"Eating In" - 60 Second Short

[CodyBrown]

Hello everyone,

I made this movie for one of those 60 second film contests (RES magazine was hosting it). It was a fun little project, I would love to know what you think.

I was getting a little worried like wheres this film going? But that really made me laugh. Nice ending.

Very nice use of editing. I like the split screen as a way of getting a lot of information across to the audience in less time. And in a 60 second short, that is of the essence.

Very well done, I think.

funny stuff man! I didnt like the text though and the flashlight on the girls face was distracting.

[SIZE=+0]Nice work. Nice job in figuring out something within the 1 min time frame. The only thing I can say is that the text could stand to be a touch darker. Maybe it is just me, but pure white text has always looked a touch unprofessional. I think it just reminds me of home movies where people add "Summer Vacation, 1998" sort of thing. Anyway, it was great. Split screen worked well. [/SIZE]

I can;t say too much about the short; not my style. Too cute and gimmicky for me

I may sound like I am super inexperienced by asking this, but what is ghosty? Does it haves something to do with the encoding of the footage? It sounds like it has to do with motion.

Also, I agree, it is too cutish and relies on a gimmick but these are the type of films that tend to come out of these contests, especially when the theme is love! ha.

thanks for watching if anyone has any other comments I would like to hear them.
