"Leave Me" (3 minute short)

Post by crystallions » Sun Apr 12, 2009 3:12 pm

I had the honor to work with Daros Films this weekend as we made a 3 minute film for a 36-hour film competition. With everything else going on this weekend it was a stretch (one performance, one rehearsal, a wedding and an Easter-egg-hunt all within the 36 hours - and a little bit of sleep ). We were all working until the last minute. Because of the time limitation I never watched the film until it was finished and uploaded on the internet by midnight last night. This was the first time ever I scored a film fully never having seen any of it. (I know it was short - but still...) Thanks to Ryan Dunlap's (the producer) excellent guidance as to what was needed the result is beautiful. That shows what can be done even in short time when there is good communication.I have posted the film below. If you enjoy it feel free to go to the youtube page and vote (for how many stars) and/or leave a comment. I hope you enjoy!~ Lydia
