Apart from the wonderful use of ambient sound, ambient music as counterpoint or punctuation, the subtle charging of emotions by sound and image, i am most pleased by the way your film seems to have this effect of "creating itself or learning from itself in the process".

moreApart from the wonderful use of ambient sound, ambient music as counterpoint or punctuation, the subtle charging of emotions by sound and image, i am most pleased by the way your film seems to have this effect of "creating itself or learning from itself in the process". This seems especially evident in the scenes where I thought you would focus on a particular subject (such as the plastic dragon flies, the girl) only to be surprised by a zoom out or zoom in to another point of interest (the children in the playground, another girl). But I like very much that the zooms don't seem deliberate, as if they are like the process of thought, the camera changing its mind in mid zoom. I like that you let other people handle the camera. Things seem random, but there's a subtle structuring to it. (My criticism is that I'm not sure about the length of some of the shots being held as long as they should be. But I could be wrong.) Overall: Bravo. Looking forward to your other works.
P.S. Being Ilonggo, understanding the language adds a nice element of true humour to it.=) <a href="#" onclick="WallPosts.hideFull(68062); return false;">less</a>
