The results for the 48 Hour Film Project Boston Go Green event are in, and the Malarkey entry How Mobile Apps Saved the World did pretty well, although we didn't get the big prize. The film won "Best Director" and "Best Ensemble Acting", which were both ironic since the directing consisted of one camera shot and most of the actors were non-actors who were interviewed in the Errol Morris style.
Of the 15 Boston entries, ours was named the Runner Up for Best Film which was a heck of a showing for something that was even more of an ad hoc production than is usually the case for a 48 Hour Film Project production. We basically showed up on Saturday with a few pages of notes, a homemade "Interrotron" and the hopes that we could get normal people to make up stuff that we could fit together into a coherent piece. It just goes to show how well the normal people brave enough to go on camera did when asked to riff on stuff, and how good the editing was.
