In 2006, a group of film students took on one of the most ambitious projects Chapman University has ever seen: a feature film. Despite great financial obstacles, inexperience and Chapman labeling the film, “too ambitious,” the team pressed on. Utilizing (then,) budding new digital and online technology, the team documented their entire process.
Too Ambitious - Part 1:Pre-Production focus's on the highlights from July 2006 - Dec 2006, when making Happy Holidays, the feature film went from an idea to reality
Almost two decades later, Happy Holidays alumni have won Oscars, Emmys & Grammys, made multi-million dollar features and run production companies. Now re-cut & digitally remastered, Happy Holidays takes you back in time to a pivotal moment in indie filmmaking and a story that shows we all start somewhere.
