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 two shots -sadly and unexpectedly- didn't make it in the roll of film. The sound gives off the ending.

"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
