I spent the last two days trying to figure out different ways of editing in premiere pro using footage of Oisin Van Gelderen that i shot during 2008. I didn't set out to make a short film but two days later, here it is! Check out the matrix style flaka shot inspired by the new simmerstyle video! http://www.vimeo.com/2691589
