Why would the pandemic prevent you of pursuing your passion of any instrument or anything at all? Does this plandemic prevent us from grocery shopping, drinking alcohol, taking a dump? No sir. Thanks I’ll be here all night.
This is perhaps the most brilliant compression of a story. Ironically, it takes place in the course of one minute and yet somehow doesn't feel rushed in the slightest. Additionally, juxtaposing the wait for the gig with the wait for the food in the microwave is a magnificent demonstration of temporal relativity. Time passes differently in our perspectives depending on what we are doing. The nuanced contrast between the digital timer on the microwave and the analog clock on the wall reflects the subtle difference between time and timing, or the passage of time. Mark Slouka, one of my favorite authors, said it best: "A story is something large seen through a small window. A shard that suggests not only the shape of the pot from which it came, but the mind of the potter on the day that he made it." This film is such a shard in that respect. It's safe to say that more thought went into this 1 minute short than most major motion pictures that are made today. Bravo!
Still so great. I interpret it as being about how we are set free and can be most creative in those small moments where our mind isn’t preoccupied with something, but those moments are very sparing. I love it, so well done!
The concept, of 'second-arm being stuck', when he was JUST WAITING N WASTING TIME, being passive to Time n Life, was so triggering a TAKE OFF moment! And Later how he 'lived' that minute, was his flight of Creativity! Wow! Great conception .
This was amazing! I feel your pain man. I'm a bass player, just before the shows started up again I had surgery and had to wait another 3 months to jam. I loved this.
If you guys haven't noticed ,the youtube red bar that starts right when you start the video is in exact sync with clock's ticking and perfect sync with drum's tempo. Just so satisfying.
You guys are easily entertained and are the same people who comment that every video they watch is "amazing" and the "greatest ever." Get out of the house more....this was a guy waiting to play the drums after the pandemic...wow...breathtaking...mind blowing...earth shattering.
This makes me think of the waiting that we all engage in - waiting for better, for tomorrow, to feel free, to have more money, for someone to love us, to be ready, to heal etc. All various excuses to push life away and avoid the vulnerability of being fully human being, living and fully open to the possibility of pain which is a part of being human. Where does that come from? Why do we do it? What part of us does it? What pattern or loop may we be perpetuating?
Have been using short films on RUclips for analysis lessons as part of English language tutelage, and I can only think of one other short that comes even close to it (I think I've exhausted RUclips). Excellent concept and execution. There is so much to discuss with students given the short time; really fantastic writing and a wonderful production. Thank you!
What kind of questions do you ask your students? I was thinking of doing a narration type lesson where to improve speech and thinking on the spot, but analysis also sounds like an excelent idea! :D
@@paulasuzettebravo8597 It sounds nice! I guess it's all about tailoring it to your students. Well the premise of what I do is to pick a film which is entirely visual; no spoken word, which means the student has to work a harder. I ask them first of all if they enjoyed the film, and why, and then how it made them feel. I then ask them to describe what actually happens, what they noticed in particular and what they think the meaning behind the film is. If I feel they have missed something important or if there is some interesting details that invite deeper discussion, I ask more specific and probing questions. Depending on the student and how useful it is to them, I may also ask them to comment on the production values themselves, for example. I then ask them to question me in the same way I have questioned them and get as much information from me as possible. This way they get to experience both sides of the interaction and also gain examples of the same roles they have taken as 'played' by a native speaker.
Great message. It’s important to have a goal to make waiting through any obstacle - pandemic or anything else, - not seems like a worthless waste of time. Motivating yourself puts obstacles into better perspective.
The clock was broken to point of ticking back and forth, not progressing further, taking literally forever to show the proper passage a second. Talk about exceptional symbolism.
Just watched the winners announcement video and wanted to see what the competition was like. Damn good one right here! Gotta give props to anyone else who tried to win with some original music 👍
I take my hat off for the incredibly nice video you made. Both cinematic and its message. Looking forward to seeing your upcoming videos. Best regards from Sweden.
this was pretty cool. Sometimes a short wait can feel like an eternity and our minds begin to race and or daydream. He missed playing with drums. I'm glad he didn't get on his phone. Good job.
This is just awesome. One minute I've spent in a very pleasant way!! For me it is very good reminder, how i've spent my time alone, going through pandemic of 2020... Congrats!! ✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼👍🏼👍🏼😎😎😎
Seize the moment to pursue your passion no matter how short that moment may seem. If you keep going by time and what you assume you can or can’t do according to that time you miss out on doing what you truly love instead of doing what you think you have to do. When something causes the world to come to a halt (like the plandemic) that is the perfect “time” to tap in to your imagination and see what it is you would truly love to do. It takes less than a minute to follow your bliss.✨ This is BRILLIANT! Thank you for creating this!🙌🏼
Do not let people kill your passion...as long as you love what you do you will be out of time out of space out of responsibilities out of choice out of this world whatever happens do not bother you
Thank you so much to everyone that has shown interest in this short film :) Check out my new mini-series ruclips.net/video/kO7BlRMjVfY/видео.html I am so grateful to have your support!
That’s the consequences of the pandemic, we have no choice but to delay our plans, wait for the opportunity to come so that we can pursue things we want to do after the lockdown. It’s so brilliant, the way this short movie delivered its message in one minute. Be safe, it’s not our pleasure or choice to stay at home, but it’s our duty. Let’s your imagination entertains your soul. That’s all, peace.

