New Hampshire Film Festival 2008

In the Cards is a short character study of how a young New Yorker (Stephanie Sellars) pre-interviews her dates over coffee to see if they are compatible and worth more of her time. After a a few men, and even a woman, she gives up for the day. On her way home through the park she just happens to walk by Mr Right, and takes him home.'In The Cards' is a short film from the 2008 NYC 48 hour film project. Marc Dole and Stephanie Sellars met 3 months before the production at the Newport Beach Film festival and discussed wanting to pull a team together and do a real intense project with a small crew. They assembled the team through craigslist and other online job postings and on day 1 of production 23 people who had never worked before met for the first time to complete the marathon 48 hour project. We lost locations to a street fair, getting kicked out of our next location for noise constant rewrites due to lost locations and all the while working together to hit the deadline to burn 2 DVDs as we sped through NYC to Chinatown to make the deadline.
