24/7 - A ZazaCast Film

Thanks Mark... and I'd say the same to you...but I think the 70's party days just caught-up to me (those important brain cells...gone)... cause I can't quite makeout WHAT yours says. LOL!
 
Grabs added...

This has been quite the journey & a lot of fun. If it could go wrong, it did! This is my first short ever, so I can only go up from here (I hope!).
 
As done as it will ever be... time to walk away...
(My head will explode if I have to look at this one more time!)

Best of luck to all...can't wait to see some REAL filmmaker's work!
Cheers,
-Zaza
 
Thanks Jack... for all your help & support.


Jack Daniel Stanley Rocks!

Hello ZazaCast,

you must be really crazy to make a film alone. After my first film experience with this TimeFest competition, I understood above all: more time and more crew you have, better it is!

Best wishes and lots of luck.

Thanks Dustin...but the real thrill is just getting it done, in & approved! Now I can't wait to watch all these great films...can you smell the popcorn?

Nice short.

I'm not sure I understand exactly what you were trying to say but I still enjoyed guessing what was going to happen next.

I thought the introduction was a little bit long for such a short time limit. Acting also felt a lot like they were just reading the script. I could see this being a good script but the acting stopped me from believing everything that was happening though.

Great work though. Congrats on getting a finished film. Can't wait to see your next one.
 
Zaza,

I liked the pacing. Felt like a music video. And music is the thing you do.

I liked the contrast with the fast paced music and searching and the guy walking in the woods. I also liked the appearance of the weed at a minute and change in. Haha.

The reading of the lines sounded like a...book on tape. Which is kinda relaxing. I liked the butterfly effect deal going on. It was quite exquisite the tree deal.

The lines did feel a little forced. It had an interesting feel to it for sure. I did like the opening camera move and the second take of it at 4 minutes and change.

Overall I enjoyed it. It was a good watch. Looking forward to your next piece. :)

Oh, I liked how the walking seemed to match the music at 4:late.
 
Acting, as previously mentioned, was a little weak. Interesting concept though which held my attention and it also had a very good use of music. A variety of cool shots throughout on top of that.

BTW - That Sony LCD remote on the table = awesome (I own the same one).
 
This is great! You guys are WAY too kind (I know this movie sucks)..and I sincerely thank you for all of you comments & feedback. I'm hoping to use this information to make a much better film for the next fest.

Thanks to all!
 
Good entry with solid concept (the science and theory behind it). Over all I enjoyed it, especially the twist at the end and the feeling of inevitability that led to it.

Acting was the weak point in this and could have probably done with some more blocking and a good choice of angles and actions to suit the scene. The lines did feel a little forced and it would take an excellent actor to spout the theories in a convincing way, so that aspect disappointed.

Your introduction was a little too long, especially since you seemed to have repeated the footage. If you had just gone straight into the story and gone to the time you had insteadof trying to get a 6 minute entry, it would have served your story-telling a lot stronger.

I liked some of the interesting things you did visually with the strange camera moves but have to wonder if you accomplished some of that in post. They did lend rather well to the story the odd movements.

Good entry and I hope to see more of your work soon.
 
I'm not going to regurgitate my points, they've been said above...(long intro, actors)

but the music was pretty good!

Good short. The old man sort of beat me over the head a few too many times that the trees need to be taken care of, a little subtlety goes a long way.
