Excellent! From every aspect.
Well, the credits went by a little fast for my eyeballs. I guess I'll just have to watch it again and watch the "making of" video too. ;-)

Worth my time. Well written, very well directed, good performances -- all trades well exectued. An "A" grade short. But the point of this might have been the Pentax -- was the "green" look the Pentax, the compression on YouTube, or the CC in post trying for a cinematic look? Any way you cut it -- it was too green. But the over-green didn't bother me too much -- just that the stuff I've seen off the Canon DSLR's is much better.

The making of seems to indicate that Pentax may have put money into this....


Another inspiration for wannabees. Lots of work to make a class product (and lots of talent too). But money is far less a problem than it use to be.
And I particularly like the directors statement that "story" is still the most important element.

I believe the Pentax uses an MJPEG codec, so the quality probably isn't nearly as good as the Canon. On the other hand, if you have the Pegasus MJPEG codec installed with it's superior and incredibly quick mjpeg decoding, you might be able to stick the clips right on a Vegas timeline without recoding into an intermediate and still have good preview and rendering performance.
