it wasn't just us

we set a pretty simple goal for this year's entry for the 48-hour film project: to make people besides just ourselves laugh. not that making ourselves laugh isn't a noble goal in and of itself, mind you, but in designing something for an audience, you naturally want to satisfy that audience. i'm pretty sure we achieved that goal. we got probably the second-most laughs (next to a movie about a holiday called 'no pants day' which was hilarious. perhaps funnier is the fact that when i searched for the movie this morning on the usual places, i found that there really is a no pants day and it really was may 4th!), and the movie really looked pretty good on the big screen. some of the editing stuff that i really hated didn't actually turn out quite as bad as i remembered, and a lot of the little details came across well (as in, the audience noticed them). it was a really good time in general, and thinking back on the stuff we learned this year and last year, we'll come back strong next year, too.
