Short Film, Crime - A cop and a prostitute plan to rob her coke dealing pimp, and run away together.

A no-budget short film produced and made in Austin, Texas by Brandon Stephens starring Angela Harger, Manny Rey and Ed Hattaway.

I wanted to experiment with lighting and in particular, using only 3 colors of light for the film.
Filmed on a Canon 7D.

Great work with the lighting! I think you could get a little more imaginative with the angles but that's a minor gripe.

Hey Jay,
Thanks for the feedback on the angles. I agree with you, especially during the 3rd scene, I definitely could have done some variation. Thanks for watching.
