Well this happened some time ago and I meant to post it when it was exciting, current and super uber cool… but I didn’t.
BUT, back in May I took part in the V48 Hours Film Competition which was pretty fun. I was part of the Ruffell Productions entry and helped out with a spot of acting, location sound and some band recording/soundtracking.
It was the most relaxed 48 Hours shoot I’ve probably ever been on – we drank some gin and plotted on Friday night, slept a solid 8 hours and then filmed from 930am – 6pm! Beautiful. On the Sunday we convinced the Unfaithful to come into the studio and record a tasty (but adequately stupid) theme song for our short.
Our genre was ‘Sports Movie’ which was pretty fun, the character was Sydney Manson – a fabricator, the line of dialogue was “when you look at it that way” and the prop was a broken toy. Each team also had to use a dolly or hitchcock zoom somewhere in their short film.
Anyway, here’s our entry entitled ‘Hot Foos’ – let me know what you think!
PS – I might post up the full version of the Theme Song to Hot Foos at a later date too.
