I directed a movie for the 48 hr film project this year and I had a blast. You basically have to write, shoot, and edit a 4-7 minute movie in 48 hours. I never worked in the indie film world so I was really excited to give it a try. The only people who had any experience on the crew were the editor, the sound tech, and myself as the DP/Director. The rest of the crew was made up of my wife and some buddies who I bribed with alcohol.
It was a blast. It made me fall in love with this business all over again. We placed 18th out of 110 teams and for my first year I thought that was pretty good.
We shot it with my HDX-900 recording to a FireStore.
We basically did a mockumentary spoof of Sport Center feature story.
I recommend this project to any shooter out there, whether you are just beginning or a 30 year vet.
A little advise, Direct it yourself. You don't want anyone telling you what to do. That happens in real life everyday.
