A-pearl-calypse Now was made for the 2005 48 Hour Film Project, the second movie by team Obnots. As part of the project we had to use a string of pearls as a prop, the dialogue "I'm not really like this", and the character 'J. Withers, former child star'. And our genre was horror. This movie is about oysters coming out of the sea to reclaim their pearls. Much gore ensues. Obnots won the audience award for our group's showing at the Brattle Theatre for this movie. This is version 2, with a few fixes and additional scenes.
Cast & Crew: Andrew Sewell, Ben Kram, Jeff Mission, Joed Polly, Leslie Diamond, Jeremy Bruce, Stephanie Bruce and Amanda Laws. Plus additional cast.
Tarts & Hose was the first movie by team Obnots for the 2004 48 Hour Film Project. For this movie we had to use a garden hose as a prop, the dialogue "What's the plan now brainiac?" , and the character 'Spudgy MacGonacle, pastry chef'. Our genre was comedy. This movie is about the rise and fall of a boy band, born from Spudgy's pastry shop, called 350ยบ. We got a lot of laughs at the screening... although due to a series of misfortunes, the opening of Tarts & Hose ended up playing five times that night, when it should have shown twice. This is version 2, with several fixes and such.
Cast & Crew: Andrew Sewell, Jeff Mission, Joed Polly, Stephanie Bruce, Amanda Laws, and Pat Nichols.
Tarts & Hose Outtakes is just what it sounds like, amusing outtakes from Tarts and Hose. There seems to a decent amount of leftover wacky footage when you're dancing with hoses and brooms, occasionally in public. It's even funnier if you happened to be one of the six people "there".
Cast & Crew: Andrew Sewell, Jeff Mission, Joed Polly, Stephanie Bruce, Amanda Laws, and Pat Nichols.

The Hardly Boys
The Hardly Boys was made for the 2006 48 Hour Film Project, the third Obnots movie. We had to use a bike pump as a prop, the line of dialogue "That's why I don't trust her anymore", and the character 'G. Goforth, competitive eating contestant'. Our genre once again was comedy. The movie follows the grown up Hardly Boys as they attempt to solve a mystery at the New England Regional Sausage Eating Competition. New this year: we finished the movie ON TIME! This is version 2. Check out the outtakes for some extra goofiness.
Cast & Crew: Andrew Sewell, Annie Berman, Ben Kram, Chyle Crossley, Cory Schuman, David Rodal, Jeff Mission, Jeremy Smith, Joed Polly, Leslie Diamond, Rachel Imbriglio, and Stephanie Bruce. Plus additional cast.
Love Bites
Love Bites was made for the 2007 48 Hour Film Project. It's the fourth movie from team Obnots. This time we had to use a shoelace as a prop, the line of dialogue "When you come up with something good, let me know", and the character 'Tom or Thea Quimby, gossip'. Our genre was comedy for the third time, which is pure nutball. The movie is about two star-crossed lovers, one a Tranpire, and the other a member of the Ancient Order of the Straightlace. Much ass biting ensues! Oh, and we were on time again this year. This is version 2 with a few fixes and a deleted scene added back in.
Cast & Crew: Amanda Laws, Andrew Lindsay, Andrew Sewell, Ben Kram, Heidi Fjeldheim, Irina Peligrad, Jeff Mission, Jeremy Smith, Joed Polly, Leslie Diamond, Pat Nichols, Tim Brenner, and Zev Fisher. Plus additional cast.
The Hardly Boys Outtakes
Yeah, so we had some extra *silly* left over from shooting The Hardly Boys. Honestly, this is probably more fun to watch if you were part of the making of the movie, but hopefully it's amusing either way.
Cast & Crew: Andrew Sewell, Annie Berman, Ben Kram, Chyle Crossley, Cory Schuman, David Rodal, Jeff Mission, Jeremy Smith, Joed Polly, Leslie Diamond, Rachel Imbriglio, and Stephanie Bruce. Plus additional cast.
Love Bites Outtakes
Here are the outtakes from Love Bites. Hopefully nothing in here embarrasses the lovely cast too much. Andrew and Irina, we laugh *with* you when you trip and fall! And of course it's a "hahaha...awww" sort of a laugh. Watch to the end for an extra scene starring Ben Guaraldi filmed purposefully for the outtakes.
Cast & Crew: Amanda Laws, Andrew Lindsay, Andrew Sewell, Ben Guaraldi, Ben Kram, Giocchina Viaggio, Heidi Fjeldheim, Irina Peligrad, Jeff Mission, Jeremy Smith, Joanne Sewell, Joed Polly, Leslie Diamond, Pat Nichols, Tim Brenner, and Zev Fisher. Plus additional cast.
Special Encounters
Team Obnots celebrated it's fifth 48 Hour Film Project with the biggest team yet, and made the spy film, Special Encounters. We had to use a receipt as a prop, the line of dialogue "This could get complicated", and the character 'Reginald or Regina H. Higginbotham'. The movie is about Roger Connery, a spy, searching for love. There's also an assassin after him! Oh no! We turned the movie in on time again, so that is now three in a row, three out of five (or 60%, a D minus!) This is version 1. Stay tuned for version 2 and bloopers/outtakes in a month or so.
Cast & Crew: Alli Poirot, Andrew Sewell, Ben Kram, Benjamin "Shwilly B" Garton, Chris Williams, Chyle Crossley, Eve Pogoda, Heidi Fjeldheim, Irina Peligrad, Jeff Mission, Joed Polly, Kyle Fiske, Leslie Diamond, Nick Colangelo, Rod Webber, Tiffany LaRoche, and Tim Brenner.
