Did this one in film noir style (at least script-wise.)

Here, enjoy the good cause of saving energy:

Alex,
Excellent!

:) Thanks, Steve!

This one was done super fast. The entire production, voice dubbing (ADR), post, and final renders took about 6 hours altogether. I think it's a record for me.

Your camera positively shines - no issues.

Thanks Alex. Maybe we have a new idea for a festival - the 8 hour PSA/commercial festival. They give out a product/cause and you have 8 hours to produce a 30 second spot. At least no one will lose any sleep like they do at a 48 hour festival.

Please note that my 6 hours did not include pre-production (creative, writing, auditions.)

That part took a couple days.

Production and post did take about 6hours after that.

Realistically, if you take that pre-production time allowance away, you will end up with even crappier films ;) than with 48hr challenge, hehe. Referring to my own here, of course. I'd rather not sleep.
