That chicks soul is HOT!
very nice. what did you use to shoot and chop it?
Yay! She’s wearing a seatbelt in the car! Safety first!
Definitely my fav so far. Especially the slow clap at the end. Every story needs a slow clap.
Thanks, glad you like it! We used the Panasonic DVX100A to shoot and Final Cut Pro to edit.
AWESOME. great job.
Great video!best I have seen yet!The video is emotionally really catching.Just would like to give a constructive critisism concerning the end:Think it would be even more emotional if one would keep the happy ending as a dream which is emobodied through the parts in nature.And Leave the two in reality dreaming about a happing endind. May one could make an open ending for the reality part.The feeling of longing for each other would be much stronger. Good luck with your video!!!!
I like this one the most so far. My ONLY criticism is the ending. The clapping is a little too cliche, but other than that, AMAZING JOB! I hope you win.
cool man
I liked it! would you hate me if i laughed at times? =P
thanks guys for making it impossible to win anymore. good job.
wow…. i think you just shot and killed everyone elses chances of winning…. good job.

To Bryan Harley:Like, did you just edit this or did you film it as well? I could see some really cool editing, but other times it’s like “what did he have to work with?”. There are at least a couple (sorry, I didn’t count) of editing bits that were really cool. I was just wondering if this was a “cold edit” (you were given footage to edit) or a “warm edit” (you shot and edited it, or at least had info on the footage beforehand)?

I shot and co-edited the music video. So they were “warm edits” in that I knew how I was going to edit when I was shooting.
