+1000 to Foley sounds. somehow it doesn't work with just music.
Liked that...simple but well done. Can only echo some of the previous comments... More foley, better definition between past and present etc...
Really liked the cuts with the kid walking (even if I think perhaps the angles are off a bit) and the lingering end shot was very very nice.
Small crumbs of complaint for a nice piece.
Any improvement from my last short/Monday Challenge submission?
I liked it. It's not the usual type of short I enjoy. It was very different, but good.
The voiceover audio had an echo - at least when I played it on my laptop.
Thanks for the great interpretation. In the film, I thought it would be interesting for a man to have everything he has done in his life, and all of his memories in one box. Actually, the box is a collection of photos of my family from the last 90-100 years.
Great interpretation
I was asking if the two short films I posted at the beginning were better than the one I just posted
Nice! was this for Film Riot?
YThanks
Yes, I edited a Monday Challenge version and a separate "extended" cut of the film.

Both were good in my opinion. I especially like the shots on the beach. And nice job cutting from the man to the boy.
I liked both a lot. However, I noticed someone said the short one should have had the shot of him going into the water at the end, and I agree. I guess it symbolizes him dying or something? It felt like everything was "complete"
(Just my thoughts)
This short is very beautiful! I prefer the 3 minute version since it feels just right (though I generally like slower paced films so I can see how some may disagree). If I were to make this film (haha I wish I could!), I would make the memories have a different color scheme (its hard to describe exactly how, but similar to a Hou Hsiao-hsien film I saw). The film really resonated with me because I get nostalgic like this myself, looking at my old stuff. The music and imagery in this film bring that feeling to life, great job man!
Thanks James! I glad that you enjoyed the film. I'm sure you could do something like the film I made. Just keep practicing and working at your craft
Sorry, that 'Y' was an accident. I wasn't paying attention, haha.
