why is the woman walking so weird? it feels very awkward to watch it, you might just want to have her walk slowly instead, unless you are trying to send a message or she is supposed to walk like that to express something

EXCELLENT point. We used a skateboard as a dolly and I wasn't quite good at it so we had to ask her to walk slow.. i had no idea it was so robotic looking until I saw the footage - I think i'll reshoot that cause it looks very awkward - great eye!

Remember Family Guy and the news reporter Diane Simmons? Reminds me of her independent film... :laugh:

I like it FB. Kinda freaky...in a good way.

There seemed to be a little camerea shakiness in a few scenes, but not too bad.

Her walk looked great going down the hallway, but got kinda stallish as she came near to the door at the end. And of course you know the skateboard is making a little cameo ;-)

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

LOL............

not to hate (again) but... horribly pretentious


the music was terrible and only added to that feeling, the black and white (which you shouldnt have used) pushed it over the edge into the "lol" category of student films.

i laughed out loud at the inserts of water dripping out of the faucet, the clock and the person under the desk in the fetal position....


it looked like you had a hair in the gate on the long tracking dolly on the girl's feet. whats funnier is i know you are using a video camera, so its crap on the lens? or something else?


the movie is 1000% too long, the shots just run on and the music just extends them painfully.

the ending....sucked. sorry i couldnt put it more eloquently.


it seems like this film was trying so hard to be artsy, deep and emotional. yet in all of the 5 and a half minutes i felt so singular, guiding direction or voice...just...lifeless...and pretentious.

again, the music was really, really bad.



sorry, i dont mean to be just negative or anything but, hey...what can i say. props to you for making films and trying.


ok after i complete my next 3 projects (within ther next 3 months or so) i promise i will post some of my shorts for you guys. im sure they will be just as dissed :)
