[kimeekreme]

@KMPer02 our professor in Humanities showed us this one time... from a University in Philippines, University of San Carlos Cebu :)

[e12icaphoo]

hahahaha I thought for the end the girl will open up the bag and being with him, but what happened next is the opposite. so cute, simple concept but cool realization. :D

[mrspattinson2008]

really nice idea. but da girls voice is sorta irritatin... no like its nt catchy

[isaacjrood]

Lol at the conspiracy theorist. "Learn the flouride truth!!" no, flouride is only harmful towards small children. Its why you dont eat the toothpaste lmao. They put flouride in tap water, i drink 8 cups a day and im fine..

[55mandreck]

I brush my teeth like a "normal person" , hope you don't use a flouride paste ???

google FLOURIDE TRUTH to learn what ur dentist will not tell u - that it is a deadly poison and is one of the biggest lies ever told !!

[MrButong15]

nice song on the intro,,:)

[jazzyamir]

:)

[jazzyamir]

can anyone please tell me any good movie editor from which i can add sound effects also?

[we274]

This is actually pretty good, I was watching a film about a WRX and I ended up hear haha good job!

[TastyTortilla]

lol im pretty sure theres a good answer for this but why not cut out holes for eyes or mouth?

[Jauckor]

it could be possible if I translate this to Spanish and then I upload it again in my account?

I know American people are kinda paranoid with that so Im asking you.

Good job, by the way.

[ntortugo]

I LIKE THE STORY!!!

GREAT JOB!!

IS IT OKAY WITH YOU THAT Im GOING TO REMAKE IT!?? IF ITS STILL OKAY!

[shayne01100]

ang o.a naman :/

[blahfallas]

I loved it. (:

[AntTheGirl]

Wow mahhnnn.. that was the sweetest thing i have ever seen. You are very very creative..

[dannyrighi]

i think the title is because she choose to have a paper bag on her face than get a plastic surgery!!!

[ArtsBarAndGrill]

Great cinematography, girl had an awesome body (I'm a creepy old man), but the basic premise...

[beverleefab]

The guy is really ugly!

[strangemind14]

@beverleefab thats why in the end he's wearing a paper bag too :)

[ChayanRasta]

Whatever...... 

[Babykay1985]

You should make a youtube series about bag girl. I bet it would be very popular and you could make money off of it. :)

[011001er]

sorry dude but i really did want to poke my eyes out and cut off my ears, im not a fan but im glad people are.

[debutar2009]

the guy is fuckin ugly!

[DeLeonardoDavidinci2]

Great use of the paper bags. I love how she had different expressions with each bag. It was very predictable at the end. Loved your camera shots.

[CJfilmsproduction81]

Very good short movie, it was very creative and it had meaning. The meaning that the movie gave in my opinion is that be yourself because their is someone for everyone. Nice movie. If you can check out my short movie.

[loggin420]

you guys had some beautiful shots. great job

[gemahutama]

originally LOL!!!

[TashaMac89]

very original lol

[daledheyalef]

how come so many god damn student films start with someone getting out of bed and getting ready for the day

so gay

[smileyemily5]

how come she doesnt wear a bag to sleep? like what if a ninja popped in through a hole in the ceiling and saw her rare face deformity?

[lazycheskie]

i'm currently in a 170b class in ucsc. This is really really good! love the tracking shots.

[motafabio]

Seriously i don't see it! Why is this a great short if beats me! I honestly think this is exacly what is wrong with this hooooole film generation! Mundane questions rise up, just the same as it did with aaaaaaaany other girl likes boy and is deformed or fat or not the cool one or whatever. You get my point? I don't wanna be saying your film is shit, i won't go that far, it has fair points, but come one man...do something honest. This is just a copy of any other chich flick. Braindead chick flick

[nuksfilms]

The recording is really clear,, great sound too. awesome short =)

[kiza94bg]

you have acne and shit?

[elyza14]

soo cute! :)

[r2lbd]

This is Great!!! Could i ask what's the song was in the end title?

[pkganth]

super

[trilseka]

This is a completely funny flick. The joke of it all is the chick is able to function with a bag over her head. Though the plot is hallow and the concept is a joke in it self, I think its original though it cud have been done better...i gave it a 5/10 for being fresh & mildly entertaining.

[snappyposer]

Dear KMPer02, great video! Could you spare 15 secs of time to share what song you used at the end of the video? Thank you!

[bmac2399]

UC SANTA CRUZ!!! holla holla good stuff

[MissAtheena]

I was having a bad day and this made me smile. Thank you! I loved it.

[ducavzla]

is beautiful and everything but i don't understand the titul.. on what moment is paper or plastic? or necesarely no is as the titul ? i mean the movie.. anyway maybe is cuz i'm from venezuela xD anyway is good GZ :D

[KMPer02]

@ducavzla Thank you very much! The title is just a common American saying I got from the grocery store. After purchasing groceries a clerk will often ask "Paper or plastic?" I thought it was a catchy title that with the playful nature of the film.

