Thanks for all the comments guys!

Just to answer some questions, I actually put the american flag in there because it happened to America, and George Bush is in there because he was the president at the time, so I thought it was necessary. Anyway, thanks guys!

Wow, I didn't think of all of that...I was just trying to tell a story.

I had some extra time, so I made a september 11th tribute video titled "A Cruel Place". It's about 3 and a half minutes long. Low Quality WMV - http://brokenstickproductions.com/patrick/downloads/acruelplace.wmv High Quality WMV - http://brokenstickproductions.com/patrick/downloads/acruelp...

lol

It was alright, nicely put together.

Supreme job. I thought the acting could have been a tad bit better, but with the costumes and supreme editing it totally made up for it. Supreme. 3 and a half stars.

In my honest opinion, the movie was horrible. It had bad editing, and bad sound quality. All in all, just not very good. Sorry.

Alright, to market my latest film, I made a bunch of copies on DVD, called up my friend Josh who knows EVERYONE in the general vacinity, and we went out and gave away FREE copies! Even if the people weren't home we just left it on their doorsteps. I put a business card inside the cover of each one, ...

For the most part it was cool, you could have used multiple angles in the scene where the 2 guys are talking on the steps, but for the most part it was good.

All time supreme comedy!

Weird, and could have made some better cuts, but overall good job.

lol

I think I'd rather just take the chance of someone stealing my work and claiming it as their own, because in the end, I know that I'm the real owner, and anything I put up on my website is priceless.

Oh.....The version I have of that movie is taped off tv.....lol

It was during the first test when the dudes were fighting, at least I thought I heard one of the guys say it.....lol

Out of like 5 candidates I made it down to the final ballot, and I was against a chick, so of course I lost.....She pretty much copied off of everything I did. See everyone copied everything I did, so my stuff wasn't special anymore, but I bet if I could run again I could beat her, but its all good,...

I would say I not only use photoshop for effects, but I also use it just to play with and like Truggy said change titles of things. Like when I was running for class persident, I took a bunch of movie posters and changed the names so they would benefit me. Also, photoshop is pretty much the only ado...

I don't understand why everyone is against lighting firecrackers off on their bodies! It's super simple. I've done it tons of times and I've never been injured, so prolly stop your whining and just light up.

I honestly don't think they would say "s-h-i-t" in an Indiana Jones movie......but thats just me.

Zoom in while moving the camera backwards, or vice versa.

LoL.......Driven to Violence is mostly done, we just need a location to film our last scene because nobody wants to let us bring 15 guys on their property and light firecrackers off inside a building.....so thats been kinda the dilemma on that movie.....other than that its pretty much finished.

Alright, my friend Josh is a super awesome basketball player, so today we decided to make a promotional basketball video for him. It's basically like a trailer for a basketball movie er something like that.....anyway...enjoy! Oh, and feedback is appreciated. WMV (3Mb) - http://brokenstickproductions...
