Awesome Dead Ringer

[Killing_You]

As you all know, every year I take some time to participate in the local 48 hour film festival by Missouri Western State University. For those unfamiliar, teams of filmmakers are given 48 hours to write, shoot, edit, and submit a short film based on an assigned genre. In addition, each team is required to have three elements; a character (Chris, a patient), a prop (broom), and a line (Where have you been all my life?)

Two years ago, we drew Action/Adventure, made Just Libby, winning Best Use of Prop and Best Use of Character. Last year, we drew Noir, made Always Together, and won Best Editing and Best Use of Line. This year, we drew Horror, made Dead Ringer, and won Best Special Effects and Best Original Score. As always, I loved every second of making this, and I look forward to hearing what you all have to say!

I can't believe that got put together in 48 hours. That just looks like so much work! Quite impressive.

Believe it or not, even though this had the most practical effects, this was probably the easiest of our 48 hour films to make. Trust me, trying to choreograph, film, and edit even a 30 second fight scene is incredibly difficult to do in a short time span. Either way, thanks for the compliment!
