Short Film: Unwritten - Made for the Sci-Fi London 48Hr Film Challenge
  • Wow, what a weekend. We had 48 hours from 12 noon on Saturday, until Monday noon today, to write, shoot, edit and deliver a film for the Sci-Fi London Film Festival (http://www.sci-fi-london.com/48-hour-film-challenge). You're given a title, line of dialog and prop to do something with.

    It's far from perfect, and the big lesson I learned, was don't shoot green screen for your first time and expect to complete in 48 hours! I'm incredibly proud of our team pulling something like this together in so little time though.

    Here's our entry:

    Supplied Brief: Title: Unwritten Line: A perfectly ordinary person is rare in our society Prop: I (Heart) Badge: We see a character pin a badge with “I (The heart symbol) and any word” on to another character or an object - not just put on desk etc, must be ‘pinned’.

    Camera: GH2, Sedna AQ1 (SanDisk 95B 64GB), Smooth -2, -2, -2, -2. Lenses: Panasonic 24/2.5 plus Panasonic LA7200, Canon FD 35/2, FD 85/2 plus Bolex Anamorphot 32/16/1.5 Filters: Tiffen Pro-Mist 1/4 (for 24/2.5), Formatt ND 0.3, 0.6, 0.9.
