Last weekend I met three strangers from around the world, with one thing in common - love for Cinema! ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ⛵️ ⛵️ ⛵️ ⛵️ ⛵️ ⛵️ ⛵️ ⛵️ ⛵️ ⛵️ ⛵️ ⛵️ ⛵️ ⛵️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
A weekend challenge put out by the Global Film Industry Cafe brought us together. Thanks to our matchmakers at the GFI, Jordan and Fernie Mary I met,Willy Mwanaume from Australia Stephen Goss from UK and
@Jenifer Vine from the US (that's how our team has such a unique name- InAuUkUs). We were given one color and one theme to write a story, shoot, and edit on, all that within the next 36 hours.
Other than the Maths involved in all the time zones (4 different ones), I think we did also struggle with getting the resources, etc. But after the nail-biting night and with about 2 hours to spare, we were finally DONE!!
Producing and making this all was sort of a time warp for us all. This new-found
#connection within us is like our arts, a thing to cherish for long. Each one of us had been extraordinarily effective at their game throughout this, kudos to all!
Make room for a miracle!
Special Mention:
Through this, I also fell in love with my other
#connection, my
#internet ? Despite the heavy rains, it never left me alone, to fight the battle. As a team leader, I can't imagine having botched it up for those sorts of reasons.
