Love to hear some feedback.
Acting was good, editing was tight, picture looked nice. All around pretty good. The only thing I would say is that the audio could have been more solid when shot (especially the wide shots). But then again, you could always say that was intended :)

Jive,
Thank you for all your criticism, it is of course, much appreciated. I would love to hear you expand more on your sound suggestions. When I play it, the sound is crisp and clear, and all at desired volumes (other than Mr.Cofounder's "Hearty Aortus" in the end, that could've been bumped up in levels a bit) We recorded the sound directly into the camera, two channels for stereo, with a shotgun mic on boom. Are you having problems with your sound?
It's more of a personal preference I suppose, but the wide shots of the "idea guys" (from the POV of the "execs") has noticable echo. This can be interpreted in different ways from the viewer. For instance, the echo does give a sense of space and distance. However, there is noticably less echo in the "execs" audio from the POV of the "idea guys". I think it's perhaps the contrast between the POV shots that emphasizes the echo in the "idea guys" audio.
It's not bad, but it is noticable. All the same, I think the piece is well done tho.
