The Grinch

Description
This video is meant to capture the spirit of \"How the Grinch Stole Christmas\", the classic Dr. Seuss book/film, and convert it into something JKA-ish. Well to be honest the only similarity I can see between the two is the music and sounds that have been used. The story itself really seems to have nothing to do with it.

The idea here is that Reelo is the Grinch, although he does nothing in the film that really suggests he\'s a grinchy type. Santa, on the other hand, kicks his butt for impersonating him. Now to me [i]that[/i] seems pretty grinchy. Anyway, that\'s about what I got out of the plot. Some Jedi are playing, then Reelo shows up, stands there for about 5 minutes without moving (just a couple eye twitches), then he jumps down the chimney and eventually gets in a scuffle with Santa. I\'m not sure where the Grinch comes into all of that.

As for the film quality, the camera movements, when they move, are very choppy. Most of the time, however, the camera just jumps from still to still and doesn\'t attempt to follow what little action there is. Most of the film really is just stills of people standing still which, suffice it to say, is a bit boring. The audio cutting is downright poor, for lack of any type of better description. No attempt was made to keep the audio flowing. Instead it abruptly enters and abruptly cuts off with no fades. Also the music was so inconsistent that at times I wondered if I had muted my computer. No, I hadn\'t... there just wasn\'t any music in several places where there should have been.

Overall I\'d say work on your filming style, and [i]definitely[/i] work on your audio editing. And for future reference, a 2 minute scene with Reelo and Santa saying \"eh?\" back and forth could be significantly cut down, or cut out altogether.
