Hi I'm new to the forum.
I've been watching a lot of the short films on here and they're all really cool
so I thought maybe I should give it a shot myself to see what everyone would think.
This is a 4 and half minute experimental/horror short I went out and did which
I was also considering expanding to a longer more linear/plot sensible short.

It's about a color blind man who can see color when he paints with blood.
Not the best idea, I know, but it offered me a lot of visual ideas to play around with.

Anyway, hope some one enjoy's it.

I will respectfully disagree with Will Vincent on this one--I thought the audio really worked. Right from the start, it set the mood for what was to come. Visually, it shows an amazing style. Conceptually, ...what can I say? I agree with those who say that your story didn't come through in the viewing, but I applaud you for that. It is refreshing to see a work that doesn't lead you by the hand. Clearly, it will not satisfy everyone's taste...but as long as you have satisfied your own, then you are an artist with integrity. Good job.
