The original film was filmed in the duration of two days and was eventually scrapped due to a group decision regarding the quality of the film.

We then began to watch a plethora of youtube tutorials and films that related to the theme of our film, learning new shots, editing techniques and how to present a film.
Here are the Behind the scenes of our original product:
