Sci-fi shorts are often a proving ground for a CGI oriented crowd, but this film presents something really different. At first, I was doubtful about its length (13 minutes for a short piece is a lot of time) and its ability
to hold my attention. But, only after the first two minutes I was
hooked. Mis-Drop uses the well known "planetary drop" scenario, which is a staple
of the military science fiction genre, and does it with a twist that involves a
clever new perspective point. Thanks to good writing, the thing which impressed me the most was the fact that the background chatter provided an awesome reference frame for the entire piece by setting the atmosphere as well as the dynamic moments in the plot. Ferand Peek did a great job with this piece.
