Ok. I am currently in preparation to photograph Veronica A. at the take your time exhibit on display at the museum (hopefully that'll be allowed) I had planned to do it today, but complications with other work interfered. Hopefully this will happen within the next 12 days or else I intend to abandon the project completely.

I watched it twice, once for pure enjoyment and once for scrutiny.
This is so wonderful! It had me smiling the whole time and humming a bit too! Although, at points you had me laughing for all of the wrong reasons.
For example: the water fountain seen was inexplicably ridiculous, and if you are desperate to keep it you may play with the colors.
I love the cupcake shots, the flowers, and I positively adore the part where you are walking and looking down at the ground, although i think you linger at the window shadow for a few seconds too long.
Which brings me to my next order of business, lingering.
I understand that you may want to start slow at the beginning, but you had a few shots that dragged on past their welcome. The opening scene of the candle is exquisite, but you might want to cut it down a bit because it gets a little frustrating. Also, there is a time in which the screen is completely black, what gives? I wanted the video to get going, it refused, so i punched it in the stomach.
Lastly, you may choose to end on a more powerful image than your ceiling fan.
All in all, I was impressed. Due to your heavy restrictions, you have done exceedingly well and made a marvelous little short.
Though, with a few tweaks, shuffling, and maybe even a few more shots this little short could be utter perfection and yummy-ness.
