  • Very heart warming composition.
    I am not a technical person, so I don't care about what lenses or cameras were used.
    But, I am a human being and a self taught artist, so I really loved the way you told us your story. A little masterpiece full of emotion and love.
    Bravo!
  • Thank you very much Leo! I just had to express my feelings.

    Wir schon zuvor gesagt wurde, ist das Video inhaltlich und emotional unheimlich wertvoll. Es regt sehr zum nachdenken an und zeigt gut die Gefühle, die mit deinem Vater verbunden werden und hier verarbeitet werden. Auch von der technischen Seite ist es ansprechend, mit den verlangsamten Szenen...
  • Danke Daniel! Schoen, dass du diesen Film so siehst. Es freut mich, dass meine Gefuehle so gut ruebergekommen sind.

    Christine, very very very nice video. I like it. Thank you. You are good daughter !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • Thank you! I would say I have a good Father!!!!
  • Don Barnes 1 year ago
    I suppose one reflects on the other - Good daughters dont generally just happen.

    This did move me on several levels. As an artist, the beauty of it touched me. As a son, the humanity of this relationship reached my heart. As a human being, it made me appreciate what a powerful person you must be. As a father, it made me look to my own children and feel very humble.

    Thank you.
  • Thank you so much Don, for your beautiful comment!

    Hello Christine. What a fantastic film! Excuse me for not writing anything about cameras or lenses; I think this film is far better than that. In my opinion this is art and your beaytiful pictures tell us a wonderful story about love.
    Thank you for sharing.
  • Thank you Michael for your beautiful words and thank you for watching!

    By the way; do you know, that I use you as a 'Signpost'?

    Very nice work, Christine! It definitely captures the warmness and love. I'm not technical about camera stuff, but you did an amazing job with the shallow DoF and the tracking shots. Good work!
