We are competing in the San Jose 48hr Film Project.

Teams are assigned a random genre, then a required character, prop, and line of dialogue.

We ended up with.
Required Genre: Drama
Required Prop: Board Game Piece
Required Character: Zack the Exterminator
Required Dialogue: "Tell me again why this matters."

You then have from 7pm Friday night until 7:00 PM Sunday night to write, shoot, and edit a movie.
Even the music has to be written in this time.

I was in charge of Lighting and then Post Production, so I worked 41.5 of the 48 hours.

One line of dialogue is out of sync, but we just didn't have time to fix it.
(We delivered it with less than a minute to spare)

Nice, I enjoyed it. Really liked how you used your required "exterminator" creatively hehe.

I didn't like Jimmy's acting (maybe it was about his voice not fitting for his image of hired killer), but that love scene was good

btw music remind a bit of Gabriel Knight III music :D

For only having 48 hours that was great, good job!

great job, especially for 48 hours. i really loved the ending, though i think it would have been better if we didn't see the face of the woman who was being axed. still awesome though

Wow, that's pretty good in 48 hours. The few other ones I have seen are usually just nonsense.

What kind of cameras do you guys use? The quality looks great.

The music is great, the mood is set well, and the story's fantastic. I especially liked the ending. The only stuff that didn't go so well was the delivery of some of the lines. Great job, considering the fact that you only had 48 hours to make this.

The chess moves seemed kinda odd. I mean, rook pawn openings for both white and black? Am I missing some sort of symbolism here?

Oh man, at first Paolo was moving two or three pieces at a time!

I slowed him down "Just move one at a time!"

Didn't have time to make him memorize Tal and Petrosian, but, well...yeah.

And I agree about the lines.

The quality of this is amazing. Really liked the lighting and the mood of the entire thing. The sounds were off in a couple of places but I completely understand how you only have 48 hours.

Seriously though this is awesome, great work!

Gonna type this as I watch

Production seems pretty good, although you could do with a better fill on "Jimmy" in the chess scenes. We're losing a bit of detail on his face. His cadence is pretty terrible compared to his counterpart.

The lighting from the stairway on is stark and over-dramatic.

Overall though, for a 48 hour film it's very good.
