About this submission
This is my first Fiction Film, I wrote the screenplay for this challenge. I filmed this with my cell phone, the Moto g power. I came up with the idea to do an Indiana Jones sort of fan film. I won a Kabuki Marionette at an Auction years ago, figured that would make a good artifact.
The exterior shots are near Red Rock Canyon outside of Las Vegas, and the interiors in my roommates house. This was a real challenge, my Moto g power had trouble finding focus (zooming in and out) and much of the footage was not useable. Editing was very interesting.
Thank you to the Sundance Collab for this opportunity.
