Feedback always appreciated
 
Well, it's a good idea. But you've missed a lot of opportunities (in every single shot) to make it funnier.
 
It seemed to rely pretty heavily on the script to get the work done, with the acting taking back seat. The dialogue though... it didn't really have much to it. It was very simplistic (which isn't necessarily a bad thing), and it kept it... very passive. Not sure if that's the right word to use.

I can understand kinglis' opinion - it was kept very basic there were a few things you could have added to make it funnier, but you played it safe at every turn. Nevertheless, I quite enjoyed it anyway, it's better than a lot of the comedy shorts I've seen around, but there was quite a lot of missed opportunities that really come down to personal preference, I guess. The audio quality wasn't too bad either, and stayed fairly consistent, with just a few quirks now and again.

Nice work though, in particular I like the shot where the guy creeps around the corner to look into the kitchen :)
 
That's some quality feedback, thanks very much. I'll make note for next time.

The things is I'm a writer/ film-maker and not necessarily an actor. Which is probably why it seems like I write better than I act.

We did want to keep it short, sweet and simple on purpose.

P.s. I'm the guy creeping round the corner
