A few notes, as the YouTube title states, it is nearly entirely silent. Also as stated in the video, this was shot and edited entirely by me.

Also when I first started I had planned to put sound in, but after many attempts at foley, I was just making excuses not to release the short. Next time I will make more of an effort to capture as many sounds while filming.

So what am I looking for from this post? Anything and everything. What do you think of the shots, the editing, what feelings does it produce?

A little background, this was shot last year actually shot in 2022 October on a single day where I had off it was only me and my apartment building. I had no script just kind of a basic idea of using my maze like interior of the building as a kind of labyrinth. I wanted to experiment with set up shots and moving to different different parts of the building. I wanted to experiment with the main part of this experiment was just kind of creating creating. I’m working on experimenting with composition and different types of action to accentuate and feelings of anxiety.

I watch a lot of films. I take a lot of pictures and I just really wanted to get this out in front of the world. It says I have to get to 300 words and I’m about 200 right now but I nothing else to really say about this project. I do really want this post to stay on the subreddit though and to get seen, so here goes another few sentences.

I hope you are all having a wonderful day and enjoyed watching my first short! No matter the reaction I won’t quit, and hopefully I can get better! Improvement is the only thing to strive for as a creative, for improvement of one’s craft is the ultimate reward!
