drew was Drama, which we chose over Sci-Fi.
The shooting was very fun, stretching from Saturday into Sunday due to weather concerns closing our initial location. After lots and lots of post production work, we mailed the film with a half hour to spare.
It will be posted on the National Film Challenge website in a week or so, where it will be up to be voted on for Audience Choice award, so we will be counting on all of your support!
