Short film exercise

This is a short exercise that we've made in the third year of international film school eicar. The first trimester was about making commercials, so this is 30 seconds exercise that we've shot during one morning in October 2004 in Ivry - Paris. As I can remember, Jack Wung was camera operator and editor, Luc Walpoth did some basic lighting, Mirella Habr was an assistant director and I wrote the script and directed it. Our directing teacher was Ilkka Jarvilaturi.
Just a note for young filmmakers; in the shot before last one, we used the split screen, but in this case not as an effect but to cheat the number of people in the shot. If you watch very carefully, you will see that most of the people appear twice, ones on the left side of the screen and the other time on the right side.
