404: Adrian Not Found

This film had a great introduction to all the characters, and a lot of humour. The real-time waiting for Windows to load was brilliant as everyone can relate to the frustration, and was a completely unexpected joke for this genre of film.

The whole thing felt like a great introduction to a really interesting film - and then suddenly it was over. The film ended just where it felt like the action was about to begin. It felt like the team had produced the first 5 minutes of a great longer film. On further thoughts, it did have a carefully crafted ending - finding the coordinates and heading off to find them - but it felt like a turning point rather than an ending. Most 5 minute films have to be just part of a larger story - ours being no exception - and it is very difficult to make that snippet feel satisfying within itself. This film doesn't quite achieve that in my opinion. My one suggestion for you for next year would be to try and deliver a more satisfyingly conclusive ending.

The underlying story was excellent. I also really liked the shadows of The Tunnel Man, which added to the ominous tone of the whole thing.
