The group was given its genre and three prompts at 7pm on Friday, after which they could get started on writing the script, co-ordinating actors, learning lines, filming and editing. The entire process had to be completed within 48 hours.
Actor and director Mark John said the group’s film centred around a man who took "a line [of drugs] at a party", after which he turned into a dog.
One of the prompts the group’s film needed was a warning, which Mr John said for them was a man telling the protagonist "if you takes that line, you will turn into a dawg".
He then took the line, and he turned into a dog.
He said the process left the group "wiped", but they had done their best.
