    archived-videos 2 Dolly test videos, feedback is appreciated!

    yeah the first dolly shot i wanted to experiment with changing the focus on things, and it was not meant to sound like an explosion more like a abrupt ending, though i could have just done with fading out the music and it would have worked better. The second video was just a test into making it...

    archived-videos DESTINY concept teaser #1 post apocalyptic sci-fi web series

    well yes you got the gist of it, although the actor is supposed to portray a 20 year old, which he is actually 20. The story is still in concept stage but what was intended by this teaser was that he has been on his own for a long while and finally just gives up on life, when he sees this beam...

    archived-videos my action short film "BACKPACK"

    the bouncing letter box would be referring to the black rectangles at the top and bottom of the screen that keep moving up and down during the video, any reason why its doing that? What editing software are you using? Is the footage itself smaller than the size of the composition?
