If you've been keeping up with the show, then you know I've been pretty busy the past few weeks working on a no-budget short film called The (Hide And) Seeker.  If not, you can find out the details on the film's production blog right here.

The film was submitted to be part of the Campus Movie Fest, a national film festival that travels to universities across the country and gives students the equipment to make a movie.  All teams are given a one week timeline to shoot and edit their films, after which the Top 16 get shown on the big screen at a red carpet event, and the best ones are awarded prizes.

Not only did The (Hide And) Seeker make the Top 16 and get screened in front of a large audience, but we also won Best Actor and Best Comedy!  We got a bunch of cool stuff, including some iPods, Final Cut Studio 2, and a fake Oscar statuette that looks like a golden Ken doll with an afro.  The film also moves on to compete in the CMF regional finals in Atlanta in February.  Woohoo!  Not bad for a student film with no budget and non-actors...

Anyways, the film is available for viewing on the CMF website, though you'll have to settle for a small screen.  To access it, click here, or on the picture to the right.

Feel free to offer any constructive criticism, since I'm trying to grow as a filmmaker.  Not only that, but I'm also working on a longer "director's cut" of the film, so if there are things you think I should (and would be able to) fix, let me know.
