I made a short film in collaboration with my brother-in-law and two other friends over a weekend back in March. We used this as an experiment to see how we could work together and also have some fun.

"MUG, an experimental short film about a man on an ominous journey, was conceived as a 48hr film project, and produced over a single weekend."
Any feedback is welcomed and appreciated!

very cool! a lot of really beautiful shots, and some of those transitions and overlays conveyed the sort of drunken/confused emotion very well. tasteful use of music/audio to drive the story.
my one and only critique is that I felt the digital zooms didn't fit well with the highly-organic (and unstable, presumably purposefully) film and seemed... not well thought-out, maybe? sort of a "lets throw a zoom in here because we think this shot is boring" kind of thing. I, for one, would not have been bored without the zooms.
(is that even the right terminology? I know nothing about film editing!)
really great work overall, though!
