That was better than some of the others you've made. Again, if you're going to take the time to add in gunshot sounds why not add in fight sounds while you're at it? I'm still waiting for a full length movie from you. If you decide to keep doing these fight scenes, do a little more work on your edit...

www.cushmanpaintball.com sells resin casts, although epsilon has told me that the casts are made of ABS plastic. Here's the link for the Thompson. http://www.cushmanpaintball.com/replicathompson.html I'm not sure if they ship to the UK, but the gun is a lot less than 220 Quid. Good Luck. I'd PM epsi...

RE: Windscreen

The mic is covered by a little plastic piece. I'm going to pull that off and see if I can find anything. Or maybe I should read the manual first.

Steering away from this feud for a second, I think it was pretty good. I agree with Freed in that it was pretty much a chase scene, but that's pretty much what the Vietnam War was; running and shooting, chaotic jungle warfare. I think that you could have eased up a lot on the jerking camera, it was ...

Windscreen

My Sony DCRTRV250's microphone, which is located about half an inch under the lens, picks up an unusual amount of wind. I was thinking of attaching a foam vocal mic screen to it. Would this work? Any other ideas? Also, I was looking for a mic out port on the camera but couldn't find one. The camera'...

RE: Cheap / Budget Digital Camcorder

I have a Sony DCRTRV250 which is one of the cheapest video cameras out there. The camera retails for around $300, but I bought mine on eBay for $125. For the price it's a great camera. The quality is OK and capturing is easy. If most of what you're filming is skateboarding, it's a good camera. If yo...

That was awesome. I think that the in-car sound was a bit harsh and could easily have been muted. Also, I didn't think that end bit really worked because the journalist character wasn't a very central character in the movie. Overall I liked it. The pictures of the MOLLE's you posted a while ago were...

Whoah, where the hell did the staff come from? It's not there in one shot and it's in the next. Doesn't really make sense.

RE: Looking for M60

Go here. The unbuilt kit is $75. I think it's a resin cast. If you're lazy, the built gun is still under $300. I think it looks pretty good. Copy and paste the link: http://www.cushmanpaintball.com/M60.html

I have a question. I noticed that in your various training fims, you always seem to be spinning around and shooting. Why? It seems you always know that something is lurking just behind you.

I agree. A Beretta is a much better choice and, in my opinion, looks much cooler. USP's are also good.

Look around more on Kapowwe. I'm sure they'd have some unholstered Desert Eagles. They're not that hard to find.

I agree with ctbullet; the deaths were pretty lame. Also, the shooting didn't make sense. I saw one German the whole movie yet there was tons of gunfire. The editing wasn't great, but overall, I liked it.
