48 Hour Scramble
Last weekend, I worked with a really cool group of guys and girls on a film for the SoAL Film Festival. The concept was for the festival’s 48hour Film Scramble. We had 48hours to produce, write, direct, shoot, and edit the film. The scramble concept was “Mobile, We love you” and our location was Spinghill College. The film is a love story/comedy that takes place in the Springhill area titled, “Steal My Heart” and debuts Friday, Nov. 6th during the opening of the SoAL Film Festival at the Crescent Theatre. Try to come out, check it out and vote for our film before you go off and get into whatever it is you’re gonna get into later that night.

Hey man, what’s happening? So check it, I’ve seen the other entries.
1) We’re more than likely going to win the technical achievement award, if there is one. Ours was definitely the best looking film.
2) In a bizarre turn of events, we were one of two films (out of about 6 or 7) that went over the time limit. So that whole “Everyone goes over the time limit” thing… in all honesty it is true, it really is, but in this scramble everyone stayed under except for us and one other team.
3) Tony is in charge of compiling all of them for the viewing, and on things that aren’t the tv monitor in the V1 office, the boom mic shows up in the kitchen shot… Tony edited that out… so score on that.
4) Tony pointed this out, and now I can’t stop noticing it/thinking about it, but every time the actors would put the phone up to their ear with their shoulder, or they would look down and talk, the audio would clip a little bit because their mouth was directly in front of the lav mics. It didn’t bother me at first glance, but now it’s on my nerves… not going to be a detrimental thing for the competition though. Just a nuisance
Yeah, that’s kind of all I got.
Yeah, That boom mic is killer. Every person I showed it to pointed it out. I thought the audio was not so good from the beginning. The two end close ups sound like hell. Oh well. 48 hours, huh? Thanks for the update.
