[THAC XIII] My Masterpiece.

Watch it here

A man goes on an adventure of a lifetime. A THAC XIII entry.

Well. Well. Well. This entry is the product of my staying up for 22 hours - far longer than I have in any THAC before. I'm not sure the quality really improved from last year...

It was really fun to make - but I also decided after having some problems with my other story ideas to just "wing it" (and I think that it shows). Not sure if that was the best idea - but, hey! I made my 3rd THAC entry and my 5th brick film in 22 hours and that feels good.

Please do comment and give me feedback as I value every member's critiques!

Thank you!

Re: [THAC XIII] My Masterpiece.

I feel like this film is sort of in between a satire and a more abstract film, which kind of left me confused at first as to what was going on. This kind of thing was fairly ambitious for THAC, and I don't think I've seen anything quite like this, so good job with that. Glad you could enter! mini/bigsmile

I could not have more accurately described the struggle I had while making this film. Very spot on analysis mini/smile

Gotta love that portal. I liked the abstract and self-referential nature, and the music fit well.

Fun fact (or just a fact): As I filmed that shot I realized I'd forgotten the mod element so I moved the camera downwards and but the room was too dark to see a black and yellow brick. But then I realized that my keyboard has the letter "P" mini/tongue

Thank you - I'm glad that you liked the abstractness - at 3 AM I'm not exactly in the best place to be thinking critically of my film mini/smile

Haha, this is great. I echo what everyone else says. My favorite line has to be when you said "In complete assembly", that was perfect. The lighting was also great, I look forward to seeing more from you!

I love this entry, reminds me of a Don Hertzfeldt film. The music fit the film nicely. A simple and yet unique film.
