Thompson - ?!Gardens!? - UWOL long form

Mat - the images you have captured escape simple words. VERY impressive. I'm anxious to see your finished piece - it already has a distinctly BBC look to it!

You set a high standard, and keep me working ever harder to try and improve my work as a result of your high standard. Thanks !

Hi Mat.
I have downloaded your video and though the VO is "just" telling us what you're going to do, it's awesome. The pictures are great and I know for sure this must be a doc you can sell to a TV company. Also that you are thinking like me, to work more on the film after the final ULF deadline.
As this is just a brief look into what to come I can't give you any helping advice other than say it will be great :)
Well, the tilts and pans (using a jib/flowers and apples) maybe just a little bit too fast?

Thank you for bringing it to us :)

All the best
Geir Inge

Matt, your footage is beautiful. You are the master of the close up. Color was very well balanced and you camera movement was soooo smooooth. A wonderful journey into th world of macro. Great entry. Bob
