The Watcher - Straight8

straight8 asks that competitors to make a film, shot on just one roll of super 8, with no retakes and no post production, and then submit an original soundtrack ‘blind’.

*DISCLAIMER* The last shot -sadly and unexpectedly- didn't make it in the roll of film.

"Perhaps the reason we struggle to fully love our own work as it is lies in our constant evolution-or at least our drive to grow as artists. Our work evolves alongside us, and ironically, the moment we make a decision, we begin to question it, propelled by our desire for growth. Yet, there is undeniable beauty in how our art reflects us—a snapshot of a moment in time, not through a mirror, but in a wholly unique and transformative way."  Erica Sarah Carrubba
