48 HOUR FILM PROJECT : MADISON

JMM VIDEO ART artists teamed up in the summer of 2011 to create a film for the 48 Hour Film Project:Madison.


On Friday Evening 7pm the group was given the following 4 requirements.
Genre chosen - Fantasy
Character- Matt Michaels - musician
Object- Calender
Dialogue- "Where do you want to meet?"
All Requirements needed to be included in the film and the film had to be completed by Sunday at 7pm. I'm pretty sure there was not much sleeping Friday or Saturday night.
Great Job FILM MAKERS as usual you have made Memorial PRUOD!
