"Show & Tell"
- Two characters meet in a park. They speak of an elusive object. One believes that contact whith this mysterious object is needed, while the other feels that words alone hold truth enough. Personally, I think they're a bit bonkers and have no bleedin' clue what they're on about.

It's my second short film, first real stab.

I know the angles are of a pretty standard 3 cam setup but i think it works.

any critisism would be great... (and if you could find it in your heart to give an old dying man such as myself a five star rating COUGH! that would be much apreciated)

Thanks,
Chuck.

I thought that was good. What made that what it was, was the quality of acting and relaxed pacing. You brits sure know how to act! :)

Nice work.
 
Yes, acting was quite good. Pace was a tad slow -- once you've established the premise there isn't quite enough going on to justify the lengthy pauses. Music also became a bit repetitive over that length of time.

I also must admit some disappointment at being left dangling at the end, though I understand it was beside the point. A little like Waiting For Godot, perhaps.

Good job.

Ok, Cheers. Apart from the problem with the "lengthy pauses" (which i quite like), I'd have to agree with all of that, especially the repetitiveness of the music! That really pissed me off while I was editing it :P

Thanks
Ch.
