Hi guys. I'm a lecturer at blackburn college and shot some footage of making a cup of tea as an editing exercise for my students. 29 seperate shots in total!
I gave them all the exact same footage but wanted them to use it in any way they wanted, to see how varied and stylised and personalised they could make them.
This was my effort to show them my interpretation and a possible use.
I showed it at the 'Filmonik' open mic filmmakers night, hence the ending and filmonik logo at the end.
Hope you like it!
Cheers
Andy

Yeah go for it!
RyD22, I used good old Premiere to edit and grade everything (in my opinion the best NLE program around) but the students use final cut pro.
For the voice I used Cool Edit Pro 2.0
I've not got there yet, but one thing I strive for, and something I take from shane's films, is to try and tell a simple story/narrative really well. Without too many flashy whistles and bells on.
If you can a simple story, and make it funny, touching, sad and engaging, you are a genius.
Just like Shane.
