This film is about the ideal of fantasies and how it relates to our existence. The high definition is very system intense and often doesn’t run on most computers, so I have encoded low quality High Definition. In 720p to 360p

encoded 3 versions each for Mac and PC.

It is also based on a few events in my life. Shot on Sony Z1U

I am working on becoming a better Director of Photography and filmmaker so any types of comments are welcome
 
nice looking footage.

i guess some of the handheld shots could have been less shaky. especially the one where the camera went all sideways by the hammock. that made me really dizzy.

it had a pretty cool look though with a nice variety of shots and angles.

skin tones on some shots were a little orange. i think less saturation and more contrast would help.

when the girl is narrating, it sounds like she is in a small room. maybe that's the sound you were going for, i dunno?

great credits song, one of my favorite death cab songs. and good editing.

one more thing - could you explain the story? cause i didn't totally understand it.

keep rockin it, i'll definitely check out your stuff in the future.
 
The shots seem a little voyeur for the video, and I would probably replace the handheld shots with a dolly shot. Other than that looks cool, good idea.
 
I was kinda thinking the same as Omega:

If I were to get fussy from a viewers stand point (because I'm not much of a film-maker), would be some of the other dialogue audio as well, there's a scene on the bridge, where the guy and girl are taking, and his voice is clear, but then (after a rack focus on the flower i think) it cuts to an angle infront of them, and his voice sounds quiter.

I really liked the background music!

and as far as story goes... I thought it was pretty cool how at the end, it seemed as though he had either been repeating the same life and events with a different girlfriend... or perhaps all along he was going out with someone and pretending they were someone else... i dunno... cool whatever it is.
