Nice-looking shots. The last shotâ€ using the flash and the falling round are great for telling the story, but without a gunshot audio effect, it's not immediately apparent what's happened. I always think that audio has more power than visuals in convincing the audience.
Thank you for the review. We appreciate your comment about the power of audio and will keep it in mind for the future. We did try out some gunshot sounds, but couldn't maintain the feel that we established in the earlier shots. Perhaps some more experimenting would have resulted in the sound effect staying in the film.

The shots on this were really nice. All the glowing bullets and stuff like that, shiny and etc. Pretty effed up though, and only has something to do with the holidays because you cheated and put an intro card on the video! Should be able to tell your whole story in those three shots!
Thank you for your review. We were really focusing on camera work and lighting with this movie and we're glad so many people are noticing. We will keep in mind your comment about the intro card for future Fights.

Intense. The shots and lighting looked good. Not really Christmas themed as mentioned. And I agree a gunshot would have really helped. Maybe cut the music when the shot goes off. Keep on filming!
Thank you for your review. We found ourselves committed to the idea of the film by the time we remembered that it was supposed to have a holiday theme. We are really trying to stick with the stated themes as we plan out our next movies. Looking for that Heavyweight rating!

I liked it without the sound effect of a gunshot. It didn't follow expectations and it worked to give it an "observer" instead of a "participant" feel. I thought you shoulda kept it completely silent when the flash went on instead of something that sounded like a small crank.
Thank you for the review. We also agree with you about the gunshot affect as we had considered putting it in, but found it to be distracting with our otherwise quiet soundscape. We had also noticed the "small crank" but forgot about it when it came time to edit - there's always more to learn.

nice just a great short film would make a great trailer for a longer film but over all great
Thank you for the review. We were planning on an "Extended Version" to be released to YouTube sometime in the future. We'll see if these awesome upcoming fights give us anytime to do it.
