CAUTION: THE VFX SUCKS IN THIS FILM. VFX ARTISTS, I BOW DOWN TO YOU. About: Imagine a reality where going out for sunshine is a luxury, where you don't have windows - what would your experience of time be? The film tries to express one such way of keeping time, where sunlight reminds you of a forgotten time. After two weeks of highly meta conversations, sleepless nights and cancelled plans, the little film is here.

JOMO: 9-Shot Exercise Made this for our Elements of Direction module. The brief was to make a video using 9 shots with a shot of a sunrise/moon (clearly the sun did not want to come out that day). We finally shot this from 11pm - 6am with max sleep deprivation and stretched out resources. But I'm still pretty proud of how it turned out within all these constraints.
