About the Hot House Company Film Festival:
Just like any other film festival, teams of 2-4 had to create a short film to be presented. The main challenge in this film festival was that we had to make it unique, so my team and I decided to make our film a puppet pals animation. My team consisted of myself, Nishaan Sunner and Ricky Qiu, and together, we all used our different skills to create a wonderful film. Our film got selected as one of the winners, and we each won $25 JB-HI-FI gift cards. Not only this but our film was presented in a ceremony with all the other winners of this Film Festival
‘The Runaway’ Film:

After that we kept recording until it was the best we could make it. Our third element was the easiest and quickest to finish. We decided to add the song Stairway to Heaven, which was played via Garage Band to easily access this piece of Audio.
