I know you cant fix any the problems but here is what i found First it seems more like a Action/Horror Part 1 The first death seems really fake the kid is smiling and the way the killer kills his is by pushing him down. Sound effects did not fit. Why did the kid see him be behind the stairs he was c...

that was pretty good, there are some problems but good none theless. Hope your finish product will be good too. Some of the effects were good and i was curious how you did them.

Wwo that was good, I dont see why people are putting down the music at the beginning. Ya I don't like it(not my type of music) but it fits. Come on look at rob zombies films and a few others they had music just like this. Basicly im saying it fits and works. I would say more but everyone else beat m...

This is more of a capture question but I put it under editing since I was wondering if it can be done while editing too. Is there any way to get rid of Grain and Noise from film. I went on the adobe website and they have a upgrade to get rid of grain and noise from a third party but for the actual b...

Wow lucky for me im working wih a few other people and we are saving up for cameras. My only problem is what if the people i work with fall through and dont want to do it anymore or the cameras we get die after the waranty. You always have back up plans for everything lol. I also heard nearme theres...

wow that was pretty good, the only draw back i had was the tv and how it was movied it looked kinda fake. But that is not a big deal i understand you have limitations. My other draw back was also said above so dont need to repost what was already said. In my opinion it was really good. i enjoyed it ...

oh wow thx ill try firewire, what does a firewire cable look like and how do i know if my camera can use it.

When im trying to capture with Premiere Pro from my Sony DCR HC36 it wont show on the capture screen and says the camera is offline. Is there any way to fix this so i can capture the video with premiere. Which settings do i have to do or upgrades do i have to do. I check the adobe website and they d...

Ive been having trouble lately with importanting videos into premiere from saved videos from elements. At first I thought it was after i put the video into premire to edit but when impoted a new video and played it before putting it in the storyboard it still didnt go together. The video went fsater...

ya the first part was shaking but its the way it was ment to look from what i saw. If you watch ther est which alot didnt but your trying to help. It was way better after the beginning.

Please explain what yo umean by you need footage of zombies. Is it so you can make your own zombie later on or use it in your movie. If its to use in your movie I saw you just make them yourself. Its not hard, If your going for freshly dead just killed. All you do is put blood on the spot where it w...

just buy a blue light bulb if its to bright put a sheet or something to dim it.

That wasn't bad at all some shots werent the best like the scene at the fence. Im guessing the zombies were supose to be there but yet you couldnt see them, Alot of the special effects werent great like no blood when biting or nothing. THe only good sound effect was the zombie noise. Also how did he...

I dont think it was a bad trailer, but the films rhys are just a few horror movies. IF you want some good horror movies watch halloween and the friday the thirteen movies. But out of truthfulness your bodies need to be more gruesome. Since the killer uses a blade, screaming is important but dont mak...

wow that wasnt bad at all. Just a few tips for future films you may or may not know these. Get a Tripod it will make shots way more steady and less shacky. Maybe up the quality of the video some scenes i couldnt make out and also find away to either have the actors speak louder or I advice to get a ...

WEll the trail and background image distortion only happened on pre but on elements everyt hing is perfect. I also took a video i exported from elements and put it on premiere this could have been the problem. But my main concern is the best setttings for exportation for premiere pro so i can get it...
