I welcome your comments at whatever location you view the film, or in the forum where you heard about it. Thank you!

Excellent work! Got the super secret special link off of Twitter because I couldn't wait for you to wake up and post the "reg release."

Film looks really pretty. Love the color pallette you chose for this.

Nice V.O. work as always.

Looking forward to the rest of the series, Phil.

All I can say is Wonderful movie and I am looking forward to the next chapter.

Amazing.

Luckily it isnt very long, though. I noticed I had forgeten to continue breathing about 3/4 of the way though.

Some very nice use of the gestures and camerawork. This convey's the emotion very well.

Thanks.

Amazing and inspiring work as usual, Overman. This is a great piece, and it's one of the best examples so far of the emotive flexibility of Moviestorm's characters.

Wow, Phil. Just... wow.

Gotta get some ointment for this rug burn on my jaw.

Ok that was awesome

Oi...

...This is impressive, Phil. I really liked it.
Great mood it's established, good camerawork, excellent voice acting, and an almost flawless use of gestures.

...If you're gonna make more of this genre, I'm looking forward to it.

Wonderfully done!
Thanks

you know i'm sitting in the corner right now burning in jealousy, right? ok, time to stop feeling sorry for myself, and put the green-eyed monster back into the closet and GET BACK TO WORK.

superlative work, as always, and inspiring...

VERY COOL!!

This is a stunning piece of work. Stop whatever you're doing and watch it right now.

Phil,

I'd like to say that I was blown away by this, but the truth is I've begun to expect such top tier work from you. I am no longer surprised.

Where to start? I loved the lighting here. Sound design was impeccable. Pacing nearly flawless. The details really sold it such as the TV playing with the mute on and the cars passing outside. I especially liked the reflection of the truck passing. Also great job managing the movement of the background out the window on those dolly moves. You did that in post, right?

Please tell me you're going to post a behind-the-scenes video on this one. :^)

Yep, I want to see that too. We'll just keep adding the requests to this thread until we have quotes-within-quotes-within-quotes that are dozens of requests deep. Then Overman will have to comply with our demands.
