Notes: This films screen quality is less than perfect due to lack of a digital camcorder. My method was to use a VHS camcorder to film all sequences, then play it back on a TV while taping the screen in three minute intervals with a video equiped digital still camera. I then edited the sequences on my computer. Due to lack of money, actors, and props the film features no vehicles or other
extremities that would have been seen, but rather focuses only on the character at hand. Also this film was inspired by the true story of 'BAT- 21', by William C. Anderson. - Kyle Erivn
