RE: Sneak Peek at new Project!

I would recommend watching more music videos maj_barnes, because music videos are normally fast paced with many shots, while this draws too much on shots. You could do more on the person in the car, from different angles within it.

This runs more like a movie than a MV.

This was well shot, well acted and well put together. I really liked it, very dark and only became clear at the end. With your name I thought she was a Vampire!

Thank you. I have not thought that far ahead, but it would probably be a good idea. I will also probably archive news and have links to them on the News page.

Try doing a small sketch showing a Voodoo Doll and the person it is effecting.

RE: Help me Premiere buffs!

Go on the net and do a search for Adobe Premiere 6.0 or 6.5 forums and see if anyone else has had that problem and how they got around it.
You could always look for a patch.
And, as a last option, you could try formating your Hard Drive. There is obviously something that it doesn't like.

I did not find it that bad at all. I thought it was OK. There was a story, all be it basic, but non the less it had a story to it. The Good: Screen play was interesting, with some good shots. Acting was OK. The Bad: Not your music, and it didn't really fit the film anyway. This is a start. Just need...

RE: The Salesman - 2nd place film in 48hr challenge

Great. Really good fun as always. But that may be why you didn't win, as it wasn't totally horror, it was more a spoof horror.

Considering that was made in 48 hours it was excellent. The crowning moment - head being ripped off normal bloke.

Well done boys.

First off, well done. I found this very easy to watch, where some amateur films are sometimes a chore to get through, this flowed by. The Good: This had a nice pace to it. So, nice editing. It looked classy, from the props to the way it was shot really gave it a good feel, and an accurate feel. The ...

RE: Re: RE: Godfather Sonny

As much as this scene is meant to disgust people in the total lack of respect they have for life, I love the shot of the ganster standing over him and proceeding to mow across him one last time with the Tommy Gun, as if just making sure he is dead. Wonderful!
