PROS

I liked it overall. It was shot well. The locations were cool. The limied depth of field shots were classy. You guys did great with such a short amount of time. I liked the dolly moves.

What kind of equipment did you use for the camera moves? How do you like working with the EX1 (work flow and image quality)? What were your camera settings?

CONS

Blood is tough to pull off. It didn't look quite right to me.

As far as the story goes, I didn't get it. What were you guys trying to say? Perhaps I will watch it again to see if I missed something. I alway like when shorts have a conclusion. I don't mind open ended endings as long as I have a few possibilities to chew on. This seemed really open.
