I'm A Stranger Here Myself - Video

 
So here is the official version of our 90-second film, what did you think? 

I had such a great time and it was an amazing experience to shoot produce, shoot and edit something in such a short space of time. This task was umarked but we were told we had to work under 5 obstructions:
- 2 hours pre-production
- 2 hours shooting
- 2 hours post-production
- All set in a studio
- No more than 90 seconds
Our pre-production ran from a little after 8am to a little after 10am, although our (the crew) day started at 7.30am so that we could go to the local shop and buy food for everyone. The shoot started just after 10am and ran for two hours while post-production started around 1pm or 1.30pm after we'd had a long break.

Don't forget to let me know what you think, and check out this post for behind the scenes photos!

Oh dear I clearly didn't do a good enough job with this editing and that last picture looks really blurry. These pictures were taken back in August just before I went on holiday, nothing special really just something quick I threw on before I went to see my visit my sister.
