With the quality of next gen graphics and the proliferation of CG work in Hollywood, it can be hard to tell where video game concepts begin and cinematography ends in rather elaborate trailers. Such was the case in The Cup of Tears, which was actually a short film conducted by Gary Shore, who worked on it during his free time over six months.
The veteran of commercial directing has seen the rights to The Cup of Tears picked up by Universal and Working Title, who will look to make it into a feature length film. Shore will direct the film, and a writer will be brought on to polish his initial script.
