Great movie, my favorite for 48hfp. One small thing I would've done differently though, I actually would have ended when she says yes.

really nice work though, Im signing up for the competition this year. Lets see

Impressive gentlemen.

[TylerW330]

I would love to see this forward!

[chris2kostya]

At the very end you should have had the couple speak at normal forward speed and have the boy ask her to marry him and have the camera look into her eyes as she started to cry. That would have been awesome!

[tishin93]

This is really amazing. You guys did an awesome job!! :)

[BadgerTsunami]

Wow. Excellent movie. Great job guys.

Yeah, I want to mirror Dan's sentiments exactly. We were all thrilled by this movie and extremely happy to see it acknowledged in such a big way. Great job all around.

@danieldangerously we used zeiss zf primes (21mm, 35mm, 50mm, 100mm). knock your aperture down as low as it can go so you're shooting wide open, if you have to use ND filters outside, do it. you can also knock up your shutter speed a bit to compensate, but not too far, i actually think i overcranked a bit much on a few shots. you can also use ISO settings in the camera. also, in settings, lower your contrast and saturation you'll get an image that's much easier to color grade.

[benjamincrowell]

what he said.

[danieldangerously]

seriously great piece, really happy you guys won tonight. congrats! next year we know do our puppet sex in slow motion reverse.
