Interesting Deaths – Episode 1 – Jeremiah Clarke
What with this new world of Co-Vid 19 going around, a little more free time on my hands I decided to pull one of the many unfinished projects I have sitting in a pile and completed the audio/edit.
So without further adieu, here is the animated original short: Interesting Deaths – Episode 1 – Jeremiah Clarke. Hope you enjoy it!
Clerks Guide To The Galaxy – A #StayAtHome 48 Hour Mashup Trailer
We spent the weekend toiling as and keeping our minds busy with the worldwide 48Hour film competition (April 3-5, 2020)
We had to choose a movie from Column A and a movie from Column B and long story short, we went with Clerks and Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy.
Aside from so many worldly things trying to keep Eric from doing this not limited to Rogers shutting his internet off prematurely due to a switching of gear…he stepped up and provided some demented live action/green screen footage.
Lisa Kennedy (Trillian Brie), Paul French (Jayphod Bobblebrox) and Patrick Williamson (Dante/Marvin) all helped provide needed voices.
So thanks for all the fish, and hopefully you get a kick out of this silly little mish mash during these less than cheerful times.
Tone Death – A Serial Killer Musical
Back in October 416Film.com took part in the Toronto 48 Hour film contest once more.
Our genre: Musical.
This may be my least favourite genre but I feel like everyone involved busted their asses for this one. It didn’t put us in the finals but it is a weird, fun little film with 6.5 original songs.
Thanks to everyone involved including Paul French for the music. The writing group of Patrick Wiliiamson, Eric Myles, Ibrahim Mohamed and Rob Paul.
An old schoolmate Michael Obadia came out to do cinematography and ended up playing a role singing The Conspiracy Song, Lisa Kennedy made her 416Film debut with as a adult/child serial killer, and as (mostly) always Neil Bennet and Patrick Williamson did not let us down by playing a couple of fairly stupid detectives.
Written, shot and edited in 48 hours (although lightly tweaked after the original screening in November please feel free to abuse your soul with 416Film’s latest offering: Tone Death. Hope you enjoy it!
