"Requited" at the Doorpost Film Project! VOTE FOR US!

 (By all means, read the LOST recap below as well...but DO THIS FIRST!  Vote early and often, and spread the word.  You may see this about a dozen more times over the next month.)


"Requited," the short film I shot on the RED One Camera in February for director Jonathan Talbert (look him up on IMDb), has just been posted online as an official entry in the Doorpost Film Project

Please go online to view the film and to vote on it.  There are only 100 entries in competition, and if we are one of the top 10 finalists we will receive a big grant to make another film this summer.  Good odds, I'd say, but not without your help!

Since the website can be cumbersome, below are the easy steps to voting for the film.  Keep in mind the last step; none of the films are over 7 minutes long, and given that they actually went through a selection process, you won't have any YouTube misfits here.  These are quality. 

PLEASE take a bit of time out of your day and do this!  And forward this on to everyone you know!

Is Requited one of the five posted? or do you have to go through a whole bunch to get to it? I did leave a comment though.

Can't vote often if you have to watch every bit of other films completely before you get to the one you want to vote on. Any way around it?

Good job though, John. To copy my comments:

Well shot short. The audio was maybe too crisp, keeping it in the indie feel. I appreciated the care taken in the lighting to place your perspective in definite different times and places. The DP did a great job with angles and focus, and letting John Wilson just skirt the edge of the frame. On the previous repetitive note, I think your design to have the same things said by the same character in very distinctly different emotions reminds all viewers that it is more that what is said, but how it is said that matters. There was plenty of time for me personally to reflect on my own manners...I said that, but not with that conviction... for instance. It was a character study beyond anything I have seen. Great job.
