No matter how humble our station in life, all of us aspire to a few basic things. The folks at Story Cake understood this when they made their audience pleaser, Roll Bottle Roll. Their entry in the 2011 San Jose 48 Hour Film Project won our hearts as it led us through the adventures of […]

Everybody’s a Critic
There are few things more frightening to an indie filmmaker than a cynical critic. But what scares a critic? This 48 Hour Film Project entry from Token Media in Minneapolis explores the question. We invite you to enjoy The Grave Review This film won Best Film for its city (with nearly 100 entries) and was selected […]
Showdown San Francisco Style
When teams compete in the 48 Hour Film Project, they begin their competition weekend by drawing a genre randomly from a hat. (It’s happening in SF tonight at 715 Harrison St, 6:30pm). One of the most feared genres across all cities and throughout the years has been Musical or Western. Teams that draw this may […]
Boys of Summer
One of our finest traditions here at See It Online is to bring you irresistible and well made web comedy. Today to commemorate Baseball’s 2012 Opening Day, we share this gem from UCBComedy. We were always pretty sure it goes something like this at First Base.

When you look in the coolerator and see that you’re out of quinoa and mango salsa — there’s only one thing to do. Get yourself to the Whole Foods parking lot! There’s nothing we can add to this. Genius sometimes shows up equipped with its own shopping bags.
A Fastener’s Christmas
In the spirit of the season, we thought that this future classic would be a good pick. (it’s a little over 7 minutes but worth every drop!) The rumor is untrue that the text of this brilliant little comedy made us swear off ever writing again. We thought about it though.
Let There Be Illumination
Long time readers here may have been introduced to Mr. Deity in the past. And if not, here’s a wonderful introduction to this long-running series. It also explains a lot of things I wondered about. It’s always nice to learn how things really happened.
Top Beer! Really?
Our friends at Top Beer TV released this little gem earlier this week. Would you think to make whiskey from a pretty decent beer (Racer 5 IPA)? Only the finest minds would dream of trying this out. You decide whether it’s a successful experiment. In case you don’t recognize his voice, the narrator is Erik […]
Go Green, It Works, Maybe
The folks from Viral Media Networks charmed audiences with a short film for the San Francisco 2011 Go Green competition. They had just one weekend to create this (as is tradition for 48 Hour Film Project events) and they were assigned a character, line of dialog and a prop. This story was a finalist for […]
