Student Films

These are short films our film team have been working on based on friendship, trust and depression.

I was wondering if these student films would be able to do anything for the community we live in.

"Fading Trailer"
The main theme of this student film is about Friendship. The great trusting bond in it, the weight of how far a promise can go and how crushing it can be to

dearly care for another.

"Fading Redo Trailer"
A Re-do of a film that I did a year ago. In the original first script it had 7 major characters, in the summer of 2008 that I attempted to do the film in I

only had 2 weeks to work on it while finishing up summer school courses and a job. Here is a reattempt to bring back the original message I wanted to convey.

"Vanilla Raspberry: Episode One"
Two girls that are living their life in high school. They dont know each other but one day they accidentally bump into each other and are shocked by each

others existence. One of them is a fashionable girl who is following the drift in the normal high school girl life: chatting, gossip all the regularities.

Even though the popular group- the group of friends that she hangs out with - is known to be stuck up and self-centered, this character is able to follow the

school trend and be a charismatic, warm person as well - which is rare and grows during the story. Most of the screen time will revolve around this

character. Her theme that describes her character throughout the storyboard is Vanilla. The other is a tomboy girl without a care in the world what people

think about her. But even though she looks like a trouble maker, she is actually an honest person. She struggles in her classes, life and misfortune seems to

surround where ever she goes, so at some level she has seemed to give up on a lot of people because they fail to realize the fact that life isnt easy. In her

eyes everyone is spoiled and careless. Her theme that describes her character throughout the storyboard is Raspberry.
