The Last Fisherman

The composition and lighting looks really nice in the grabs.

What's with the blocking? Are they blown up from the fest version vs. the master? Otherwise very nice.

Welcome

I really enjoyed this film. I think you did a great job with that story (which I love). I even like the new ending.

Your compositions and the look of the film are excellent. However, your sound is a bit uneven and it sounds like you are in desperate need of a windscreen in some shots. The boy has a great look, but a few of his lines feel a little stiff.

Still, I thought this was really good and I wish you the best with it.
 
I really enjoyed this one. Nice work! One of the most memorable scripts i've read over on moviepoet. Glad someone decided to do this one!
 
So I watched this first and love the story. Technically it needed a little help but I thoroughly enjoyed it. I thought the kid said Thad though instead of dad in the store.

Thad

He did say Thad. That was the name of the owner of the store. I had some big issues with sound. One being I couldn't find a real sound person.

I am just wondering what you thought some of the technical issues are? I want to know so not to repeat them the next time.
 
I liked this one, made me a little depressed.

Quick thing, you had a great use of color, really grainy and it worked, but it changes now and again in the film especially towards the end it looses that texture.

There was no grain added with the color. It was the natural grain from the camera as well as in the store it had to be lightened in post. Which brought out more grain.
 
Good effort. I can't say it was one of my favorites and the story seemed really slow to me. Audio & lighting need work. Great job on getting a film together & entered in the fest!
 
Nice work! Framing was great on some shots but then you cut the kids head off quite a bit in others. Overall it looked quite good though.

The kid was good and I thought it flowed pretty well, maybe just tighten it up a bit.

Nice work overall. Keep making movies!

Head Cut Off

Head Cut Off

The choice for cutting off the head was intentional. Myself and the DOP felt that the action was the most important part of those scenes and felt that there was no need to have his head in the shot.
