Chasing Kangaroos - NEW ENTRY

probably the best direction/acting of the whole fest.

Cheers Shawn. That really means a lot. We have done a small update to clarify things a touch at the outset.

So glad you liked the soundtrack, when I initially gave Herman the brief, I was concerned a touch - of course not with Hermans skill but the approach I wanted to try. But as you say Herman knocked it out of the park.
 
You definitely cast a pair of very talented young actors to direct. They are convincing on the most part. I didn't buy the crying, yet it wasn't so bad it distracted me from the story. Its a very touching story that works from beginning to end. Take a pat on the back for your fine work.
 
And the music :), Herman, you knock it out of the park my friend. Chantelle and I were watching it together and she was like 'you have to mention how great the score is!' then your credit popped onscreen and she goes 'oh, no wonder I loved it' :)

Haha :D Thanks Shawn!
 
Much congrats Noel! It was great to meet you and hang out. Good job on the film man, I look forward to wat you bring us in the future. :)
 
Noel, congratulations on your placement. Are you glad you made the trip to see it on the big screen and be there when it won 2nd place?

This was a wonderful heartwarming film!
 
Noel! Congratulations! Your film played AMAZING on the big screen... much much better than on the small screen, and the line recording at the beginning made a HUGE difference. I LOVED it, and it gave me not only chills but a smile on my face! Great work! This was also one of Chentelle's favorites of the night!
 
Well done Noel, I had hoped this film would do well, and so it has! But you just know if the kids got problems putting coins into a slot machine that sex ed at highschools going to be way tougher! If only Matt had finished his F*ck me First Film!

Seriously mon amie - congratulations - utterly well deserved :)
 
Thanks everyone, really do appreciate all the comments received and the kind words. Havent had much chance to get on the net so just a quick note, getting ready for that long flight home.

Has been an awesome weekend. Lots of fun with everyone. And thats the reason I took this trip. Really loved the nature of the fest, was more like a mutual camaraderie among the competitors and that was fantastic.
 
Congratulations Noel, for a well deserved second place. I said it in my original review that I hoped it would do well and it has. This has one of the strongest scripts, direction and acting in the whole Fest, and for that I salute you. I look forward to your next short.
 
Hey I just wanted to say congrats, your entry was great I enjoyed it a lot.
Great stuff!
 
Hey all, thanks again so much. Just getting it ready for the local circuit at the moment.
 
We shall see :p Of course the first hurdle is just getting it looked at - coming in Silver sure wont hurt my chances though.
