    Looks like short part from a full feature film. Nice music, good acting professional-like. Maybe you should make few other shorts about the same story with same actors and put them together into longer film? Interesting what happens next to them.

    A rode NTG3 microphone (on a boom) and recording onto a Zoom H4n recording device.

    cool thanks :)

    I'm just researching audio equipment, but its all so damn expensive. i have a H2 (which has no XLR input) but the boom mic and pole cost so much.

    Well if you are on a budget I'd recomend the H4n recorder. You'll get one at about €250. It's amazing for the price.

    Nice short.

    Partick is always great at his job.

    Just out of curiousity does the GHI have auto-focus when shooting video?

    Quality looks good.

    I know it was really just an acting exercise/equipment test and it works as that. Looks well - good acting, could have done with some wider shots though - spends too much time right up in their faces for me.

    The script is film school 101 though.

    Ending
    As soon as they started talking I knew a pregnancy would be revealed in the end
