For the time this film was conceived in, Blinded is a very well paced and very well executed short. It fit perfectly for what the filmmaker was attempting to accomplish; a short written, filmed, and edited in 24 hours. On the technical aspect of things, there was a consciousness of transitions in audio. You can visualize where the cuts were because of the difference in background noise. This is to be expected in a short done in such a small amount of time, however it is still noticeable. Where the short lacked in technicalities, it made up for in pure idea. The notion of a woman hiring a PI to spy on her husband seems so simple and overdone, yet here it is with a fresh feel and an engaging timeline. It switched seamlessly between the investigation and the conclusion, bringing the short to a level of creative professionalism. Blinded is a wonderful example young filmmakers should look to; small budget, small crew, small cast, and still entirely well-done and successful.
