2 shorts for sale
Director Jay Holben recently had two of his short films come out on DVD for sale exclusively through Amazon.com.
Descent is a 15 minute thriller about a woman who gets trapped in an elevator with the man who she saw kill her best friend. The cinematography is great, the music keeps you on your toes, and the ending… OH MAN! The DVD’s special bonus featurs include: the original trailer, a deleted scene, and commentary from both director Jay Holben and cinematographer/co-writer/producer Christopher Probst.

The Night Before is a drama of three boys in the hospital before surgery, and the fears they go through while in wait. Another great job with cinematography and story. And the child actors are very good. The film’s run-time is about 19 minutes, and has bonus features including a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the film, and commentaries from both the director (geared toward other filmmakers) and writer James Cole.

Both short film DVDs are $12, and frankly, the commentary alone should make it worth every penny (and then some) to any aspiring filmmaker or anyone interested in how films are made.
And, if you just want to be entertained, you’ll love both these short films.
