Xero Error goes to Cannes
Part3 of 3
A trilogy of blog posts about Team Xpanse’s first experience at the fantastic 63rd Festival De Cannes simply cannot do it justice.

Story by Agent Xero
Team Xpanse would like to thank each and every team member for their part in the making of Levity – Xero Error Minus1. This is the first of  our feature stories about them.  Agent Xero met up with Vonnie Maddox who works full time for Xpanse CGI, and was the Production  Coordinator for Levity – Xero Error Minus1.

During our trip to Cannes, Flip invited Directors whose films were selected to be part of the Court Metrage at the 63rd Festival De Cannes to participate in the Flip-Ala-Cannes Competition. The three of us visiting there decided to participate in the competition and do one short film each.

A recap by Ashraf Ghori
So now we reached the famous French city of Cannes. A city by the sea with winding roads, stepped buildings and magnificent views. As we stepped out of the bus on the 12th of May, our luggage was quite a sight with almost three bags a person. The taxi guys waiting near the bus station had quite an attitude. Finally someone was gracious enough to offer us a taxi ride to the ‘La Bocca’ area to our hotel Villa Maupassant.

Story by Ashraf Ghori – I know it’s a long time coming, but here we go.
A few months ago, working around the clock, Team Xpanse was buried under the seemingly impossible task of finishing our film ‘Levity Xero-Error Minus1′ in time to submit for the Gulf Film Festival in April. At the time, screening our film at The Cannes Film Festival was the last possible thing on our minds.

This month Digital Studio Magazine features an in-depth article on UAE’s first Scifi Film ‘Levity – Xero Error Minus1′. Â Many Thanks to Vijaya Cherian and the Digital Studio team for this amazing story.
