    Back in 2010 for a short film I and three friends of mine made a short film called "How to Use a Universal Remote" as a school assignment. Our teachers liked our short enough they sent it to the festival and we surprisingly were nominated and won the Best Short Film Award at the Cider Rapids Independent Film Festival.
