[broskeeper]

Hi guys, in this short comedy a guy bets his girl he can get any girl he wants. She takes him up on it.

I'm told that carrying a Bible around is one of the hottest tickets to get girls... and thumping it, at the right time, at the right places, is almost the E-ticket of dating... or is that selecting watermelons?

Anyway, on the technical aspects...

I think I commented on the Christian Dating short, that the exposure levels were pretty high, and gave a washed out look. On some occasions it looked like there was someone doing a bit of bounce... one of the encounters with the black guy, seemed to have definite indications of bounce, and unfortunately 'obviously so' (01:56).

Framing... some of the shots had people ether cut off or nearly so (02:12).

The toss of the guy, didn't seem to match the orientation of the beginning. We see the big guy grab the through of the shorter guy, give a 'heft upwards'(02:03), then we see a frontal of the guy in flight, rather than back or side.

There's a weird shaking going on even when the camera is obviously mounted on the tripod.
