Mini film in one hour

A minute is short, so you'll have to work out what actually matters to you.

Start with one sentence: what the film is about. Without it the hour goes into pretty shots about nothing. Shoot eight to twelve short takes of about five seconds each, on your phone, no tripod — hands, a window, the road, someone's back, that one place. Shoot more than you need; half won't fit. Edit in any free editor, cut anything longer than five seconds, and keep it under sixty. Pick one sound — either your voice or music, not both. Show it to one person and watch their face, not the screen.

What did you cut first, and why did that turn out to be the extra?
