But actually we had been preparing for it for a several weeks previously, getting actors, lining up gear&#8230; and since it started on a weekday, I had already put in a full day at work.<\/p>\n<p \/>\nSo really the marathon for me started Friday morning.  When we turned in our thing on Sunday, suddenly I felt myself relaxing- it was a euphoric feeling, like finishing the last final in the semester when I was in college.<\/p>\n<p \/>\nI realised that the only thing keeping me awake was stress, and the last time I felt free of a total panic was Thursday night.  I also remembered on Thursday night trying to sleep extra hard, because I didn&#8217;t expect to get any rest until Sunday night.<\/p>\n<p \/>\nAnd it worked out.  Again, as in school, I felt fine after about 3 or 4 hours of sleep.  And, just as in school, the second I was done I started to get sick.<\/p>\n<p \/>\nSo, to recap, my jedi training from Cal served me well.<\/p>\n<p \/>\nNow that it&#8217;s done, I can spend more time getting a quality product out, and then comes the <b>really<\/b> fun part- promotion.  That&#8217;s when you get to mention your project to everyone even vaguely related to film, and self-aggrandise as much as possible.  Hey, they would do it to you!  I&#8217;m going to try to get this thing played just about everywhere.<\/p>\n<p \/>\nThe best thing about this kind of project is that since we spent almost no money on it, we don&#8217;t have to worry about trying to get money back on it- we can show it for free, we can bundle it with other stuff, the list is endless.  Fun stuff.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>48 Hour Film Project: We started at 7pm on Friday and worked until 7pm Sunday.
