The camera guy certainly didn't leave, but the other guy came in expecting an scene that fit a narrative he already made up. Hear the leading questions the guy was asking, listen to the actual responses. See the two moods the zombie couple were already bringing to the surprise interview. I didn't see the camera person, but I like them. They were clearly looking to find the story, what ever story that may be. Look at the way the focus on how Don's self consciousness about his lack of a lower half. The focus that quickly shifts to Don when he opens up about what he misses. How they also focus on how Andy is careful to fix the flower vase on the table in the midst of Don's anger at the loss of his life. Which is just to say, I like the composition of this video.

[@MyScorpion42]

87CaloriesPerServing I totally would. But this guy didn't have a firearm, he didn't even have legs lol

[@drmantistobboggangonzodr3961]

fart face well on the other hand, you could also say that the camera guy focusing on his lower half was exploitative depending on your point of view, i mean, if a camera-man focused on a disabled person's wheelchair or something and reduced them and their whole story to their disability, and didn't respect their privacy while fighting, that would be kinda odd in my humble opinion and would make some people queasy and sick to their stomach to see that. all people have a basic human dignity and when we refuse to acknowledge that, not to be a social justice warrior because this is just common sense for me, treat people how you would like to be treated, we learn that shit in kindergarten for f*cks sake!. ...........but i like to think maybe the camera guy came with that kind of expectation and then when he focused on the flowers and showed the zombie playing harmonica, he saw through the parts that scared him and his preconceived notions about who they are and what they are, and saw two guys just trying to make something positive out of a life they had torn from them and having relationship disagreements like we probably all do from time to time. maybe I'm reading too much into it, lol but i thought it was good, engaging, liked the characters, explored something about everyone reacts to it differently and good art tends to show you something about yourself in my opinion, so this was great. look forward to seeing more from these guys. the animation was great too.

[@minimoon1372]

I think my favorite part of this short film is when Don starts to play the harmonica. Not just because of how emotionally heavy the moment is but the actual shot itself. You get a clear shot of his hand and the wedding ring he still wears on his finger. And that to me is just a fantastic example of showing and not telling during a story. It makes his "I had a life phrase" so much more meaningful.

What I got out of this video are 2 things: 1) that it’s media’s responsibility to show an honest image (because what they show is what many believe) 2) & that overall, people should hear things out and be open minded rather than running away when it gets difficult or scary.
