An ordinary man named Lewis is having a rather terrible week, so he decides to take a vacation in the Rocky Mountains to relax. Little does he know that he will be in for the exact opposite: his group is attacked by a ferocious grizzly bear, and Lewis appears to be bitten.

The reason for the unsatisfactory VFX is due to Particle Illusion. I had thought that if you export something for PI SE that the quality would be bad, (Squadron 13 III) but I didn’t know that you could export as a QuickTime file, but know I know.

This film was made over a time span of 8 months, so you can see an obvious difference in the quality of scene one and the final Paris scene.

Music by:
Harry Gregson-Williams
Hans Zimmer
Steve Jablonsky

Cast
Everyone portrayed by me, but I needed to get some voice actors/actresses, so the speech isn’t too good.

Anyways, Enjoy the film!
