Welcome to Daylight Savings Time - The Movie
(aka Daylight Saving Time - The Movie)*

Latest update - as of 01/20/10 --

After a few comments and a moment of clarity, I decided to completely re-edit the first 2 minutes of the film creating what I think will be a better "hook" then what I had.  Sadly, two actors ended up getting cut out of the opening car sequence but another actor was added back in when I added a bit from the Karaoke scene that I had cut.  (Note:  The Karaoke scene was the most expensive scene in the entire film.)

After that re-edit I submitted the film to both Seattle International Film Festival and Seattle True Independent Film Festival (because it was free!).  Once I don't get accepted to them I will look into independent distribution.

Thank you for your continued support!

Daylight saving time (DST) is the convention of advancing clocks so that afternoons have more daylight and mornings have less. Typically clocks are adjusted forward one hour near the start of spring and are adjusted backward in autumn.

This story is a simple one: A group of people of various types and stripes take a time management course. During the session the instructor encourages the participants to use the extra hour from daylight saving time to change their life.

The story then follows a handful of people as they try and use that hour to make a difference in their world.  Some for the better, some for the worse.

"Daylight Saving Time" was a screenplay I wrote about 4 years ago. I was looking for something interesting in regards to how people manage time and was always fascinated by the fact that we get an extra hour every year and no one does anything with it but get an extra hour sleep. What would happen if people actually attempted to step out of their shell, or do something they've always wanted to do? Would that hour change their life? Would it be the start of something good? Something bad?
