Applied Artisans Participate in 48 Hour Film Project

For the fifth year, a small team of filmmakers, including two Applied Artisans, some clients, spouses and freelancers spent a sleep deprived weekend participating in the 48 Hour Film Project. Their goal? To write, shoot, edit and score a seven minute film in only 48 hours. Team A Sense of Urgency, along with 48 other teams, was assigned a prop, character, line of dialog and genre that had to be incorporated into their film.

The variables:
Character – Carl or Carla Ross, plumber
Prop – coins
Line of dialogue – “Who came up with that?”
Genre - comedy

The local contingent of Team A Sense of Urgency consists of Courtnee Carstens & Michael Rossow of Applied Art, as well as Chad Baker of the Meyocks Group, and freelancers, Carol Baty among others. The team produced a comedy centered in the highly competitive world of rock, paper, scissors. Take a look!

The fans for the tailgating scene were solicited on Facebook to participate in the production.
