Great Short Film – Time to Evolve

Directed by Sean Brown, some friends of mine at Southern Illinois University put together this amazing post-apocalyptic comedy epic “Time to Evolve.”

Simply put, the world as we know it is over and humanity’s last best hope for survival is a group of idiots.

This film looks great, and despite being really really stupid people, the characters are incredibly consistent and work. The core group of actors also forms the base of the video sketch comedy group Magic Hugs. Check out their website www.magichugs.com if you have a chance.

Engagement Video

As of 9ish tonight it will have been a year since this little thing was shot (and I asked Anne to be my wife).

It has gotten a little internet press (most notably featured on some Chilean national news site haha). Since the posting, I’ve talked several people through what my process was, both technically (to fake the film burn despite a digital projection) and logistically (Q: How do you get a movie theater to show your wedding proposal? A: You ask them nicely.)

For the record: no Quantum of Solace didn’t have any special significance (only screen with a DVD player/projector in the theater), and yes we did stay to watch the whole thing haha, I don’t think we paid too terribly much attention to it though. Watchmen trailer was selected because we were both nerding out over it at the time waiting for the release.

Anyhoo, I have some other cool genre shorts lined up for next week (and maybe a sneak preview of a news short actually made by us) so come on back!
