I like the shot at 0:16! Good shakey cam effect. Works well. The visual of him with the tape on his mouth is good. Always a good idea to have a solid visual like that. Oh man, glad this guy didn't fall while you were shooting, hah. Don't want to get sued!

I like that you redubbed the audio on the fence. Your speaking audio also sounds quite good! Music at 2:02 is too loud in the mix. Framing at 3:12 is a little odd. Seems like if it was actually wide screen it'd work better. Both people are being cut off at the edges.

This is good! I like seeing you work within a shorter format. I'm sure there's some deeper meaning here that I'm just too jetlagged to see. Good shots in this, audio wasn't too echoy or weird. Black and white had an appeal to it. Music fit well. The mouth-tape thing was played off well. Yeah, I dig it! You'll have to tell me the deeper meaning here. Guessing it has somethign to do with breaking from patterns, or the dangers of being silent when people are being manipulated?

I give this film a B+ rating.

A tale of lost hopes and broken dreams. Art films always run the risk of not being understood but you're brave to try it. Some nice angles in your shots.

Yea to be honest i didnt really get it, but somehow i really did enjoy it. Well done.

Hello!

I thought this short looked really good. The shots were pretty good aside for a few and it felt very stylized which I enjoyed. I get the idea of the short, but the plot was not portrayed well. Still liked it.

obviously trying to set a mood, but so gloomy and boring, hard to get through this one. the guy totally looks like a chick, which makes this even gayer than it already is. can't even really follow what i'm seeing. so emo. this should be a LW in my opinion

I thought this was quite beautiful. I am a big fan of art films so this is definitly good in my books. My only complaint was that the music got very loud a onepoint. Otherwise, iteresting concept, awesome shots and a great use of black and white! Good job and great film!

Plot development is REALLY HARD. It's what most of MY videos lack, so I'm not gonna rant about how hard this was to follow. I loved every single one of the shots of him climbing up the stairs. There were lots of good shots in this. Definitely not my favorite though.

This had such great potential. Very very well shot and love the black and white for this one. It really had me hanging on to find out why the character jumped, but it led up and led up, then I still didn't understand why... Great film work though, just needs to be a little easier to follow... (could be just me)

I wish I could give a helpful review for this one. But i'm one of the slow ones, because I dunno what this was about at all. It was just to boring and that music that comes in is way to loud. Next time maybe a story?

This film confused me. I read the Info but i could not see any prominant resemblances or metaphors to cencorship rebellion and submission.
Black and white really works for this film. I really like the shot at 00:23 its different and gets the message of his slow climb across. The shots of him when he reaches the top could have bee shot closer or on the ground to make it feel he is higher than he is therefore bringing a sense of danger and the feeling of is he going to jump!!!! HOLY ****! so yer.
At the scene change i got really confused, i dont know if this is a flashback to previous events making him want to jump. If so you could have added parts of the flash back needed in between the build up to the Jump.
at 1:19 i felt the actor should have seemed more confused and scared at where he has found himself, or maybe that his home!
Dialog wasnt bad and you had some great shots 1:50 for example.
had potential but i felt it was too confusing to understand. But nail that plot and your next film is bound to be awsome!

Sorry, but I don't understand. The locations confused me and I couldn't make logical sense of most of it. I liked the camera work and the choice of using gray scale for this film though.

Confused by what is happening and how the tape fits into it. I like the score and black/white. Interesting shots you got as well.
