    Hi Mike,

    first of all I thank you for your feedback. It is certainly not something easy to read but unfortunately completely justified.

    I’m not a film student and I have not learned filmmaking, i don’t know many Film people, so it’s important for me to practice and make errors. Although I read a lot about filmmaking and i study the old movies, is for me the true set the right teacher. Alone on this one days with 13 hours of shooting time and I have learned much more as the last six months.

    But this should not be an excuse for poor work. What bothers me ist once the length of the film and that the film is predictable. I wanted to make no Horrer but I wanted to misdirect the audienceon, but that barely works.

    I have prepared the film in two weeks. Written script, created Shorlist, location scouting, found friends who have the time, shot, edited, colored, made ​​sound design and music composed for it. If i would have more time left for anything, then the film would be probably a bit better.

    In one thing I would disagree with you. Each story is worth being told. It always depends on the how you tell it 🙂

    thx 🙂

    P.S. sry about my bad englisch, I hope it is somewhat understandable

    “I don’t understand the lyrics for the song however I would look for ways to broaden the story and to make it as interesting as the music and the beautiful women…what are they singing about – could that suggest some scenes to film? What happened to the principal characters just BEFORE coming to the dance party and AFTER? Think of it more like a movie with a beginning, middle and end instead of just one scene.”

    Hey Steve,

    interesting that you say that, because that was my first thought when I planned the shooting for the video 🙂 unfortunately i had to stay with the simple version though for various reasons: (

    Overall you’re right with your criticism, I should incorporate more “story” to the video.

    As for the lyrics, hehehe I do not understand themselves too. When I inquired, she said, it’s about dancing and party 🙂 So nothing earth shattering 🙂

    Thanks again for your feedback

    p.s. and you are a half German hehhe, this world is really small 🙂
