With just a few days of Screengrab remaining, I thought I'd take this opportunity to squeeze in one last double-feature episode of Self-Promotion Theater.
The short subject below is Sock Pox, my entry in the 2009 Boston edition of the 48 Hour Film Project, a competition that takes place throughout the year in 80 cities around the world, wherein teams from every walk of life are given 48 hours to shoot a 4-7 minute digital movie. Each individual team is given a specific genre to emulate, and all teams must also work in a common prop, character and line of dialogue. (In this year's Boston competition, for instance, every movie needed to include a magnet, a "second-in-command" character named Marty (or Mary) Quinzani and the line, "Yes! I mean, I hope so." And, as should hopefully be somewhat apparent, my team's genre was comedy.)
The second feature is 3:15, a ghost story featuring the students of the Burt Wood Summer Arts Festival (a great vacation activity, by the way, for Massachusetts kids of all ages, if you happen to know any)!
Okay, that's it for the plugs...and now, on with the show!
