The film had to be shot and edited over a 48 hour period hence the competition name and the (perhaps) amateur look of the film. The idea is that you write the film, storyboard, shoot it, edit it and put the sound on within a 48 hour period. We are given a list of items to include in the film to prove that it was made as part of the competition. All the sound (apart from the actor's speech) was home made and dubbed on afterwards. Most of the mechanical sounds were samples of trains coupling and going over rusty bits of track. The evil whispering voice was partly made up of a sample of the irritating woman from AOL run though Reaktor. The lift dropping sound contains a sample of a B-52 taking off. Seemed to work. THE 4 MAIN CRITICISMS WE'VE HAD: 1. The phone dropping sound is a cheesy "glass breaking" sound from the net. ANSWER: The sound is a sample of the casing of that very phone used in the film plus an equally heavy object being dropped on a hard floor. 2.Ha Ha I saw the cameraman for a split second. You're rubbish at editing etc. ANSWER:No you didn't!. That's the "Entity", an evil, medieval, lift-haunting spirit. I know I don't look particularly scary with a pillowcase over my head but what do you expect in a film made on a budget of £0.00? 3. In the end scene the lift drops for far too long, the floor indicator shows he is at ground level and he continues to grimace for far too long after that. AMSWER: Well what do you expect for a film edited in a few hours? Just give it some artistic license, imagine there's a basement or that the lift has fallen into the bowels of hell. 4.In the end scene the actor (Mr Stephen Moorhouse) should stick to the ceiling when the elevator cable snaps. ANSWER: Er...no, although he may not have fallen to the ground as he does, the man may have experienced a brief split second of weightlessness but after that a phenomenon known as "terminal velocity" takes over. The actor, the lift, a feather or a herd of elephants will all weigh the same in that situation, there's no air resistance. Galileo proved that in the 16th century....blah blah blah. What do you expect in a film made on a budget of £0.00? By Chris Russell, Chris Renyolds, Liam Dermott, Marcus Roberts and Fran Shine. It was hard work, but as you can see, we chose a very simple idea in order to make the film somewhat successful. Unfortunately the signs don't show too well on the small screen, but hopefully you get the idea that the building is empty and due for demolition, hence no one comes to his aid. The film took 5 hours to shoot in Margate's tallest building in Kent, UK. We had to share the lift with the residents of the building, so we felt pretty sick going up and down all day in a little windowless box... which probably explains Stephen's brilliant acting as the film goes on. We spent most time on the sound, which was very important to the film, unfortunately some of the sounds have been lost due to compression for uploading. The film is best viewed with the volume up as there are some very haunting background effects going on. We used sounds from submarines, and planes landing and taking off, mixed together along with all sorts of metal sounds and gunshots, and generally messed the sounds up so much you'd never recognise them.
