I love it! He is exactly like my husband! Well, he would be too lazy to run away like him but he would made a joke out of me in a different way :) The editing work that you've done is amazing!

Thank you for sharing and congratulations on the curie vote! You absolutely deserve it!

Hi @distantsignal, thank you for sharing your short movie for a wide auditorium. It is always good to know what people think. In my opinion there are few very positive things: the quality of the movie is really great, it is no difference from those what we usually see on Television. I love the actors, especially the female, she has great mimic, everything she feels and want to say she transmits with her whole appearance and that is really great. The male character I found less expressive and a little bit boring. The whole film I like till the moment when the female first said "i love you" and of course then repeatedly the same sentence, it completely destroyed the whole film. I would prefer either no words and just expressions with mimic body language or a little bit more, because such moments when one opens his heart to another contains much more vocabulary. That is my opinion, I hope you are not so angry with it :)

Thanks for your feedback. Whether we like it or not, saying those three words is almost as important as our actions, which is why I needed her to eventually say it. She realizes that she isn't going to get anywhere by being passive aggressive. The film definitely changes tone when she does say it, but it's a turn I enjoy. I'm glad you thought it looked as good as anything on TV. That is a high compliment. Thank you for taking the time to watch the film and comment thoughtfully. I appreciate it.

I love IT!

Fantastic work my friend, very stylish when needed and there's some super individual moments in there too.
The performances are wonderful, great direction.
From the BTS videos I wondered how the meal scene with the giant 'love' might pan out, but it's better than I could've imagined.
The editing and pace of the flash/buzz is a stroke of brilliance.

Makes me want to go out there and make a proper short of my own! Well done @distantsignal

Thanks, Ash! I'm glad you enjoyed it. The flashing was probably the hardest part to edit. That thing was being manually turned on and off and so the timing was always different. I had to force it into a rhythm! I'm so happy it works for you. If you do make a short, lemme know!

@distantsignal loved this! I'm newer on the platform and am also planning to use Steem as a place to share film! I agree with you said about using the platform as a way to support being an independent artist- Subsidizing income and funding projects is a multi layered thing! So glad I found your page, looking forward to seeing more. And if there's any way I can become more involved in the Steem Film community let me know!!

distantsignal (64) 6 years ago

Thanks @lifesacircus! I'll definitely be posting more video content and films as time goes by. As for #steemfilm, just use the hashtag when posting about your own filmmaking work.

I just made a post kicking off sharing my process of making my first short film so I will definitely use that! Thanks xo

Hey, @distantsignal.

Really enjoyed this. Surreal, yet familiar. There's a definite need for her to get "I love you" out of him, while he plays oblivious to it. It appears that all along she was trying to get him to say it, he was trying to get her to say it first. And when he does finally say it, she's not all that happy about being first. Typical, in my experience. :)

Great acting, very expressive both with lines and without, great production quality, story was well told. Very much deserving of the curie. Well done!
