Chickens!

This short "film" was a test to play with my new camera I got for Christmas.  I was so engrossed in the footage that I didn't notice a chicken had died.  I ended up incorporating it into the film, but also learned to appreciate how difficult filming documentaries would be because my dad kept going while I was fiddling with my camera.  Because of this, it's a little broken up but I still think the chickens look good so here it is!

Welcome!

This short film was entered into the 24-Hour Filmmaking Marathon in the LDS Film Festival 2011.  The contestants had 24-hours to create a video under three minutes in length that incorporated a theme, object, and dialogue line.  This year's theme was generosity, the object was a dollar bill, and the line was "What more can...?"

It was my first time participating in the film festival and I had a lot of fun!  Spencer helped out a lot and we won an Honorable Mention.  Pretty good for a first timer eh?  Now that I know what to expect, I'm really excited to participate in coming years.  Enjoy!
