Recent reviews

Solid piece of short film that was entertaining and funny. Great camera work, editing and acting.

Loved it so much and made me laugh the whole time. Inclusive performance academy is amazing. As I am apart of the crew on a Thursday and a Tuesday afternoon. Great job guys

Arneth Murania take a bow this is some of the absolutely best lighting I have ever seen in a 48 hours film. Cooking from frame one in the bathroom until the last frame, Glowtime have delivered a seriously polished film for the comp this year, where things go from bad to worse with a very clever deadly interruption.

Seriously I'm sitting here and marveling at how you distinctly captured the side lighting glow of a bathroom mirror and pushed the brightness of the frame, and then nailed that brighter warmer intimate bar feeling once our lead was back at the table. The hues looked so good! This might sound like I'm waxing lyrical about some regular film lighting, but it just really elevated proceedings for me.

The general conceit of the film works well for a comedy of errors film; nerves and anxiety displayed through a terrific performance from Ollie Madsen who conveys these emotions with the speech rehearsal into the mirror to kick off proceedings and immediately presents 2 interesting dramatic questions. 1. will he build up the 'courage' to dump the unsuspecting partner. and 2. does she deserve to be dumped?

Now it takes a deft hand to bring balance to serious propositions with comedy and let awkward situations speak for themselves, but Anna Brajkovich and Harry Matheson do exactly that, keeping the action focused on our 2 lovers on the brink as the apocalypse related to the title unfolds.

I think it was a really clever decision to have the gallows humour unfold largely in the background, as numbers dwindle giving a genuine end of the world air to proceedings. In many ways it reminded me of the final scenes of my favourite film of all time MIRACLE MILE.

Sound by the way was absolutely immaculate, it made for a very smooth ride of a film that didn't muck around and told a brilliant tight little story.

My only 2 personal areas where I thought the film could have potentially been elevated even higher may have been a stronger angle or 2 as the impactful action unfolded. And for me personally I think the ending was reasonably obvious from early on. But that's personal nitpicking and I think the film was excellent. Great work Glowtime!

You've made such an interesting film. I loved your story, the set, and the special fx. All of the actors did an outstanding job, including the robot-y ones. I found some of the dialogue to be exposition heavy, with the characters explaining to each other things that they probably both already knew to catch the audience up. But the foundation of your film was excellent, and I think you could have trusted the audience to connect the dots. We learn a lot visually and both actresses were very expressive and all the emotions landed because of their gestures, posture, and facial expressions etc. You made something really special, though, and I can't wait to see what you do next

Super funny. I loved the escalation and everyone not living up to her fantasys. This was well written, shot, and edited. There were a lot of characters to establish and they were all established well for what you needed. Them coming together at the end was fun. All around excellent job

What a surprisely sweet film! I love that it's set in 3008 but still felt 80s in terms of production design. Great set and costumes. Some really funny moments. I had a visceral reaction to the slime licking haha, which in hindsight I'm suddenly realizing that I don't know what it was, because at the time I assumed it was alien slime, but there was no alien haha. So what was she licking lolllll. Icky xD Anyway! The fight scene was great! I love that Zeta didn't hesitate for a second to refuse her order, and the tenderness between the two characters was so lovely and it hit all the deeper because of the contrast to the rest of the film. I loved it. One of those films that leaves you feeling good

I appreciated going straight from hacker genre title card to sheep haha, because my brain wasn't expecting something so natural (was slow on the Hactor uptake obviously, but brilliant name). Your film was funny. The drawing you chose was excellent. It was so clear, so even though we only saw it for a moment, it was easily readable and that allowed enough time to enjoy the humor of it. Step one tractor, step two boat haha. And lots of great hacker/tractor puns. Hacktor was perfectly the overlapping parts of a venn diagram in name and story.

Wow! Was this frame by frame animation, because I'm so impressed at what you accomplished in a weekend. You made a lot of very smart choices to get it done on time well, like security camera for the one take genre, and the speech bubbles that were a mix of words and animation. I loved the angle. Did you draw the fish eye lens on all the characters/setting or edit it to be that way afterwards because it looked great. It's not an easy angle/shot to draw. The crayon /sketchy texture around the frame was nice too. Beautiful colours, funny story, smart choices, executed well. Great job

Fun music, classic shenanigans, super funny. The two actors breaking into the school were great to watch, very charismatic. Their fantasy of how "good" the security guard probably wouldn't be was hilarious. Very much enjoyed watching
