CARY COMES HOME FESTIVAL FILM CHALLENGE - 'CAN"T SAY IT IS 'CAUSE IT AIN'T'

This was made as for the film challenge set up as part of the 'Cary Comes Home' festival in Bristol (carycomeshome.co.uk). A two day event set up to recognise the legendary actors Bristolian roots.

Taking North by Northwest as the main inspiration the challenge was to produce something under 90sec and must include one of the following

• A suit
• A classic quote from North by Northwest
• A compass
• A field
• A train
• Sunglasses
• Matches

In my haste I sort of misread that bit and included a bit of everything!

It uses performances of the band projected onto resuscitation dummies which seemed to work almost too perfectly for a song where one of the main lyrics was 'let yourself breathe'.
