      You guys should consider shooting on real film and then converting it to digital.
      It looks way too much like you were filmed individually in front of a green screen and then spliced together.

    Congrats Emma, and congrats PMJ for continuing to maintain the depth and integrity of your project. So hard to find legitimate art among music that's made these days.