[ducavzla]

@KMPer02 :O ty very much for to tell me the meaning.. i would like to get ur msn i need to talk with about something :D if u can of course :P take care

[sidecar23]

@ ducavzla @KMPer02 I thought it was entitled "Paper or Plastic" because she has a choice between putting a paper bag over her head or having plastic surgery. Haha. Anyway, cute short film! :)

[marvor89]

@KMPer02  I thought the title was about her choice. She was supposed to have plastic surgey or she could wearing paper bag on her head :P

[ConnersTutorials]

@KMPer02 Loved the film! Beautiful cinematography :) I thought the film was titled 'paper or plastic' because in the beginning of the film, the girl says 'instead of getting plastic surgery, i wear a paper bag over my head... " Anyway, brilliant work!

[coolmousee]

@ducavzla "instead of getting plastic surgery... I just wear a bag on my head" thus paper or plastic

[SaoriAmz]

@ducavzla Also the fact that she chose a 'paper' bag over 'plastic' surgery?

Love this, rather cute. The colours and shot are really good, well done :D

[johnt0148]

Not what I expected, which made it very cool.

[chumidesu]

[snappyposer]

Can anyone please let me know what song this is? Thanks!

[Marco20Rider9]

[charmcenteno]

sooooo sweet...

[redmann009]

omg!!! what camera did you use!!! and what film class are you in!!!

[afterskoolspecialz]

I like the mood you set in this film. Its a creative premise but you know how schools are with their demanding style. I'm currently shooting a short film for a film festival online. Its cool pretty cool. BIGSTAR tv.

[laladoggie]

I thought the girl is just blind. She's assuming that she's ugly, but she's actually not.

[DominicanGirl0818]

aww that was so frigging cute hehe. really liked it.

[mitochondrion80]

the song?? love it! xD

[annekamajhi]

[jamcraise]

[top5ranger]

HAAHAHHAAA loved it! good job with the editing and keeping it simple.

[cheja216]

hey, what's the song in the beginning?

[Tabroxfcc]

I can easily see this being turned into a hollywood rom com

[MrSmiley5678]

not bad

[Jamiekimme0643]

all the expressions in the paper bag was really funny! original idea! good job

[waynestatic03]

hmm.. very predictable

[one66bigfoot]

Looked great. Nice work with the hvx

[TheProjectMJ]

Eh, it was OK

[TheProjectMJ]

why doesn't she wear a veil?

[nocz1]

Is that an Acura Legend you drove?

[AlexNeuhauser]

[cutiepie4lifejustkno]

Dang they had a great start but a horrible finish. i as thinking the boy in the library was gona say i love u and see her face and still love her Thats true love

[Asmisim]

nice work of art boi.

[kidbis]

the idea was good but the ending was too sappy!

[Oreoreogirl]

Stupid

[honeybfly89]

that was very skillful,and cute lol

loved it! haha:)

God bless!

[matthewpalance]

beautiful camera movement, beautiful film!

[snittdansen]

That was really cute. I enjoyed it.

[menonthemovemovie]

This was a great student film. A simple and charming short well told. All the elements fit well and worked.

[shuttermind]

really good short film, very creative but i agree with

MichaelFrymus but other than that it was great

[ariljames]

yeah.. i like the angle.. the camera shot.. its brilliant... n nice editing ....

[coloredstrings]

nice and interesting movie. :D great camera techniques!

[eeyor450D]

haha!!! brilliant!!!! made me lol on many an occasion!

[MichaelFrymus]

I really liked some of your camera techniques. The beginning was nice.

But, I just didn't like the story line, after the paper bag part, it.... yeah.... I'm not being mean or anything, just saying my opinion.

If the story was about something else rather than the girl wearing a paper bag, I think it would have turned out to be really interested. Because you had some great camera views and techniques which gave it quality and a sense or professionalism/experience, but the story was the down side.

[MichaelFrymus]

it was although good, if it was just slightly different with the bag, it would be amazing.

anyways. good job!

Id give it 5/5 for the look.

but 3/5 for, you know.

well done.

[KMPer02]

To be completely honest, I made this film as a joke. Because I did this for a class, I had certain limitations. My first film treatment got shot down, so I figured I'd do some ridiculous story about a girl who wears a bag on her head. Don't get me wrong, I tried to make the film beautiful, but in terms of story, I'm with you guys. Overall, it was a fun little project and the teacher really liked it.

[MichaelFrymus]

Yeah, I understand. Im working on some films in school and coming up with ideas is nearly impossible as there are SO many things that I cannot do.

and what was the song called in the beginning?

[hero22zippy]

WHY YOU FIRST ONE GOT SHOT DOWN

[r2lbd]

@KMPer02, Can you tell me what song that you used end of the film, please... thanks.

[aboghareba]

who is singing that song please what is the name please

[refaat1985]

That was really great!

[DancingAngelicR]

Great job and I love the colorful flower fields too and the adorable changes in mood with the smiley and frowning faces. So cute.

[nawbruv]

awesome dude, nice ass colours, saw this on skate perception

[RevolutionSkateMedia]

[KMPer02]
