Each time I watch this video brings tears. Honestly one of my favorites on YouTube. You guys did a really food job with this one. I will continue to watch it time and time again. Thank you for this beautiful piece :)
This is exactly the type of movie I'm looking for! I wanna see a 1st person movie! Why there are no long and good quality movies from the eyes of person? This video is great. I really liked the war part. I know that if I want to see war in 1st person I should buy a game, but I want to see it with real actors, not models from polygons. This or the short movie "Find Makarov" were great, I want to see more of it, please.
At least he is lucy, died with all the beautiful memeories except wife's leaving. I lost you because I do not care, but I know in the moment of dying, you are the only one in my eyes!
Wow, this was amazing. I got sent here by a commenter in a Gizmodo article and i'm incredibly happy I was. This was touching, poignant, and better than most big budget movies/shorts I've seen.
@Cektex: LOL man! ur comment broke discussion's flow! ;p
Anyway great work (the short tho not u man -lol-), my only criticism would be "falling down" shot...in continuity terms I am not sure old-william would have ended up ON the actual carpet, let alone the bucket trown that far from him as well as the gem...but that's just if one wants to be picky otherwise the short is indeed a masterpiece (music being the real conveyer of emotions there), peace
This made me tear up as well. I often think of the circle of life, which saddens me. God - willing, I'm about halfway through this thing called life. This made me think of my young son, who is sleeping as I type this, and hoping his life will be filled with great things. Great job. It is sad that things must end and friends must leave. Too much hate in the world with so very little time to enjoy life. Every second counts...you may not be here tomorrow.
@alexzracer2008 You must be young. Not all lives end up being awesome. After war he started drinking and his wife left him. Ending up as a janitor makes sense.
I do not have words... I just have tears.. I mean... I salute you all who were in any way involved in the making of this wonderful story. I think it is just amazing!
I'm crying right now. I don't know what's more sad: this video or future generations' flashbacks – no more living in the fields, hanging out clothes to dry, or enjoying nature – just staring at a computer screen all day.
idk if this short film was inspired by gaspar noe's ENTER THE VOID or vice versa.. (1st person view concept and the reverse vision of someone who's dying. Thanks for showing the making of this short film. It gave me the idea how gaspar noe shot his film (enter the void). Maybe he also use video dlsr in his film.
@verableu2 It's not the software haha. It's just the great picture quality and how it was shot. You could do this editing with almost any editing software =) Really cool video.
This video has so much emotion in it and it really got to me. It made me really sad actually and made me think of when my time will come when i'll die. i watched it about a dozen times just replaying it over and over. Truly a work of art....
This is so great!
