Jayboy124: I loved the storyline more than the first one even though the first one was a lot more artistic. But I would have loved it to have ended better.

I think your short films are sooooooooooooo much more interesting than most features we see in Nollywood. Better start planning that first feature.

Bro, thank you for your massive vote of confidence. I have a couple of crazy features that I might never shoot. I have a new one that I'm working on right now - an adaptation of a book that I read in Secondary school - it has a few major problems -

Dilema 1 - it's a book for kids but the kids are wicked little s.h. i.t.s - so internationally that won't make a 'family film' without dropping 80% of blood & death in the book.
Dilema 2 - I must be crazy to want to work with kids.
Dilema 3 - Trying to get a producer that knows the ins & outs of the international markets & festivals... eerrrmmmm one here that will actually work with an unknown me lol
Dilema 3 - There is a certain 'A'-lister I really want to be the 'narrator' of the film but I don't think I can ever get him.


PS - Forgot the even bigger dilema... I haven't even got the options/rights for the book yet. The authour is dead so I have to meet the Naija publishers. Dayum, I'm making it difficult for myself.

Oh well... dream BIG or don't dream at all. Hahahaha

Like I promised, here are my comments

Script/Plot - Dialogue & interaction between the characters was well scripted and portrayed. It was believable and despite it being a leisurely conversation between two people it stayed interesting through out it's duration. I actually had a smile on my face while watching it and laughed out loud at the end.

Score/Background music: The ''jazzy'' background sound in the film accentuated the scenes perfectly and it faded in and out at the right moments.

Use of subtlety: I like the use of subtlety at the end when she told him her occupation, wrote on his palm and told him not to be a stranger as she was getting into the car. Keeping it short and leaving it for the viewer to figure out. . . . I like that cool

All in all, this is much better than ''Sweet 16''

Even as Director of Photography and Editor, I'll say Kudos smiley

^^I agree with the above. I felt the actor was quite hard to believe though. He didn't draw me in as much as the actress did.

Hiya, yes my actual name is Anele Onwuka and I'm glad you liked it. We guess he was startled because he didn't expect her to be a hook-er... maybe he wanted a free lunch grin

Thank you very, very much Semi. It was a pretty good short and we spent a lot of time on the pre-prod. It took 8 variations of the edit to get to where it ended up. The guy that did the score was awesome. I always think there is something pretty nice about shooting outside.

Funny bit of trivia - The actor & actress are both English (not American or French - they were acting with totally fake accents lol) and they are also both real-life boyfriend and girlfriend. Glad you enjoyed it.

Effort not in vain and time well spent cos the final product was good

VillageBoi: The guy that did the score was awesome. I always think there is something pretty nice about shooting outside.

Yeah, I take particular note of background sounds in movies and the score is my favourite part of this film. Talking about scores, you don see Red Cliff?. Gawd, I love the score of that film. . . I dey play the movie everyday on top my pc just so I can listen to the score in some scenes lol.

VillageBoi: Did the 'STILLS' links work?

Yeah, I tried the first link and it's working perfectly, dunno about the second link though.

Guy, no be lie but you gats start pooling resources together to make your feature film. You can count on my e-support grin

lynx200: Nice job villageboi.

NB- Mouth already watering for your full lenght feature. When will it be done? By the way have u gone tru the TV series script I posted in one of the threads?(Get inspired)

Like I said earlier we need more people like u down here in Nollywood.

Thank you bros. Yes I did read your TV episode; I love the opening style, love the characters, loved the story but two things to mention. First I think Beauty & Scarlet have ages that are too young - the mom should be late 40's/50's and not 30ish and the (already, possibly, sexually rampant) daughter should be mid 20's and not a young teenager. Secondly can you find a way not to send Ikenna & Edet to jail in the very first episode - they are very crucial comedy characters.

I felt the male character was too carefree especially when he was trying to wow the lady...he knows all the processes of love making and his voice wasn't the least bit 'husky'?

But I liked it. Well done

Good to hear you liked the little film. That is one of the issues we run into when it comes to making short films. Most times we make them just to learn and a lot of times we throw in a bunch of 'friends'. Casting can be a bit of a problem for no-budget films. The new Naija short I'm planning to do or shall I say 'was' planing to do fell through for that very reason... I might revive it if I get the 'cast' - a mother and 2 children. The mother is a friend of mine and is onboard but where to get 2 children?

The score for Red Cliff was composed by Dmitri Golovko,right? I haven't seen the film but I've take a great liking to his works. He's really good!

I'll find it. John woo is undoubtedly right up there with the best but I'm not a freak for action flicks, so he doesn't really influence my work that much. But he is an amazing director nonetheless, and if you say the movie is really good, then I'll take your word for it and be sure to find the movie.

What I think is this...you'll get the right cast if you go to the right places...no one gets paid to act in school, the thrill of having people watch you is enough. Now the thrill of being online even if it's in a short clip is enough for some...check in the right places

What you said is very true, can happen but doesn't always happen like that. You might get a cast you like but as they are doing it for next to nothing (of course transport and feeding is always included as a bare minimum) you have to depend on their availability. If a good choice gets a paying gig on a day you are shooting you have to go with the 2nd or 3rd. A lot of first few shorts are made as a learning experience. I promise to get better!

The Director of this film and I had just finished working on a different short and on the first day of that shoot I had bought this camera to shoot a few BTS (Behind The Scenes) shots. When the guys saw what came out of my little camera we decided to do something to see how far we could push it under low-light. The lighting in this film is just street lights; it was late at night and on 3 of the coldest days we had... oh the joy of suffering for art hahahaha.
This is the BTS - The first clips that ever came out of this camera before I learnt how to use it. Sorry it's only on Vimeo so will have to load fully before playing in some places as per slow internet - BTS - https://vimeo.com/8000672
