I made this little movie 2 years ago!!!!!
Yeh um, this is very old, and the bad camering was done on perpus (its too hard to remember to spell). This has our first special effect in it (well sorta) where he looks like he falls off the balcony.
Almost forgot, heres the link:

Its alright, you could do with some music which doesn't have vocals, it makes hearing what they say very difficult. You could almost do with one or two shots which aren't POVs like after he jumps a shot from under the balcony looking up at the other dude looking down. I liked the shot where the camera looks out of the window and sees the body on the ground, that one worked well, but unfortunatly it swung downwards and we got to see the carpet on the stairs for a bit, which was odd.

What sort of camera effect were you looking for exactly? A POV of the third person who was there or something different? If you do plan to use this in the future, don't do it too much, no longer than the film you've just done. Its atmospheric but isnt the easiest thing to watch (like fight scenes in the dark). Oh yeah, you need to tie the dog up somewhere when you're filming, lol it seems to be everywhere in your staff (unless im mistaken).

What VOR said ^

I don't know what to say. That wasn't even a movie, looked like a clip from a bad kids movie.

Post some movies that you've made recently that DON'T need explanations on why they are so bad. Also you should be the one holding the camera, not trusting a small friend of yours.

I was holding the camera, it was supposed to be like the blair witch project kinda thing, where its like from the tape in the camera. As i said, it was supposed to have bad filming, so it would look more realistic when he jumps off.

rhys, there are quite a few people in the forums including myself who want you to stop making the clips and start making real movies. On behalf of those members, start crackin!

Is it really necessary to credit yourself three times for that?

rhys · Post by **rhys** » Sat Jun 03, 2006 8:51 am

No, but i was a noobie and liked titles.

Even more annoying are when the credits are longer than the film. Or clip.

Out of a 1:10 long clip... exactly half (35 seconds) of it was titles and credits.

I....don't really understand, how that was supposed to be an effect?See kid on railing, shaky camera, see kid laying outside, shaky camera, kid is dead. What exactly did you do?

Epsilon · Post by **Epsilon** » Sun Jun 04, 2006 4:46 am

Ohhh they discovered the effect of sequence editing! haha

rhys · Post by **rhys** » Sun Jun 04, 2006 4:51 am

The effect was to have a single shot where he jumps off the balcony, i wasnt just going to let him fall onto the ground, we did the old fashion look at the ground as he ran around stopped, the we recorded again and continued on with bad filming.

The best part of the film was the dog. Best actor too. The music was really annoying.
