----------------------------------------------- Really enjoyed making this game! I've realized my mistakes and I'm going to make a post-compo version.

Guys, thank you so much! As I stated before, I will be making a post-compo version. Be sure to follow me for progress pics and such!
I will make a blog post later, I really need to go to bed, haha. Thanks again!
Very neat take on the theme! It was extremely fun (and the scenes were pretty funny too) to play as the cameraman, although sometimes it felt like the shot detection was somewhat off. I did better on my second run though, so maybe it was just me. Good work!
That was pretty amazing. I would recommend putting in a little more audio, I think a nice sound when you did good and a bad sound when you did bad would be great. Just to notify you're on the next part. The rest was really great.
Very fun and original game :) I had a minor technical problem on OSX though (even after allowing the game in my security settings): LSOpenURLsWithRole() failed with error -10810 for the file ~/Downloads/OneTake/OneTake.app.
This command solved the problem: chmod +x OneTake.app/Contents/MacOS/hox
Oh man, I absolutely love this. Super. Really innovative and exciting. I would love to see a full-fledged based on this concept, it has so much potential!
This is another game I was really looking forward to, very innovative use of the theme, and definitely got scope to continue developing into a full game.
Very very nice game. Awesome concept and it fits the theme perfectly! There are so many possibilities with this mechanic and this game shows the basics with good humor.
First time playing this I missed a lot of things, since I didn't knew they were there (and me chaotically looking around what is meant). It would've be nice to have some more queues what comes where + randomized events. That said, still a great game!
Hey man, the zip for MacOSX seems to be corrupt. I downloaded it two times, both won't work. When you fix it, please let me know, I'd like to play your game.
Very good game. Great style and really great interpretation of the theme. Some of the challenges were pretty picky, so maybe it could use an indication of why you're a little off. Really enjoyed it, good work!
Very original game, but I didn't really get how it links with the theme. Anyway, I loved the art and gameplay with the mouse point and scroll, very fun.
Very original and innovative game, but it connects very loosely with the theme. The connection comes only through the name, but the gameplay itself hasn't much connection with it.

This idea is really great. The graphics do their job, the dialogs are amusing - I laughed. Sadly, your condition when something is filmed correctly is a bit too restrictive: sometimes, I had the feeling, that I'm doing it right and it didn't count.
Mediafile is a bad way to host your downloads. I keep getting pop-ups. *sigh* Such a great game. I love the graphics. Sounds are nice, game was well executed. Keep it up!

@MrBlade What kind of pop-ups? I'm sorry it bothers you. It really works great for me as an uploader.
Outstanding. The concept was incredibly original and executed flawlessly. The humour of the director's instructions and comments were excellent throughout.
Having seen some gifs of the game before playing it my expectations were high, luckily I wasn't let down.
Ahhhh! This game is fantastic! Simple, funny and well polished! I wish there was more sound effects, and maybe another level or two. This would make for a great post-compo game!
This is fantastic! I can honestly say I have never played or seen a game that works like this. I think you have a good contender for a winner in this competition.
Really nice game idea, and well executed. As others have said: the "shot detection" was a little unfair at times, but that didn't hurt the experience too much!
Wow, this is so awesome... The idea is epic and the game is well executed. Definetly one of the best games I've seen. Reminds me a bit of McPixel, but I don't know why... Great work!
Great art, fantastic take on the theme, and a really fun game overall! Just a couple of issues with the camera detection. I wish you could have restarted individual levels.
Haha, awesome! Great use of the theme and really novel, though I really hoped it was going to mock me by showing me the horrible mess of a film that I had made a the end of each take. :D
Really nice concept, and pretty fun :), though a couple of times I felt like I was doing right and the game said I wasn't D: I could see it as a full game with more levels and a couple of new mechanics (like choosing what to show at some point or some travelings or something like this), good luck with it!
WOW. Great job! Would love to have sound give some kind of indication of how well you're doing. Maybe the director could yell at you if you're doing the wrong thing? Also, a replay showing your movies at the end would really make the experience complete.

I love this. 17/21 so far. Looking forward to the post compo version! Good job here!
Very clever! I played it through twice just to see how the endings would be different for the last sentence in the newspaper. I would have loved an extra moment to read what the first instruction ones before the scene began - it was usually the most stressful.
I really like this game. Love the idea of filming a scene and getting cues. Sometimes I felt that I was performing the task and still failed. Seemed the fail conditions were pretty strict and the cues were maybe to ambiguous for the strict nature of the fail condition? Either way, one of my favorites so far!
Very interesting idea! There were a few moments where I was sure I got the correct shot, but it still said I failed them. However, my zoom work was weird (no mouse, so I had to use a trackpad that has poor scrolling; a keyboard alternative for zooming would have been nice) so that might've led to some failures when I thought I had decent shots. Either way, I really liked the game.
Oh man those graphics are so good, it would be great if you made this into a full game!

I was really looking forward to playing this! (So glad I finally got around to it :P) It was just as fun as I expected it to be, and I really love the mechanic and idea around it. I sort of agree with others in that it is loosely based off of the theme since you're taking multiple shots (but yes, one chance per criteria!), but I still loved it a lot either way. It was wonderful! Great work!
Best choice of theme I've seen so far, and the execution was just as good as it looked. A few of the criteria I just couldn't get right (especially showing the zebra crossing - do I show just the edge or the whole thing?). I think the game's taught me that I'm not cut out to be a cameraman!
fantastic! i would happily pay money for a game like this. the gameplay felt fresh and intuitive, AND i had the urge to play through it multiple times to perfect each scene.
my only gripe is the lack of sound effects. some camera shutter FX would have added to the overall atmosphere.
Incredibly fun. Great, original concept for a game. I've never played anything like this. I couldn't play the game well at all using a trackpad, but with a proper mouse and scroll wheel this would be a lot of fun. One thing that I would have really liked was the director's instructions to be audible, so that I had a better understanding of when the cues were coming up for the next shot. Reading them off to the side was not as intuitive for me. Great job overall!
Crashes after the Sheepolution and Love logos show up. Do I need to have a certain version of LOVE installed? My OpenGL drivers are a little messed up, could that be breaking it?

@poolshoes Never heard of anyone having that problem before. It's made with LÖVE 0.8.0 , so you cant run it with 0.9.0

What isn't an innovation in this game? Loved the whole experience. Waiting for new stuff!
Great work!

@Empireindustries
You're right. I should have added a small sound effect for that.
@flatgub and leafo
Try zooming on some more. And try to get them in the center of the screen. But I agree that some detection could be done better.
I had a minor technical problem on OSX though (even after allowing the game in my security settings):
LSOpenURLsWithRole() failed with error -10810 for the file ~/Downloads/OneTake/OneTake.app.
This command solved the problem:
chmod +x OneTake.app/Contents/MacOS/hox
Should be fixed now, thanks.

You actually got to add two more scenes, that was fast :y
the zip for MacOSX seems to be corrupt. I downloaded it two times, both won't work. When you fix it, please let me know, I'd like to play your game.
Like I had the time for that :P
@FrozenCow
I just made a post mortem
http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/2013/12/16/one-take-post-mortem/
I'm planning on making a full version of this game. Or at least with this concept.
@Everyone else
Thanks for the comments once again!
Thanks for letting me know. The LÖVE forums have helped me with the Mac version, it should be fixed now.
Anyway, I loved the art and gameplay with the mouse point and scroll, very fun.

You only get one take!
There were a few cases where I did not agree with the detection's ruling, but whatever.
What kind of pop-ups? I'm sorry it bothers you. It really works great for me as an uploader.
Having seen some gifs of the game before playing it my expectations were high, luckily I wasn't let down.
Really nice work and a clever use of the theme.
Small issue: The game doesn't seem to have an exit function.
I tried ESC and ALT+F4 but in the end had to shut it down in the task manager.
Hey thanks for letting me know! You can now quit with ESC, and added Fullscreen with F4. No gameplay changes or anything else changed of course.
@Everyone else
Thanks for the feedback! I'm really glad you're all enjoying my game!
A pity, that the detection what's on camera can be wonky some times ...
The idea is epic and the game is well executed.
Definetly one of the best games I've seen.
Reminds me a bit of McPixel, but I don't know why...
Great work!
I could see it as a full game with more levels and a couple of new mechanics (like choosing what to show at some point or some travelings or something like this), good luck with it!
Gameplay is very innovative. But I don't learn English good so its hard for me understand some words and action quick.
It's random :P
my only gripe is the lack of sound effects. some camera shutter FX would have added to the overall atmosphere.
