All of you who have followed us from our humble begginings (not many of you) know that we aren’t the best at getting things started, or done on time, or done at all (RIP 1337)
Anyways, we’re finally getting underway on our next project… Kinda. After securing a location [which will hopefully be done this weekend] we will only need a few more parts to fill before we can begin.
This brings me to my point. If you happen to go to our school (Tamanawis) then feel free to pop in on our auditions. We’ll be holding them at lunch on Monday.

So I know we haven’t been updating the site lately, but we should. So in addition to today’s posting of the full version of Open Doors, I present to you kthxbai, A short video that’s 100% improv’d. As stated in the vid, we were just waiting for a movie to start. We were actuallty supposed to shoot Stolen that day, but one of our guys couldn’t show up, so I called up Twizzler to come and just make something. I told him about the movie we were going to see [Cars - yeah, this was shot a while ago], and, in the background, his mom actually asked if he had gil.
Anyways here it is:
More on this later, lots of homework right now!
FYI, we ended up being nominated for Best Picture and winning 3rd Screenplay award out of about 120 submissions!

After much delay and ado, I am very happy to announce the release of Digital Films’ first release : Stolen - Part One!
the reason that it’s part one is that with all the delays we still have to shoot the second half of the film. So Ben [the red-haired on in the movie, Dinnab on this site, and my co-host on episode 1 of the Podcast] came up to me and said,
“Why don’t you release it in two parts? That way at least you will have released something.” So I did. And here it is, for your viewing enjoyment.
Keep in mind that this is basically the first film any of us have ever tried, and my first stab at editing original content [I made a Halo video once]. Also, I was the entire crew for the movie [Shyam and Ben did as much as they could, but in the end they had to do the acting]. Finally, here is the film, Stolen - Part One.
Special shout-outs and thanks go to Dave Basulto and Red Giant Software. Without Dave’s podcast, Filmmakng Central, I would never have heard of Magic Bullet Editors and we wouldn’t have achieved the cool film-esque look we did. Also thanks are deserved for Mr. Sangha and Tamanawis Secondary for letting us borrow a Canon ZR-600 without any questions asked
