AVPROD - Paternity Ward

http://www.ifilm.com/video/2795642

What I liked

The change from the beginning to end was very noticable and in a fou minute comedy clip, it's quite an achievement to successfully pull off. In this case, the two guys are congratulating each other on their new children and generally being standard men in the situation they're in, happy and content. Things change pretty soon after as the two men start wondering what their kids could be like in the future, only for the one on the left to start taking 'diggs' at the one on the right's kid (to which he becomes naturally annoyed, but keeps cool). After having enough, he has a go back but the guy on the left relaxes and says he is fine with however she grows up. It doesn't strike me as confusing at first, i assumed he was actually just a decent, open-minded guy, but at the end, you find out the mother of the baby died giving birth and that he intended to sell the baby!

What I disliked

To be honest, I thought everything was well made. If I were doing the same shoot, I'd have perhaps suggesting a quick pan to the babies but who knows, I may have decided to cut it like this director perhaps did.

PD4C - Portfolio Exercise - Still Image Narrative

This is the first version of the composition and is likely to be the final. I just need to add the audio now...
