watch From Day to Night. My made in Japan short film.

So after a few years of being unable to make any serious shorts, I finally got a chance this time last year to shoot one here in Japan. I'm pretty pleased with it - there's a lot I'd change in retrospect, as with anything - but I've now put it live on Vimeo for people to check out. So it would be awesome if you gave it a look and told me what you thought!

It was also the first time I attempted entering any festivals. I lucked into being accepted into a Japanese film festival in Saitama. It was one of the most buttclenching things I've ever done. Being up on a stage doing a live Q&A and meeting with Japanese directors, it is definitely something I'll remember for a long, long time.

Sensual use of dialogue. Works to your favor. One feel it coming and it comes amazingly. -the three words, I mean.
 
A couple of those transitions were really cool.
I wonder if him wearing a slightly different shirt would've added anything to it.
Or having him clean shaven, then stubbled.
You actually do look butt clenched in that pic haha
Congrats :)
 
wow loved it the transitions and angles and the story the then and now effect shot was the best shot this would be a perfect flashback in a horror story
 
Thanks for the feedback all!

I wanted to keep the shirt consistent, but I did think about the clean shaven thing. Unfortunately my friend was only in Japan for a limited time, so we shot 95% of this in one day.
