This One Goes to Eleven 协和万源入围第十一届上海学生电影节官方展片
一年一度 “上海学生电影节” 于上周五，3月9日隆重开幕。“8小时微电影挑战” 是其标志性项目。来自上海、南京、北京国际学校电影制作爱好者相约黄兴公园，开启第十一届S2F2电影节。那个周末，也因此诞生了众多高质量学生微电影。
Friday March 9th saw international students from all over Shanghai, as well as Nanjing and Beijing, arrive at Huang Xing Park for the annual Shanghai Student Film Festival 8-hour film challenge. This event kicks off a weekend of activities related to film, which aspiring filmmakers can take part in.
“ 我们有幸结识各种肤色、国籍、文化背景的同龄人，共同挑战8小时微电影。” 来自十二年级的 Louise Lin 同学说道，“基本上，每个小组有5-7名成员。如同专业电影工作组 —— 导演、摄影师、剪辑、声音、编剧和演员。我们花 5 小时来拍摄一部 2 分钟故事片，主题是 “This one goes to Eleven”。虽然有些小组早已提前创作了剧本，但是其他 5 个元素，仍然需要临场准备。5 小时拍摄之后，我们去大舞台进行后期剪辑，也有机会在剧场里交流各小组作品。”
“We met talented students from all around the world here and had a chance to group with them for the challenge,” said G12 Louise Lin. “There were about 5-7 students in a group which fits in to role of Director, Cinematographer, Editor, Sound Designer, Screenwriter and Actors. We had about five hours to film a 2-minute melodrama that was themed to ‘This one goes to Eleven.’ Although some groups have already came up with a script, we still need to reach at least five requirements which are newly given on that day. After 5 hours of shooting, we went to Mei Theater to edit the clips and turn it into a complete short film. After a long period of working, we can finally start to view everyone’s result in the Theater.”
“This one goes to Eleven”
It’s a quote from a movie called “spinal tap”. If something goes to 11 it means it’s just a little bit extra. This year is the 11th annual S2F2. 今年恰逢第十一届S2F2电影节。这句句子出自电影《摇滚万岁》，有 “额外、更多一点” 的涵义。
紧接着，评委老师们留在剧院，深思熟虑评选获奖作品。激动人心的结果将于第二天，周六的影展盛会上揭晓。
The judges stayed in the theater well after students had left, deliberating the winners of the 8HFC. Students had to wait until the Saturday gala to find out the results.
星期六一早，所有电影人齐聚上海温哥华电影学院。等待着大家的是拍摄、声效、电影化妆、3D动画、剧本等方面的小课堂。与此同时，评委组正在准备稍后的颁奖盛典，获奖电影也将在此展映。
Saturday morning brought everyone back together at Shanghai Vancouver Film School. Students spent the day attending workshops in cinematography, sound design, makeup for film, 3D animation, and screenwriting. Teachers spent the day putting finishing touches on the awards presentation. Everyone gathered in the theater for the screenings of the award winning films.
令人骄傲的是，协和万源荣获此次 “8小时微电影” 二等奖；我校 Kenny Zhao、Coco Tao、Andy Gao、Emily Gao 同学的作品《Sandglass》成为此次电影节 Drama 组别的官方展片。
SUIS Wan Yuan came away with 2nd place in the 8HFC and the film ‘Sandglass’ by Kenny Zhao, Coco Tao, Andy Gao and Emily Gao was an Official Selection for the drama category.
来自协和万源美式高中英语文学组的 Janel Sullivan 老师，是本届上海学生电影节的总策划，她说：能看到这么多年轻电影人汇聚一堂，展现对电影的爱好，令人欣慰！此次盛典，还特邀往届获奖者作为颁奖嘉宾，回顾过往，更憧憬新的未来。
Festival Director, Janel Sullivan, was very pleased with the event overall. She said she loves seeing young filmmakers coming together and sharing their passion. One addition to this years festival was short videos from S2F2 alumni to announce award winners. Miss Sullivan thought it was fantastic to show current students where some of their peers have ended up and the opportunities young filmmakers have in the future.
