Looks really nice! Lighting looks fantastic! The only thing I dislike is the clone views, they both look too alike.

You Ain't Hardest (300 Type Trailer)

Newest project: it's the last movie in the You Ain't Hard Trilogy. So far we've had 2 filming days and little under a half is completed: so I went ahead and did a trailer since everyone has been asking for one. I went ahead and copied the 300 teaser trailer to the dot: had alittle fun doing the titl...

Put it simply. I copied the slide into a new layer, and pulled it back. Then erased the slide in front so what slide is left appears to be the barrel.

The three frames were the frames that had the slide blown back. I been playing around with the amount that I should have (one is a no go, you won't notice it): I've been doing an AK47 going in bursts for the charging handle to be blown back, I've been having it go back for two frames (since in my gu...

Here's one I did a while ago: made a new layer with the slide pulled back and just clone brushed the slide away to give the appearence of a barrel. Of course this is high contrast colors so it wouldn't really matter too much on what the barrel is made off. Three frames in total (skip to the end of t...

but as always some awful aiming
:D You know, it wasn't really aim: just airsoft guns shoot a real bullet every fifth round. So it was kinda hard.

Totally Gay Shootout (Part 2)

We got bored again, well not really. We were going to film a scene for a movie but one of the actors (also the person whose house we were going to use) got busy: so we went and did some stuff. You don't really have to tear this apart too bad: I already know it sucks. We wanted to mess around with li...

RE: How many DV Tapes do you have?

I have around 10 or so, there's more around my room hiding everywhere. Most are accumulated by people forgetting them in a camera at school and me going into the bin and taking them all. I record over all of them (which at times I really regret).

RE: "The Insider" Lenses?

I thought the same thing, but if you notice the head towards the left. The blur contours to the head: so that made me think lense; unless they went into major rotoscoping.

"The Insider" Lenses?

There are a few scenes in the movie "The Insider" (if you haven't seen it, it's amazing) that looks like they used a very odd lense. It creates the appearence that the sides of the frame are in focus but the middle is out of focus. I was wondering if anyone knows how they may have done thi...

The lighting was great, I loved that. When I saw the first shot: I said that looks pretty damn good. At times I thought it was a bit too bright (but that's just me). Camera angles were good and bad; I thought most were too far away. The edit from the pan (girl to guy) to the shot of the girl seemed ...
