Time in its essence is nothing more or less than a measurement of things moving in truth(no movement=no time). However i love how this socially awkward character takes things into broader more grandiose perspective. It is strange but true how if eternal life exists there would be no purpose no reason to do anything because you already have all the time you want therefore eliminating the possibility of wanting to do it before you die, as I said before on another video and will say again, Bravo!
WOW- your video is phenomenal you've come a long way since your earlier videos. I am amazed at how intricately detailed your video is. I used to follow your videos about 2 years ago i guess (curv-aceous - i lost the account)
This video took my breath-away, i thought i was the only one that is ticked by time.
i come back and watch this for inspiration every now and again. i must say, this short film is by far one of the best i've seen in my career in video/film making. the technique used in this video are so simple and yet it brings the audience in. i especially love the music. it fits with the video perfectly.
If no one can tell, I found it amusing that youtube made the times into jumptos. Great video btw. Testing testing: 10:0011:34 011:11 100:00 1234:00 04:00 666:01 66666:00 666:00
You know........ I usually HATE when people use film scores in their own films, but damn it...... you pulled it off beautifully..... Clint Mansell's score for The Fountain fit very well into this short.... please keep the films coming.....
When I started watching this I was like wth is this? But after watching the whole thing, OMG. This is brilliant! This is like a genius's work! haha. No but seriously, this is awesome!! I mean, it's just awesome. haha. I know, I'm nuts.
very creative. as one film maker to another, this piece has been one of the best shorts i've seen in a long time.
suggestion: everything was pretty smooth, but i was curious how it would look as follows- at the heart beat, where u cut to a clock for a split second and zooms into ur heart, i think it would've been a nice effect if you didn't use the zoom, but rather cut back to a still shot of ur hand. with every cut-away the shot gets closer. i'm a visual guy, editing is my thing. wonderful job!
I really liked it, I liked your narration and how.. natural you made it sound, as if you were telling me, personally, your secrets. I was really intruiged(if thats how you spell it). Well done! x
Absolutely fantastic and mesmorising. Your voice is very soothing and interesting. You have the dot on your clock the wrong way around, unless it was 9 in the evening?
wow...i love ur voice/accent =] and what u say about eternity having no real measure of time is really quite scary. i hope there'll be more vids to come!
Glad that you're back. Then U come back with this great little bit of very personal bit of film making for us all to enjoy. The nature of Time is an interesting topic to focus a film on.
You can act. The protagonist feels like another aspect of yourself yet something entirely different. This is one of the best things I've seen anywhere in a while.
Kind of reminded me of the beginning of American Psych a bit. Not that I am comparing this to the whole movie, of course, just the part when Christian Bale has his voice over. You know what I am talking about. haha.
Narration is superb - utterly fantastic.
Camera work/editing is good.
