Pinnacle font. My only weakness!

Welcome back, guys. I appreciate your investment of a money-printing leprechaun to this story; that alone made this entry worthwhile. ;)

Your acting has improved, and I actually could buy the story moving on from here. You had some funny shots in there, like the slow motion bank notice moving in for the hand-off. But I really disowned the whole entry at the end when we didn't actually get to a believable bank (I know, shooting a robbery in a bank can be hard, but since you didn't actually show guns or anything, you might've at least gotten to an office or something). And, of course, the montage of progressively goofy face-shots, while silly, doesn't bolster the film for the better.

Still, you edited something together that pushed the story forward and didn't follow the pre-expected mold, and you also worked a piece of music that fit nicely. Cool concept and effects. Best of luck!

If I were you (and I'm not, but...), I'd also disown that "ruins Rootclip" thing you keep getting stuck with. Whether people think you are or not, I wouldn't embrace it. There's no reason you should get held with that; you're as much a competitor here (and regular supporter of the site) as most of the other submitters taking part. That's just my personal advice to you, take it or leave it. But I'd prefer to see you leave that behind on your next submission and maybe embrace the concept that you're actually HELPING Rootclip by entering videos. :/

not the best rootclip I've seen but I agree about what you said at the end

I have to say that this made me laugh a couple of times. I get the humor in this. I like the extreme letter passing and the "Oh ho hooooo... my money makin' leprechaun". Haha. The face in the end with the ski mask also made me laugh. Anything that makes me laugh at least 3 times is good. :) I would suggest framing your actors by using the rule of thirds. That goes a long way. Do a little searching for it and play around with it and you will get some interesting shots. Overall this was the only one that made me laugh and I like it just for that. Keep it up!

I love you dudes sense of humor! This made me laugh a lot, I'm diggin it! I'm looking forward to more from you guys, once y'all have your computer together, if you amped up the production value and kept the absurd humor your stuff would be mint, the type of stuff that goes viral!
