Me and my friends have of(fish)ally made a movie!
I'm pretty proud of how it came out too :)), okay it might not be the best thing in the entire world ever but I would humbly argue it deserves at least second place (jokin')
I spoke about it in earlier posts, but it really was ridiculously fun to put together. I never really considered film as a medium that I could work through for future projects/ work but it is such a compelling format. I found my little 'team' I worked with really enjoyable too!
I've always really enjoyed story-telling in general (I really adore writing short stories!), and film is a great way to take those ideas and elevate them into a more digestible/ shareable narrative :)).

We ended up being real try-hards about it and filming across a boatload of locations, as well as including a cacophony of mediums like puppetry, mask making and hand-drawn animation to name a few.
To make it a little easier on our tutors to mark as well as for us to put together, we split the project into sections that we could all make individually then put together to make a relitivley cohesive whole. It was a super fun to collaborate with everyone and I loved seeing all of our stuff come together in the end!
If you want to see a pretty freaky collection of videos of me and my friends looking scary and getting hit square in the face with a wet fish I've included a link to the theatrical release below, feel free to check it out :D
