Check out this video that me and some friends made for a 40 hour film competition.

The genre was horror, the action figure was a prop we had to use and "love is a metaphysical gravity" was a line we had to say.

Enjoy!

cool a fellow film maker. What editing system did you guys use? Final Cut?

Adobe Premier for basic editing and after effects for the light sabers and other trickier bits.
I had to learn how to use it as I was going as I hadn't really done any editing before.

Heh, yea most people that I've asked don't understand it either.
About 35 hours into the 40 hours we realized that there were a few missing bits in the plot but we didn't have enough time to do anymore filming!

Basic plot is that they go to the store to buy the lightsaber, but the gandalf toy falls into the trolley and comes back with them. It then proceeds to kill them all until the last guy remains and kills him with a lightsaber.
..yea...
