Space Monkey (dorm showers)

We got involved with this group called Shatterkind here on the Hampshire campus, which decided to tackle this 60 second 5 college film festival thing. This is my (Anna Lensch + Group Awesome) entry.

The one we submit will not have the DancingBean stuff or the added subtitle of dorm showers. It will say group awesome instead.

I was the Cinematographer, as usual... and editor... also as usual. I'm pleased with how it turned out.

Hamlet is almost finished!

Today is the day we finish up the editing for Hamlet. There are a few scenes we have to re-edit from the ground up, and we still have to combine everything and ensure that it flows, and record all of our original score, by the end of today... But I have confidence that we will finish. We have to. Especially since we're leaving for Hampshire College on the day after tomorrow. Crunch time!

Hamlet "To Be or Not To Be" Scene

Here's a delicious little preview from Hamlet: The to be or not to be scene. Hamlet should be premiering in September. Alek & I won't be able to attend the screening, what with College just starting and all, but we will be there via Skype.
NOTE: The audio is too quiet (we forgot to turn up the levels for exporting), so here is the narration, provided below:

To be or not to be, that is the question. Whether tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, or to take arms against a sea of troubles and by opposing, end them. To die, to sleep no more, and to sleep to say we end the heart ache and the thousand nature shocks this flesh is heir to. Tis a consummation devoutly to be wished. To die... to sleep... perchance to dream. Aye, there's the rub, for in that sleep of death what dreams may come? When we have shuffled off this mortal coil, is has give us pause. The dread of something after death, The undiscovered country from whose born of no traveler returns, puzzles the will and makes us rather bear those ills we have then fly others we know not of... thus consciences make cowards of us all.

SLC 48 Film Fest: UPSTAGED

For the big official 48 hour film festival, Alek and I decided to team up with the incredible David Westphal and Kody Riekena (Projection Pictures) to create Upstaged. Our Genre was "Family Film", which was an incredible challenge in and of itself, what with 4 violence loving, gangster happy filmmakers. But we did it! The line was: "What were you thinking?", the prop was toilet paper (I wish it would have been something more interesting), and then our character had to be "Miles or Meg Madigan", and they had to be a magician. So... Here it is!
