Morning Boy (2014)

It would be cute if the production wasn't a mess.

I know this is an older short. But I still don't like it much. The production seems a mess. Maybe it's just me but I seem to often care a lot about the acting and production rather than the story itself. Although I rather not be critical I really have to be for this one. Not gonna larp this time.

So my main issue was the production. That colour correction hurt my eyes. It's sooo bright. I often see this happening in older Thai media. But one of the things I rarely see is this bad of an editing. I can't. it's like you can see them saying action ON CAMERA. There's like a millennial pause. Another thing I really disliked were the unnecessary shots that were shaky. Many times it's chosen to do but this sucked. One thing I learned while editing myself is that those fade's are absolutely forbidden and I finally understand why.

Some shots didn't even have any background noise. Although this short was silent in general I really hated the scene's without any noise. It sounds unnatural. I don't think a silent film is that bad but it was soo weird. Also, it was really funny to me how he had payphone downloaded on his phone.

Overall watching this was as if I was watching a film project from a first year film student. I don't even think the director was a film student, it was that bad. It's funny to me that the assistant director now makes amazing shit like love you teacher. She's still an assistant director but now she actually makes good stuff. I can't find much info on the actual director so that makes me a bit sad. Rlly hope he makes cool stuff now tho.
