Come on man!! You had 5:30 to work with. Wheres the suspence. Eg. Approaching shot from

villian POV, outside the house. Maybe a little VO from the girls game while the bad guy stalks

outside? different music/sound. Maybe some "bad guy breathing". Flicker a light here or there. I

think we could have seen the barn guy a little sooner.

Having said that I do believe its a step up from your other vids. Congrats man good work!

Thanks, by the way I was the barn guy , it was crazy , We had to have one continious shot 1 min and 10 sec. long. If I find the list of rules and props I will post them. As far as the bad guy breathing it had to be completely silent , just music

 

[Murdock]

Oh ok. Yea the list would be helpful. Good stuff. You looked like you were doing some good work in that barn. Stay away from the goats. BAAAAAH!!

I like the old film look. Are you using After effects?

 

[Zensteve]

Pretty good, for meeting the criteria.

Title cards didn't match the footage colour-scheme - not a huge deal, but just mentionin' as it did stick out.

Soooo... does your opposition film team now have to make something according to your demands?

 

[sikandtwisted films]

I have not heard from them in atleast 6 months , they have not been back on any of the social networking sites ,I don't know what happened to them. As far as after effects , I used Nero when editing ,it has some basic effects. We had a blast with the challenge, we are looking forward to another one
