Film Projects - Coke Ad filmed for school project

I am a junior in film school and this is my final project for the Cine 1 class I was in last semester. In Cine 1 we get our first exposure to a 16mm camera and we film in black and white. Our final project is a short film or an ad for a project and I chose to film a commercial for Coke. Because my schedule was so tight I couldn't find a full crew to film with, all I had was a few actors (one of which was also a film student), me, and my partner.

What we came up with was pretty cool, considering that this was my first project where I was working on my own. My crew, as it were, was terrific. I made a few mistakes along the way (not turning the adjustable exposure open, a lot), but it turned out alright. Especially when I put it to music. I found a piece of very experimental music from one of my favorite frontman's side projects General Patton V.S. The X-Ecutioners.

Check it out and let me know what you think.

Fun piece. 16 mmm is so much more cinematic than digital. That's what I used to shoot in high school.
When will you have my DVD available?
I really really need it! Lisa Carlson