Atleast he didn't check his phone. He was creative in his mind
And does that make it different ??
You should see what this cat can do while he is waiting for the toaster to pop or the kettle to boil.
🤣🤣
@@nikhilchaudhari5355 If you have to ask it means you have lost some of your own creativity. I hope not!
Dear @@annarodriguez9868 im not a creative person.
He is not waiting for the microwave. He is waiting for the pandemic to get over so he may resume pursing his passion for drums. Brilliant :)
i know right? Audiences are brilliant.
And that's gonna be a hell of a long wait..
🥺
In india its eternal.
Why would the pandemic prevent you of pursuing your passion of any instrument or anything at all? Does this plandemic prevent us from grocery shopping, drinking alcohol, taking a dump? No sir.
Thanks I’ll be here all night.
As both a drummer and filmmaker, this was an absolute blast to watch! Awesome job!
Thank you!
what was so special about it ?
a self claimed drummer and filmmaker?
if you are good you tell people
if you are great people will tell you.
This could have been the best Drums commercial ever made
When you have nothing to write in exams, your mind goes like this
True 😁😁
Lmao! That's f''''in' true !😂
Even when you sit for studies.🤣
Arthur's joke
Love the simplicity of the story. Lighting and cinematography are excellent. Top contender for sure :)
Thank you, Your work is awesome!
Letting the mind play and flow. Great cinema 🤙
Thank you!
As a drummer, I 100% agree with this one. Loved it.
❤
Lighting and color grading was amazing
Thank you!
Brilliant short film, didn't expect him to see him play the drums, complete surprise! great job :)
Thank you sir!

@@morphinefilms. You're quite welcome. It was well-deserved my friend. Best to you. I'm looking forward to viewing more of your work.
a shard is a piece of shit after you fart in your underwear . not a very nice compliment
That's a shart you were thinking of, LOL.

A charming film that deserves recognition. Brilliant premise and clever cinematography. I’m year 10, and this is a work of art.
An actual quality short film that understands colour grading and how to balance close up and wider shots!!!! Dubzzz + editing was on point
Thank you so much!
This was amazing! I feel your pain man. I'm a bass player, just before the shows started up again I had surgery and had to wait another 3 months to jam.

Wow! Great eyes and ears!
Being a musician I understand how there's a point you literally hear rhythm through everyday items like the ticking of a clock...
I have the Music in me, am a huge fan.
You guys are easily entertained and are the same people who comment that every video they watch is "amazing" and the "greatest ever." Get out of the house more....this was a guy waiting to play the drums after the pandemic...wow...breathtaking...mind blowing...earth shattering.
Creativity and a passion for something is worth the wait. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you!
This is too good for a one minute piece, such an amazing achievement!
I bet if this didn’t have a bunch of fake awards you wouldn’t call it an amazing achievement
@@lostvapor5211 ikr, it wasn't even anything special
This is so oddly beautiful and almost exactly how my imagination works! Love it.

