Wow! Found this while looking for past entries from last year since I just entered the SF 48 Hours for the first time this year. This is the best 48 Hour film I've seen period! Brilliant animation, did you submit this year too? Hope to see another one of your films at one of the screenings!

[ChineseTakeoutFilms]

@VishalSinghFilms We did do another one this year! It's called "How The Spot Was Won."

[ChineseTakeoutFilms]

Thanks, everyone! We had a blast making this. We had so much fun that we might even do more shorts in the same style.

great job, but i doubt that you guys did this project in the allotted 48 hours...

[ChineseTakeoutFilms]

@grampskvideo Thanks! We're pretty happy and flattered to take this comment as a compliment!

[VishalSinghFilms]

@ChineseTakeoutFilms Haha yeah I know, I was at the screening!! It was definitely my favorite from all of group A's films

This is excellent! When I first heard this story, I wasn't scared but this gave me chills.

Great work. Nice job. Feels genre solid... and creepy. :)

@grampskvideo Thanks for owning up.

Okay, I've dealt with this privately, and I want to make sure everyone knows: I'm sorry for being such a persistent douche.. I didn't realize how rude I was being by flaming the youtube page for this submission. I removed my comments. Let's let it rest.

@grampskvideo I am amazed not only at your persistence in denying the fullness of their accomplishment but also at your determination to now reframe your issue as being about how they did or did not defend themselves in order to avoid simply admitting you were wrong here or apologizing.

@grampskvideo doesn't seem to understand the process behind motion graphics; did he think this was old school frame-by-frame animation? While this is an incredible 48hr film project [congrats guys!], its clear to me that its something possible to finish within the time allotted, so long as you had someone on the team who was a good artist, and another who knew & had After Effects and Final Cut.

Good work, guys!
