get those votes in people! when does the poll end?

Heres mine. its called "New Problems" "New Problems" Tyler walks past a window in his lounge room, when he spots a man walking to his front door. He stands at the window watching the man when he sees a slightly different version of himself about to confront him. Almost as soon as...

please please please can we have one more week? just one week. me and rhys are currently int he middle of writing one and i really want to submit it.
it would be much appreciated.

well i just bought a 250gb external hard-drive today so i now feel a little more safe about my stuff.

yes. simply cos its the only computer ive got, if i had enough money id have one for my stuff and one for my video editing. a bit over a year ago i was just getting into movies and i used to make these shitty little skits, but i had heaps of them and then the god-damn computer crashed and i lost the...

okay this has probably been already said but im not screwed to go read everyones posts.
i got a pretty good effect when i simply sprayed the hose infront of the camera using that hose head thats sort a like a shower cap, just wet everything around the set so it looks like it is raining.

yeh well the deadline is for the scripts to be entered, and then we need to vote, and then ther'll be another daedline for us to make the film. well the contest doesn't have to be confined to the span of a mouth it can take as long as we want it to. too true. then after we all decide that theres bee...

i was thinking longer than that, cos thats still only an extra week. 1st of august anyone?

does anyone else agree that we should extend the deadline to probably the end of this month? then we get heaps more scripts (hopefully) and heaps more variety.
i think i might have a shot at writing one.

well i didnt understand that you were intending to make an actual film with them i thought you were just trying out cloning.

10mb for 9 seconds? WTF?

are you saying thats big? or small? cos either way its not that amazing.
anyway yeh thats pretty good cloning there, could do with better gunshots and muzle flashes. you hardly even need to clone them tho, cos theyve got balaclavas on.

we need F.F.F to write agood short script, i like your scripts

The killer stares for a second. He brings his gun out again. You see him point it at the what-seems-to-be dead body and fires a second round as it cuts to black. not just a little bit cliche rhys? as soon as you started explaining wat he could've done i just knew you were gonna say that. good job, ...

there is not just the time limit, it cannot include things that require special effects, people can add special effects into their movies by all means, just dont demand it in the script. and also dosnt require a specificly hard locations, difficult props or costumes. basically it has to be simple, a...

who says its official, thats the only suggestion so far, 5-10min is probably too long for just a quick one for a comp

yeh see thats a good title cos its open to a massive range of ideas and lets people think freely, it could be any genre pretty much, comedy, horror, action. but still stays within certain confinements. as opposed to "the guy who gos and kills this other dude for revenge"

i vote general, but i wouldnt wanna just make a trailer. lets make it so we agree on simply a title, like they dis in on the lot, such as "out of time". so everyone should just suggest random (but sensible) title, then we make a poll on it, then we make a 1-2 min short from that title with...

it looks like theres i sperm swimming on your logo

try extending the clip, or mirroring/grading the footage so it's different to what you uploaded last time yeh im trying that, i re-exported it at a slightly different quality and name. still uploading. I had one video taken down, but it had actual footage of people dead and being killed. but thats ...

god-damit i just posted this post and then intended to make another and delete this one. but just realised that on matthawkins you can only delete your most recent post.
delete this one please?

yeh i would've been perfectly happy if they simply put it as 18+, i can understand that. but completely take it off? c'mon.

im not exactly quite sure what topic this belongs in but change it to the right one if nescesary please. my movie with just random blood fx has been taken off youtube for "content inapropriate". has this happened to anyone else? i mean sure, its a pretty bloody clip. but theres thousands o...

Is the movie serious or do you like to run around with a camera with a sped up voice? i think thats simply a "pre-pubescent" voice. it's sh*t, i dont get it. if its meant to be funny its not. if its meant to be cool its not. i dunno what you were trying to achieve but whatever it was you ...

well if their email address is zacpeterjohnstonlivesat96mainstreetulverstonetasmaniaaustraliaandhegoestoulverstonehighschoolanddoeskungfuclassesmondayat6oclocktuesdayat7andfridayat6@hotmail.com then yeh i guess you can

i agree. i think we should see who can travel around the world fastest wearing a clown suit while whistling old mcdonald had a farm.
no?
