Hi Seth, nice film, generally well put together. I don't grasp American films very well, or American emotional life. I guess this is about some sort of local nuclear father-son thing, and the Dad finding closure finally on his own Dad's sudden death by revisiting the situation with his own son. The other actors appear to me to be presented more as bystanders than participants, and I'd have them more involved. That's just me, I guess. Fine effort.

You should totally submit some of your short films to the SHORT SHOWCASE:
Hey man,
I have watched several of your videos on this site and really like you attitude, philosophy and ideas towards the new media motion picture industry. Keep up the good work.
I am still learning how to market a short film and whether to have it online for free or sell it. Luckily we didn't spend that much and recouping expenses should be fairly easy. Any thoughts or ideas on that?
We've been up for almost half of 2010, though we really didn't launch the full campaign until fall 2010. Now that we're officially "live" we're hoping to build a strong, niche community of indie digital filmmakers --the same wave of talent that will define this emerging new media motion picture industry.
Thanks. This is a great site!! How long have you been active? How many members. Thanks again.

Hey Gil,
Thanks for the feedback. You seem to have a good understanding of the film. I hear you about the other actors needing to be more involved. I feel the same way. We made this film to help raise money for a feature length version. If that happens the characters and story will be expanded on. More participants, less bystanders. As filmmakers we want to continue to grow and learn and your comments help us do just that. Thanks again.
