48 HOUR FILM FESTIVAL: TEAM ROBOT ENTOURAGE

Zup all

Entered the 48 hour film festival with my friends (under the name ROBOT ENTOURAGE), and had a fun time, our genre was Comedy and we shot a short film called RESPONSIBLE PEOPLE. The short is about a man (Henry Lai) who wakes up in Yumla after a wild night of partyin during Halloween. Handcuffed to a dead man in a Tiger suit (Spencer Douglass) he has to explaign himself to a hungover cop (Mike Chan) and the bar owner (Dan Findlay). Things however get complicated when they discover the dead man is also ticking, and may have a bomb inside him.

We proudly picked up a Category IIB rating (because of the swearing, beatings, stabbing, drinking and probably the scene where our main character sniffs a two meter line of cocaine off a bar)

My idea was to make something kinda nuts which mixed Takashi Miike with Spaced and am generally happy with the result.

At the festival I also got to do a Q&A which was cool ! (Thanx Jona for the pic)

Our team got a prize but I'm not gonna go into or lay claim to it.

In terms of competition my two favorite film's of the festival were King of Bullshit & Run Edwin Run.

The after party @ Drop was amazing and had quite the time at that. Check out Joe Fiorello's page if you wanna see some pics !

Will upload the short film soon !!
