Back in 1999 my friend Yuichi made a short film starring me, Erik Nilsen and himself for a highschool film class. He edited on two VCR’s and handed in the silent film to his teacher.

A few years later, I wanted to practice editing a film on my computer so I took his finished film (30 minutes or so) and then recut, added sound, music, effects, dialog, titles and credits to come up with this 10 minute version.

This was a learning experience for me, and also a time capsule of my and my friends in high school.
