For some context: At 7 pm on a Friday, all of the teams picked a genre at random from a hat. We picked "sports movie" which, as you can imagine, was terrifying for a bunch of "inside kids" on the wrong side of 30 like us. All of the teams were then given a few elements that must be incorporated - a character named Josie or Jared Blarmer who is a barber / beautician, a prop which was a certificate of some kind, and a line of dialogue which was "Your guess is as good as mine". We then had exactly 48 hours to conceive, write, shoot, and edit a 5-7 minute film and submit it before 7 pm on Sunday night.
The whole thing was insane but also some of the most fun I've ever had. Some really amazing people (and a couple of pretty alright randos) were kind enough to donate their time and talents to making this thing happen and I can't possibly thank everyone enough. I'm honestly very proud of what we were able to accomplish and I hope you enjoy it.
