I really like this story. I wasnt expecting that ending so it was really interesting to see. I also really like how its in black and white, I think it adds to the meaning of the story.
I agree with Laura, I really liked the story. I think that it could hit home for some people, which is really nice and sentimental. I would change is maybe to darken the whole film because it seemed like it was really bright outside that day, so darkening might help it look a little more natural rather than a bit exposed. Another thing I would change is to try to get rid of the shadow in the middle of the girl and the boy were the sticky notes were. It wasn't too distracting, but I think it would've looked even better if there was no shadow at all. I really loved how the camera zoomed in on "You're still beautiful" and you cut it there because it says so much about the male character and what type of person you were trying to portray, I think it worked really well. Great job!!
A different take on a the classic boys meets girl story. I thought some of the cuts were long and it could be shortened. Otherwise I thought it was great!
Very unique. I really enjoy how, as Dan said, it's a completely new direction for the typical. I also believe your creative decision to keep it black and white was an effective one, because that helps the viewer to focus more on the actions taking place, rather than the exuberance of a full-color film, especially since the interaction between both characters was essentially driving this entire piece. There was a sudden black picture that came in between seconds 0:22 to 0:24 which was a bit jarring for me, but overall I'm definitely a fan of what you've put together.
Interesting idea! I really enjoyed! I think it was a great decision to use hand written notes. There is something touching when people who like each other write their own notes. I enjoyed the music playing in the background. It didn't take away from the scene. It added more to it. One scene that could have been shortened is when he was first writing to christina. But all in all excellent idea and the black and white i enjoyed!
