If you can take a look at this clip of my short film titled "Hooka Face and the Virgin Boy" and leave feedback that would be great.

Put it somewhere, where one does not have to register to view it. I don't have a Facebook account.

Occasionally someone may password protect a clip on Vimeo, but then usually puts it into the post when asking for feedback.

Have you tried clicking on the link? I believe it's public. I was not logged into Facebook, but still got to the video just fine.

Just tried it from a different system, and yes it comes up. Don't know why I got the Facebook registration/signon page before.

well since people have just talked about facebook and not the actual clip yet, i guess Ill start. I thought it was pretty funny, the two people had some good chemestry, i mean obvisouly the point was that it was sposed to be really awkward but they worked well togetehr. the documentary style shooting was cool, but in the rest of the film do they know the cameras are there or is it just the style your shooting and its sposed to be like noone is in the room

I like it. I'm a big fan of the handheld look, but at times it was a bit much. If you don't already have it on, use OIS. If you do, just be more careful with the movement.

Otherwise, it was pretty nice. I'd like to see at least one other camera angle, but surprisingly it wasn't very boring with just the one. A few of the guy's lines sounded a bit forced, too.

Overall, good job.

yeh i liked it.....the actors did pretty good. sometimes the girl was "acting" a bit...but overvall was good. the handheld as diedgo said got a bit much at times...and i also am surprised i didnt getbored with the one angle...but that could have been cuz the camera was still moving around. Just be careful not to overdo the handheld...cuz trust me, we will know its handheld without the "extra".
Oh and if u dont have the built in mic off...please turn it off...i heard the zoom ring when u whip zoomed on the guy.

Goodstuff.

to jambredz: that zoom ring clicked bothered me too, but i was able to fix it
to linkdafourf: the camera will be completely unobtrusive, and the characters are not aware of it

Thanks for all the feedback guys!

The handheld did add some tension to the awkwardness...well for me.
