Helpless Squirrel Surrounded By A Dozen Dick-Heads With Camera Phones

I'm walking with Sam through Temple Campus today (on our way to the "Ten O'Clock" shoot -- last day!!!) when we stumble upon a large group of people all smoking and holding their arms out in full extension with camera phones snapping pictures and recording a hawk cradling a poor, innocent squirrel on the sidewalk. The hawk was repeatedly biting at the squirrel, who was now long gone, and looking up at its spectators.

If I was there minutes earlier, I would have saved that squirrel. And all those stupid fuckers on the sidewalk... they've got the nerve. They should have jumped in there and saved him themselves. That's all.

Ten O'Clock

Working on our (Nick Kohut, Samantha Park, Andrew Clark, & Yoseph Abdelsalam) entry for the Five Day Film Festival. Last day of shooting is tomorrow, so hopefully we can wrap this thing up. The first two days I learned that even at one of the top ten film schools in the country, you're still not allowed to film inside most of the buildings. I haven't asked yet, but I'm wondering where, if anywhere, I can shoot outside on campus. Big pain. But we got a permit and were able to film a good 3 minutes of the required 4 to 6. Now we just have one more scene and some simple shots in between.

Ten O'Clock will be re-edited after the festival for YouTube. FiveDayFilm usually posts all entries anyway, but we like to expand our entry later to relieve any "rushed" feelings.
