Hi! This is my first post, so I thought I start it with a bang: this 6 minute film is the best thing I have ever created. Not to say that it's perfect, so that's why I would like to open a discussion on the things you liked and didn't like. How did you feel about the protagonist and antagonist? Did this feeling change over the course of the film

No thoughts or opinions? Damn.

It took me a little while to get into it but by the end I was really hooked. It was very moving and engaging - something I don't often find in short films. So fantastic work building that sort of energy and emotion in six minutes! I sympathised with the lead initially because I related to his distaste of beer at that age, and by the end I almost found myself wishing pain on the antagonists character. The actors did a fantasic job all round, particularly the lead. Nice work!

it was pretyy good
the only thing i didnt think was too great was the editing when he was asking the roomate to chug it. the cuts to the kids on the couch were too long and started too early so they were just kinda chilling there, like they were waiting to "go" on action or something.

i loved the zoom in to his body, what was that? projection on a still?

The chugging scene is probably one of my biggest regrets, I think the whole scene is sloppy. We shot this in two (long) days and we shot that scene at the very end of the night so out of tiredness, we wrapped up quick regardless if the shot was good or not. If I could go back in time, I'd kick myself.

That end shot was a dolly brought out and then back in as everyone froze.
