Best Use of Prop


Brandon did the 48 hour film festival for the first time this year. He had so much fun and is already planning next year. It began Friday evening. He had a representative from his team head done to the meeting in Salt Lake. At that meeting they were given the genre, a prop to use, and a character name. From that point on they had 48 hours to write, film, edit, and burn a 7 minute movie. Things were pretty intense for him and his team. He had a small part for Spencer, so I got to go watch him work for a bit. It was pretty fun to see how he just takes control and gets things done. They turned in their film with a minute to spare. They shut the doors behind him. He was pretty tired for the next few days. He has since been to parties and screenings. He has made a lot of new contacts, that he hopes that will open new doors in helping him live his dream. At the award ceremony he won an award for the Best Use of Prop. There were 44 films, and to be recognized as one of the best in that group is pretty impressive. Way to go, Brandon!
