Blank Spaces
Short Film (Full Length) – 2010
This short film presents Dave, a tramper at a South Island high country tarn, with a chance to make his mark on the map. But will the stars (and satellites) align to realise his ingenious idea? Blank Spaces was one of five finalists in 'Your Big Break': a 2010 filmmaking contest run by Tourism New Zealand that gave the finalists a chance to have their script realised with the help of producer Barrie Osborne (The Matrix, The Lord of the Rings). The brief was to "capture the spirit of 100% Pure New Zealand — the youngest country on earth".
It looks great, sounds great, and has a fun premise introduced/explored/executed in an astonishingly short period of time.– Muldoon's Saturday Shorts, 19 Jan 2013, AintItCoolNews.com
