Tonight's the Night
In association with Lenovo and Campus MovieFest
In June of 2012, Lenevo Computer Corporation released a short film called "Seize the Night" to advertise their line of Ultrabook laptops. That short film would also spawn a worldwide TV commercial campaign using a shorter edited version of the original film. Lenovo and Campus MovieFest held a contest for ideas on alternate endings.
After thousands of submissions Splice of Life was one of the top 15 ideas chosen, and we were awarded a small budget and a laptop to film our idea. After a 2 week turn around time from notification to finished product, I present to you "Tonight's the Night".

Behind the Scenes
For the opening hospital scenes, we had trouble finding a local medical facility to shoot at.
After coming up empty trying to secure a location, we decided that we could "make" a hospital using props. After contacting a local prop house, we secured everything we needed to make the hospital scene look good.
This is a time lapse of us dressing the set in an empty bedroom in my apartment.
