Hi Matt, known you a while but new to this forum : )
Congratulations on finally finishing Hollow Point, I remember you talking about it when we swapped films ages ago. Can't wait to see it.

for all the hype that everyone said about it, i was thorougly disappointed. Yes, the camera angles were cool and whatnot, but that explosion? See there's things an amateur director should put in a film that are worthwhile and that was definitely not worthwhile. It was sick to look at, and replaying the whole thing again when rewinding..idk about that it just wen ton and on.. many of the actors lines were just so dry, no emphasis, no emotion. I just thought it was a poor film. If you want a film, I'll show you a film. I'm 17 years old and my friend and I have made better films when we were 15

I had to wait until I got DSL and I finally did. I liked this movie it had a good story plot and I enjoyed how it rewinds to reveal more of the story. The only thing in particular I didn't like were the sound effects. I don't know if it was the compression but the sound effects sounded like muffled 8-BIT quality. All in all good movie Matt and like said earlier lets not hope your next will take a long time to come out.
I enjoyed it very much. The progress between GUTS, MTL and Hollow Point is huge. I say huts off since making a movie without a budget does not only mean to have a uber idea and cool SFX, but also to get your team of actors etc. together and keep them together until the project is complete, and this dear movie makers is VERY hard. There ain't no contracts you can use to force people to appear on the set, all you can do is try to keep good vibes in the team.
Also the cutting rithm and editing in general is much better now. I especially like the scenes on the stairways in the house, pretty pro IMHO. The Intro could be a bit more spectacular, but it doesn't really matter.
I was also impressed by the Guns (the SIG one), looks pretty real when fired.
Keep up the good work, competiting hollywood is just around the corner.

That was a SIG Sauer P228 BB gun. Although you can barely notice I followed the advice of someone here (can't remember who) and edited a single frame where I cut-n-pasted the recoil in Paintshop Pro. The flash was just good-old Premiere lens flare. Never got around to worrying about shell cases.I was also impressed by the Guns (the SIG one), looks pretty real when fired.
The recoil is an effect where you don't notice it .... but it just looks better with it than without it.
