  Each year, the interns at OHD Studios participate in the 48 Hour Film Project. With a small crew, we accepted the challenge and spent the weekend making our genie come to life. 

   A highlight of this project was getting to shoot with an ARRI ALEXA Mini LF. It was truly humbling to weild a camera used by some of the greatest cinematographers of our time. To be honest, I didn’t know how to do a single thing with it except press record. BUT, one day I will be back with more expertise to maxmize this camera’s limitless potential. 

   Overall, I’m proud that this film got finished. 48 hour projects always have thier fair share of choas. This year, I decided to embrace it and let our constraints become fuel for creativity.
