KEEPER OF THE LOST - Flyin' Monkey Films & MattSpat Films

thanks marlon. you're not entering this time around? no action packed extravaganza?
Yessir!! I hope so. I hope to finish up this weekend, but didn't want to start a thread until I knew I was going to be finished. Determined not to rush on this one. Want it to be perfection when it's finished, instead of continuing to edit and re-edit weeks and/or months after the fest.
 
Can't believe I've overlooked this thread for so long,

2 Entries from you? You're a madman! haha, looking forward to it though.

yes. I am now certifiably insane after 2 weeks of editing audio. what the hell was I THINKING??????????? argh!

sounds good now though... sanity returning eventually...
 
Soundmix is complete thanks to Damian Sanchez. He did the final touches and did a much smoother and more subtle mix than I accomplished. The touch of the composer I guess.

Much thanks to Damian, and now: time to do the final upload.
 
Lovley plot Rodney.

For a moment I thought he locks her in his garage of lost stuff.

Some lip sync and focus issues aside, great cinematograpy and acting.
One of my favourites so far.

I'm really starting to dig your stuff Puck. You're like a modern day Sergio Leone (with his really strange clean dubs). I loved the casting, the shots, the story... damn... I think this is my favorite so far.

Just... a little criticism. Add more nat sound please? The uber clean voices kinda creep me out for some reason... maybe it's Iono... I don't know what good sound is anymore...
 
Honestly, this one doesn't do much for me... I mean the story is ok, not so touching but maybe it was just me... Jessica is so awesome... she should be in your every movie from now on... I mean it!!!
I also have problems with ADR ... and also yeah like lordambrai said, the lack of natural sound really feels ..well... unnatural...
Great effort though... I think you did a wonderful job as a whole!!! I definitely want to watch your movies in the long run!!!
 
I had a couple issues with this one - primarily being sound as others have said. I happened to like the lead actor better than Jessica in this one, because I thought her role felt a little hollow. I liked your shots for the most part - some were too soft for my liking and your use of multiple locations.

The story ended a bit abruptly and its hard to accept that it was that easy...

I thought the missing signs were initially to make you think he was bad in some way, but if this "keeper of the lost"'s intent is to reconnect lost things with their owners, why did he not just call the number on the sign? I understand that smell and sight are very important to remembering from short term amnesia...but THAT quick?

Just my thoughts on this one,

You kinda answered yourself on this one Kegan. And there's a difference in returning things and letting them be found or in some cases, pointing them in the right direction. All comes down to interpretation I think.
 
I really liked this one. The male lead was pretty good and I liked how everything was wrapped up in the end. Having her find it for herself was very well done. Loved some of the shots as well, nice work. The colour was also very good, nice look.

The Director played the thug quite convincingly. :)

I won't touch on the other stuff that's been mentioned.

Nice work!

some very nice compositions. though i could see the glass element form the adapter in a couple shots and that irks me. and ADR stuff. but no redundancies. nice work.
 
Good story, man. I liked how you wrapped it up. I could tell the voices were adr and I know that had to be alot of work. I think it'll be just fine though if you just add city background sounds and if you need any, I've got plenty, so let me know. Other than that, everything was very nice. You had some cool shots in there and like I said, it was a very good story. Nice, simple and quiet, but powerful.
 
Great story.

I noticed the 35 adapter glass and the ADR at times, but it didn't really distract from the film which was very good.

I really liked your actors and I thought your shots were great, particularly your compositions.

Lastly, great music - both Damian and Sarah.

Very well done.