The message is that rather than waiting you can choose to do anything you like, because when you do something you like time will pass, so much faster

How the video was marketed, that got it the traction!

Awesome! Thank you!
really good, thoroughly enjoyed this! I like the motions/pans throughout the film. Excellent lighting and color grading. The mood was spot on.
As a drummer myself, I FELT THAT!!!
The cinematography, sound, and lighting is TOP TIER. Very cool. Also the storytelling is excellent!!!
the time we designate for "waiting" are moments of joy and unabashed creativity that we let escape us.
Moral of the story "be creative in every little second u got"
I saw Converge live in 2003. PS: Amazingly directed. Love it!
I actually would like that minute back
The clock ticking is in the same beat as the drums, acting like a metronome. Brilliant!
Just watched the winners announcement video and wanted to see what the competition was like. Damn good one right here! Gotta give props to anyone else who tried to win with some original music 👍
Thanks! Your work is great! Too bad they didn’t do honorable mention this time. You and me might have more chance to show our work.
this is definitely up there as one of the best short films on RUclips
I take my hat off for the incredibly nice video you made. Both cinematic and its message. Looking forward to seeing your upcoming videos. Best regards from Sweden.
Fun video! Awesome, especially the cinematography! Super sweet drumming!
This is the longest 1 minute WAIT I had. Brilliantly executed.
this was pretty cool. Sometimes a short wait can feel like an eternity and our minds begin to race and or daydream. He missed playing with drums. I'm glad he didn't get on his phone. Good job.
I'm no movie expert but I do find this highly relatable :) thank goodness shows are back now.
I just love this! I've watched it multiple times now! Fantastic.
Like a 100 on your math test, this one sums things up perfectly.
Shortest short film I've ever seen and it was epic!
Drummer here and did NOT expect to see some epic drumming in this random short lol. Sounded sick.
When we're alone. We are just what we do before... we choose to think by what we do before.
Ohh man i was thinking of making something like that this was awesome!!! Amazing work 🔥🔥👌👌
Would hv been great if the microwave made an applause sound
Thank you :)
@@Dhruv.Wadhwa LOL
Loved it! Simple yet wonderfully made!
Perfect! I was wondering how you could tell a story in one minute. You nailed it. I can picture the story before and after this minute. Well done!
how did he actually managed to make a minute feel like an eternity?... IN THE BEST OF THE SENSES!!!
you Nailed it, bro
Loved this! This is an incredible short film!
Well done! I'm glad you got to flex your creative skills during the quarentine.
Hey! Thank you! yea If not now when right?
Im a drummer and when he started playing on the table you can really tell this actor is ACTUALLY a drummer
This is just awesome. One minute I've spent in a very pleasant way!! For me it is very good reminder, how i've spent my time alone, going through pandemic of 2020... Congrats!! ✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼👍🏼👍🏼😎😎😎
Absolutely nailed it. This deserves a million views.
It's at a million now
Superb lighting and editing.Look forward to seeing more of your work
A passion that is never dead. Wonderful.
That was awesome. I remember having that exact feeling when I was younger. Social media has ruined the imagination of these young kids.
Solid, very solid piece, perfect blending of complimentary components. Love the non r-rated vibe.
This was cool man, well done! Thanks for sharing with us :) God bless you!
Thank you!
If this was "award-winning", there must not have been that many entries...

Wow this was amazing, I loved the cuts!!

Brilliant minute with deep and divers emotions!

Every drummer on earth knows how this feels.
The sound is what makes this work. Incredible sound work.

I am pleasantly surprised and found this really enjoyable, there's a lot one can take from it
Like what?
@@paritosharya4398 You don't need big runtime to tell a relatable story.
