that was incredible. Very good shots, staged so well along the Z Axis, good audio, good two shots consistently, and really pulled you in. Above par acting, my only gripe would be some of the cuts seemed a bit out of place, when you'd swap back out to the WS during a lot of tension. But overall incredible, I sent this link out in a group email to my crew!
 
Thank you. Yeah, I would love to have had a bit more coverage - but this was done in like 7-8 hours. A couple of other angles would have made the cuts a little smoother. Appreciate your comments.
 
Very, very powerful. And it's really just one long dialogue - incredible how well it works. And, as always, Philip Bloom's cinematography is great.

Great cinematography.

Great acting.

Great Sound.

Good job on this piece man, you deserve a pat on the back!

We shot with radio-mics throughout and boom where possible. In addition another boom captured atmos. The sound recordist also went down on another day to record further atmos.

This is a fairly basic/brutal mix - the actual mix is in surround and works very well.
 
Very well done a great script and good acting. Only one shot i would have held longer at 5:52 and one shot i would have cleaned up was at 8:51, it was a little jaring, but other than the small things this was great.
