48 Hours



They told us we couldn’t make an animated short within a 48 hour time limit using last minute information while working out of a cramped hotel room and lobby on no sleep and little more than some pizza and sugar fueling our absurd lust for cinematic madness. “That’s just the way we likes it” we told them. Armed with a ridiculous plot pulled from desperation and a team of talented non-animators, we were able to create a story, literally like no other. In a fog of grainy, cookie-cutter indie films that have you once again wondering how anyone thought the mess you’re witnessing on the big screen was a good idea, “Apple Rain” stands as the lighthouse guiding the viewers safely into a harbor of comedic delight and laugh-‘til-you-piss-yourself enjoyment. This animated jewel would not have existed had it not been for the incredible talent and efforts donated by our amazing team. Thank you Will, Steven, Paul, Mark and Lisa for bringing this twisted dream to life. Never before has a movie about apples tasted so good.
