How NOT to make a movie...

Rating: 5/10 (13 April 2012)

My wife and I almost had to leave the theater. The cuts, pans, hand shake, depth of views changes... it all seems like a kid that got a new camera and wanted to try out every new feature and put them into his first film. It got to the point where I was just waiting and hoping for a 30 second time period with the camera holding still so I could recover. And I do not get motion sick anywhere... Terrible editing and directing.
It felt like 1/2 the shots in the first 30 minutes were focused so close on their face that you could only see from the eyebrow to the mouth... with a shaky camera and constant cuts and pans. Watch this movie to see what happens when you try to get 30 angles of every scene and then piece them all together.
Honestly, as you watch it count the seconds of continuous film until a new shot. I did this at the first of the film for about 5 minutes and on average it was about 5 seconds. Show this in film school for what not to do.
