The 48 Hour Film Project is film as sport. On a Friday night we were given a line of dialogue, a prop and a character that must appear in our film. Each team picked a genre out of a hat and had until 7:30pm the following Sunday to write, shoot, edit and score a film between 4-7 minutes long.

Line: “I’m trying my best”
Prop: Chair
Character: Dr. Richard (or Rita) Hernandez
Genre: Comedy

I couldn’t have been with a better group of friends to make this film. It was our first time as a group working together and making a film. We wrote it as a team with no egos to get in the way of revisions or suggestions. Everyone trusted each other to do their jobs, we worked hard to get it done and laughed almost every second of the way. Team RoundAbound is a sherpa. By the way, this is a RoundAbound and this is a sherpa.
