- 7.18.05 : We head on down to WORKPLAY for the kickoff event

- We went really minimal on this one only 2 actors and one Multipurpose Crew member (Josh). But i this is one of our best shorts ever. We had alot more time to spend with editing and music. Josh and JP wrote the treatment and screenplay Friday night and we filmed almost everything at Josh's grandmother's house and basement. Josh designed all of the wardrobe, costuming, makeup set design and props, using sticks and blankets and different available props from my grandmother's basement.
