Some of you may have noticed that I have been able to turn my projects in way early. Well I can attribute that to the fact that I am not new to the whole design world. I am not a designer by trade, wish I was though, but I have dabbled in doing things using some Adobe products already. In my video bar, I have a certain movie in there that my friend and I created. We were really bored and well we wanted to do something along the lines of making a short film. When it was all said and done, we submitted it to a couple of different film festivals. One being the CAMM/Video Bake-off right in Baltimore. We were able to attend the festival, and we wound up winning "Best Effects," which I did for the most part. However we didn't win best overall picture (we should have though, but we didn't invite any of our friend along, we just wanted to see how we would fair in the publics eyes), but we did come in a close second though, losing by only one vote. I was a little upset, but very pleased with the award we got.
What really made the night special was after watching all the other films, which dealt with suicide and stuff of that nature, the audience was falling asleep, trust me I was one of them. Then our corny film came on, and it brought down the house. It isn't a great film by any means, but what we did, we were able to make an action film that got the audience on the edge of their seats. After it was over, the audience gave us a standing ovation and it was a great way to end the night with our film being the one that got the audience excited. Please take the time to check it out, the quality isn't all that great, but it is a you tube film, and please let me know what you think.
