Is it really a film if it's less than 5 secs?

Owning a Cadillac in the UK is not particularly desirable anyway, bankruptcy would loom at each petrol station.

No, it really wouldnt be a film.. More of a short clip...? Yea, but having a caddy is just plain cool...especially since it goes zero to sixty in 4.6 seconds... and if you are afraid of the gas mileage, you could sell it for quite the attractive bit of cash.

I checked out the website. Interesting.

They have some 5 second sample films you can watch. The one titled "Intern" made me laugh. There's very little time - deadline is February 17th.

I have some 16mm and super 8mm footage that I've already shot from unfinished shorts that I can edit together that will produce a 5 second cohesive narrative. But not much time to transfer that stuff to video as they will only accept internet-ready video form. And I've never uploaded my stuff onto the internet.

But I'm gonna see what I can do.

I'd sell the car and put that money to use for a film. I'm not into sports cars - I have a simple pick up truck. Plus I'm moving back to NYC soon anyway. You know how much parking costs in the city?!?! Even a parking ticket is like $110 - I got a few when I lived there.

Here's something interesting, Exposure is the administrator of this 5-second-film contest.
