TowerFan - First Fest - AdFest 2007

Good job. Really felt like one of those daytime television ads. Nice FX and played well. When we move to the exterior scene at the end, it kind of took me out a bit. Maybe it was the girl, maybe the photography, I don't know. Can't put my finger on it.

Good job. Thanks for sharing.
 
I pretty much agree with John (Cinealma).
The shadows were to harsh in the outside bits at the end and couldn't see all that I wanted to.
Lots of fun and well done. And the effects are so well done you almost don't notice them.
 
The Dr.Nervis bit and following shot stood out (liked it). The final girl-guy smiling bit was a good payoff.

The effects were well done and did not draw attention to themselves for the most part. The closeup of the remote flying off the couch I didnt like. Just the timing off it looked cheesy, but suitable for the style of the ad. The broom shot was right there as well as the rest.

It put a smile on my face and thanks for submitting. I enjoyed it.
 
This was a fun one to watch. Solid all around. To the point. Looked good, funny. Felt like a commercial.

I would totally buy it (not the product. The commercial:) ) if I saw it on t.v. late at night, or in the middle of the afternoon.

It was fun watching this one. Thanks.

Don't you want to pick up the remote ...
WITH YOUR MIND!!!!!!

:grin:

EDIT: Actually this would be the worst thing for me. It is the only think I could possibly do to get fatter:)
 
@ CarlSpackler - Thanks. CANNONBALL!! :beer:

@ Raptor365 - Thanks for the compliments and crits. If this was even 1/10 as good as your Spitfire then I'm satisfied with the result. I agree about the remote flying shot. It is a bit odd.

@ JDS - I saw your comment in the other thread. I didn't think we'd make anyone's top anything list. After clicking on your signature link we're truly complimented. Thank you sir.

Thanks for the other comments and crits all. Our thoughts from the beginning was the cheesey yet not, daytime/late night commercial. Fortunately that's where our skill level is at this point so it worked out! Obviously we wanted to do a comedy as well.

Cinematically we're happy with it for our experience/resource level. I'd really like for someone to expand on Barry's comment about the color grading though. Was this a "they should have used their vectorscopes", or a "the sets and wardrobe need more color" comment.

We should have done better with the outside shot too. We only used good ol' El Sol but probably should have added more light. Maybe cinealma felt taken out by the one hand-held shot thrown in there? Our tripod wasn't up to the task for that shot that day.
 
I really enjoyed this one. :)

But also, I just took a look at your McLaren F1 on your photobucket site... Man, that thing is SWEET!!! NICE job on the car. :beer:
 
@tommyinla - Thanks man! That was definately a labor of love.
