this was hilarious, holy shit hahahaha. so abstract, but it showed such a simple concept. simple is always a lot better in most cases, and it sure showed here! i liked this VFS film a lot!
If this were a music writing course, and the lyrics were terrible, I would have said that something similar: if the lyrics suck, then just write the music. If the dialogue sucks, then just film the action. The person who made this film might learn something from the animation guys.
I'm assuming this script didn't just fall out of the air, which means that someone wrote it, and that the people responsible for making this must have read it and found it acceptable.
even if that is the case, i find this script hilarious, and quality. karl marx in there? polishing russia on the globe? round of duck on the house for everyone? its not as random as you may think.
I take this video (more or less) as a tribute to young aspiring film makers who make random videos up on the spot that dont have to make complete sence to be funny.
Why would that matter; it was never relevant? Besides, it would've been easier to do it with coins and coins of Loonies' anyway than with U.S. Dollars'.

That was a really good short film. The storyline was good, the cinematography, in fact there wasn't one thing that i disliked about that short. Really really good qualit film making

If you can't write dialogue, don't film it. Everything that comes out of the VFS has a decent visual style, but what are the writers smoking?

I like it, love the classic story telling methodology used in this short.
Its been a long time since i've done video work but i must say its inspired me to start thinking about it again.
Well done.
I've just looked at doing a VFS course, hmmmm Canada looks arwsome but finding the time and finances it always difficult.
