    Thanks my man, glad you enjoyed it. Yes huge fan of the Bourne movies, it would be pretty cool to mix that style of fighting with a video game feel, something to look into next time for sure!

    Hey Paul! Yeah for sure man story is what I want to dive more into. I specifically didn't include a story in this short as I was going more for the quick internet flick, but a good story is unbeatable you're right. Just need to push myself more.

    Thanks bro for that insightful comment, really appreciate it. Switching from the first and third person was something I really worked on getting right as that was a big critique on my last action short (which wasn't really third person just regular shots). Yeah more story is something I'm am...

    Hey everyone, a little over 3 months ago I moved to LA to continue my career in film. This is my first YouTube video to come out while I'm here, highly inspired by video games such as Battlefield and Resident evil! I post my stuff on these forums because I like getting the good o'l hard...

    archived-videos Vitamin Time - Thoughts on Short Comedy??

    Yes I agree Vihtic, I'm an actor at heart so when I direct the first thing I'm looking at is the performances, not shot types, lighting, anything. I need to balance that. I've learned my lesson though, the next comedy short I do will for sure be different. I'd love to still hear other...

    archived-videos Vitamin Time - Thoughts on Short Comedy??

    Yes that has been the biggest complaint I have received, just not enough variation with shot types and jokes. My whole idea was that the joke was simply this whole conversation with the father and son as a whole. But even then I realize I need more jokes spread throughout. Thanks for the...

    archived-videos Vitamin Time - Thoughts on Short Comedy??

    I was contacted by the entertainment organizer of a company called Shaklee, asking if I could make a short comedy video for a convention they were doing in Nashville, Tennessee. I obviously said yes and this is what I came up with!! It's the same character from my video "Diarrhear"...

    archived-videos New Acting Reel - Critique/Advice?

    I just completed my latest acting reel and want to know if I'm headed down the right track with the way it is presented and edited. This is only my second time doing one so if any of you more experienced actors/editors or whoever have any critique on it, I would very much like to hear it...

    I agree with the others, great film, but the ending didn't make sense to me. I could tell she was troubled, it was evident on her face. But what she was troubled about I have no clue. I got a question though, what did you use to record your sound? Personally I thought the sound quality of...

    Can you give an example of the dialogue you felt needed to go/be changed?

    archived-videos A 1min and 24sec Comedy Short Film Wanting Your Critique!!

    Thank you everyone for all the feedback. As an aspiring filmmaker, it's really nice to be able to go to someplace where I can get critique. For the past year, all of my films have really just been experiments as I try and figure out what a broad audience likes and then attempt to create it in...

    Hey everyone, my latest comedy has just been uploaded and I, as always, would really love your feedback if you could spare a minute or two! Let me know what you thought of the acting, dialogue, pacing of the edit, sound, lighting, or whatever you'd like! I'm trying to whip these videos out as...

    archived-videos Critique Wanted on Short Sci-Fi Thriller!!

    You know what...I just noticed that at 1.12!!! I agree the more I listen to it the more I see where the room tone is inconsistent in some places. As far as the background noises I definitely see what you're saying there. I was however playing with the idea that the house was just an empty...

    We did use 24fps. And yes I agree about the props! I really didn't want to use that remote but unfortunately I didn't have access to anything else at the time. Thanks for the feedback!

    I really enjoyed this! Unlike some of the others, I was hooked right from the beginning. For me personally, if the acting and writing is at a certain level (which both of yours was), I'm hooked the whole way through! Great comedic timing from your actors and pacing of the edit. One of the...

    archived-videos Critique Wanted on Short Sci-Fi Thriller!!

    Any and all critique/comments are welcome!! The more detailed you can get with aspects such as lighting, edit pacing, acting, shot composition, sound, etc. the better for me for future purposes!! But just a quick comment would be just fine as well :) Thank you very much in advance...
