Notes Of An Insomniac - short


Recommended Posts

Hi guys

 

Long time reader, first-time poster on the forum. Recently shot a short film, you can see here: https://vimeo.com/322197103

 

Would love some feedback. For context, I shot it as a one-man band, on Alexa Mini with Zeiss Superspeeds and glimmer glass. A lot of neg fill, 2 x astra litepanels and 1 x litepanels gemini.

Beautifully shot and great music. Not a fan of multiple quick cuts and being bombarded with multiple quick images. Didn't really follow the monologue. Multiple images + multiple words caused me to lose the thread.

Like the lighting - has a nice look overall.

 

I don't think the music works - its too upbeat and busy. It fights the voice over, too much going on in the same frequency. Also it feels at odds with the image and VO - they are darker and melancholic and the music is too happy, jars.

 

The images suggest a more Clint Mansell esq track
