    Congratulations to you Adrake and the crew on 'Run'. I loved, it got my attention! I watched to the end and isn't that what we're all about, making them watch, bringing them in, keeping them there.

    Hell, I'll admit it, I even watched it a few times (looking, scrutinising). Is there an outfit change near the end? Reason? Planned? Symbolic? Etc...

    What's the back story on the 'little dog' thing that appears near the end? Kind of freaky, but obscure. Is it a puppet? Oh, and did you really jump off the cliff?

    Where was this filmed? Looks like a cool place to go camping!

    I think there's always a back story, so I'm keen to know the inspiration, the machinations, the crew etc. Well done to your crew, can see a lot of work went into everything. Would love to know more about everyone, what inspired the video, the idea, skill bases etc etc.

    I was sitting there watching the clip and thinking, mmmm…who was doing the filming? Did he run with you, (is the runner actually Adam?) or is that talent? Did you guys use a steadi cam? How did you achieve the FX? Fill me in! Oh, and I also liked the colouring, fresh crisp greens, could almost touch the leaves and feel the water rushing over me!

    The music though it be the theme for the 'comp', was not my main focus when I watched your work.

    Again, congrats to you Adrake and crew!

    Now in the Hall of Fame…and I so want to get there myself.

    You had some worthy competitors, 'Cars' animation Yeah! And I also want to mention how much I loved the fish bowl video La Mer - animation etc. So cooool! The song was haunting and stayed on my mind. I'll put up a separate post for that.

    Anyway, brilliant!!!!!!!

    My work is nearly complete so look for me in the next comp! (providing it fits with my subject/theme etc). Hopefully, it will give you a 'run' for the money (no pun intended)!

    Look forward to seeing more of your work. Using my envy to rise to the challenge!

    Cheers to all

    Thank you for all your encouraging words and congrats! No back story on the dog. He was cute and funny in his little outfit so we threw him in there to have me running from him. He was a real dog, he is my parents peekapoo. I did jump off the cliff. It was about 50-60 feet. I did it about 6 or 7 times to get the shot. This is sligo bluffs in Sparta, TN. The guy who was filming was actually just sitting on the end of a 4-wheeler with no steady cam. He was holding it. He obviously had a very steady hand. He did a great job! I was the runner for the whole day and did not have a fill in. Thanks for all your questions and your support! God bless!
