Thanks nate.Really great work! This final version came out really well. That final edit always makes a huge difference. Might want to submit this to IFC, I think they still air collections of indie shorts, and this is much better than most of the ones I saw last time I watched it.
Ugh that bitch ruining my movie with her shoes!! Can't count on anyone to do anything right. lol j/kReally enjoyed it... The hit woman's different shoes once inside the house took me out of the story just for a second but it wasn't enough to ruin it. I've also been there more than a few times. The fact that you did what you could with what you had and came out with something extremely watchable is very cool.
I just have one question... LOL.
Why didn't she go for the head shot? Just kidding.
Dude... No worries. For whatever reason? The RED STRIPES on the back of her boots OUTSIDE just struck me. Once that impression was there? Couldn't get it out of my head and then when she was inside, my brain YELLED OUT to me... NO BOOTS! LOL.Ugh that bitch ruining my movie with her shoes!!

She is actually one of my ex-friends moms. i still talk to the parents sometimes.
thats too bad that it took you out of the story though, them walking in with all the susense is one of the coolest parts.
thats what i get for all the close ups on feet. its like a tarantino movie or something.
Maybe I can fix those boots in post if I release a polished version next christmas.Dude... No worries. For whatever reason? The RED STRIPES on the back of her boots OUTSIDE just struck me.

My favorite part?
When she walks up to the Antagonist after the gunfight from the car... Loved the way she capped the bodies on the way up the hill. Without even a thought. LOL.
I want to say... Just like real life. But would that make me a monster? LOL.
Thanks! It was nice to be able to post the process on here and chat about it as i made the film. Especially having no producer or crew or anything there is literally nobody else to talk to or bounce ideas off of. I did put a lot more thought and effort into bells and whistles this time around, some of the transitions in this movie are out of control lol.Haven't watched it yet but enjoyed you posting the process and am impressed by your get-it-done-no-matter-whatness. You have that old school filmmaker mentality that is rare these days. All about story and getting it out there by any means.
Really happy to hear that you loved it! and you guys def deserve the thanks in the credits!I loved it! It was great seeing how it all came together bit by bit during your editing. And very cool to see IndieTalk in the thanks - 'cause yeah, I watch credits to the end.
The story hangs together well, and you kept it really tight, which is hard to do.
Congratulations!
Focus on the story that you want to tell and how you want to tell it, whether it's a short, a web series, or a feature. The rest will come with practice.it worries me a little bit that i won't be able to pull off longer scenes necesary for a feature.
