| A still from the trailer of Unsolved |
This past week I was again adjudicating a local eisteddfod
for a small town in Mpumalanga. Besides running late on the first day due to 27
late entries, and missing out on my supper the eisteddfod was relatively uneventful.
Well, besides the 5 to 6 year old category, the youngest of the eisteddfod,
deciding as a group to walk onto the stage to collect their certificates after
I had directed them to the floor space to my left to receive them from me personally.
And a child with a silver certificate walking up to me and informing me her
father would purchase her something or other if she received gold. I was not
sure how to respond to this. So I was rather thankful when, on my second
morning I was running ahead of schedule and had a full hour for tea before my
second session of the day started. During this time I turned on my cell phone to receive a
message on the whatsapp group for the team I was part of the 48 hour filmproject. The trailer for the film we had shot two weeks ago had been released! As the trailers for films friends of mine had been in popped onto social media throughout the week I was awaiting the release of hours with baited breath. And as I refuse to look at any of the takes while I'm busy shooting I was excited to see, on screen, what our film is going to look like.
Tomorrow the short film UNSOLVED for the 48 Hour Film
Project, made by Zwoosh! premiers at Cinema Nouveau in Rosebank Mall. Most of our
team, including myself, will be there for the premiere. Our film shows tomorrow evening at 20:00 and again on
Thursday the 26th at 20:00, Saturday the 28th at 14:30
and Sunday the 29th at 17:30. Enjoy a couple of short films, and see
the wonderful work filmmakers are doing in Johannesburg.
