Ok, I've got an exam tomorrow morning and the film will take 13 mins of my time, therefore I'll watch it later and give feedback.

Dialogue needs work, some scenes need to be expanded, some actors need more direction, so as to give more impact.
It was just there. The ending part wasn't that bad especially between the two guys. The bond of friendship can be seen.

Hey Nwazo good job, nice idea and concept. I'm really impressed. I will like to cooment on a few things
1. SOUND: the dialogue was clear and that means the sound guy this a good job but the buzz tract (background noise) didnt really work. there were moment when their was a camera change of angle and the buzz track either increased or reduced. watch out for that next time. I don't know if it was intentional but through out the party sequence i never heard any buzz track of party music (EVEN WHEN HE WENT INTO THE PARTY HALL). Please check your sound remember SOUND MAKE AND KILL FILM
2. SPECTACLES:(a) Your lighting in the party sequence- it was very dark and dull. was it motivated. were you trying to convey a dull mood. i feel the lighting could be better.
(b) The shot where she stood up to tell him the message- the ACTION AXIS was crossed. but was still cool.
(c) there were some camera shakes and minute tilting
3. OTHERS: I'm not so much into things like dialogue and screenplay. But I thing the dialogue could be better. In the shot where he was telling her about his dead girlfriend. it sounded like a monologue and not a dialogue
ABOVE ALL good job. Thank God there are film makers like you that are not so interested in nollywood overdone topics like "Barren woman leave my son alone, I want to carry my grandchild"
I don't like talking bad about other poeples job but I just have to comment. GREAT EFFORT AND GOOD JOB. HOPE TO SEE BETTER STUFFS FROM YOU

Wow, I just noticed these responses to my post!! Kai, gotta be checking Nairaland more often! Happy New Year Folks, and thanks a lot for everyone's constructive criticism It was our first movie, so I really appreciate the feedback! Awesome observation bishoptboy, I just now noticed the crossing the axis sequence on that rooftop scene. Nice calling out lol, but it was still okay no? There were quite a number of other technical hiccups, but it was inevitable considering the incredibly narrow budget and small crew we had. I share your exact perception of Nollywood, and what we're are trying to do is show that African cinema doesn't need to be limited to such movies that you mentioned in your post. With enough production value, we can make movies that can resonate with not just an African audience, but with the rest of the world! We're going to be making a full-length feature this year. And I'm definitely going to remember all the feedback I got from you guys, thanx a lot! |

I can't access it from here in Nigeria. Can you post it on youtube (for accessibility) or blip.tv (for quality)?

What can I say? You asked for a review, so:
- The night scenes were too dark.
- The gossip scene was promising, but nothing came out of it. How was it relevant?
- The 'blue eyed one' looks like a model. I was initially confused about what she saw in the guy.
- But her scene was far to static. The camera and the girl never moved.
- It was rather slow for a short movie, it played like a music video with words.
- It turned out to be a cute little movie, in the very end. Keep developing your craft, bro.
