SB and I were asked by Erik to join in the festivities this weekend. We are so excited!
Last night, at 10pm, we met at The Grand to officially check in and get our parameters. We now have 72 hours, until Sunday night at 10pm, to make a film of no more than 5 minutes.
We must also include:
- A Tacoma landmark
- The line, “What we have here, is a failure to communicate.”
- throwing, tossing, or dropping
- a hat or cap
The three of us went to Doyle’s afterwards to brainstorm and I think we came up with something really good! Erik is writing today and we’re trying to get someone to let us use a very exciting location. (We’ll use it anyway, but it’ll be cooler if we can get inside) We’ll film it tomorrow, edit it on sunday, and it’ll be shown on the big screen at the Rialto on Thursday. There are prizes for best use of each of the elements, as well as best in fest prizes by the judges and the participants.
Exciting, eh? I’ll do my best to document our process for you. I’m gonna be a STAH!
That is so cool! I can’t wait to see what you all come up with.
beth c.: It was cool! I’m not sure if anyone other than the lucky witnesses on thursday night will ever see it, though.
