Made a short video over the weekend. Its a funny death sequence with two girls. A joke of Scream. Title: SCREAM For Me Download it right here: http://s51.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3QPQJA8VFPH2Q0VHZMDCFFJ7VE This one is called Poison Map Story: A map that leads to the ultimate power must be obtained before it can be used for evil. Only one man can stop The Snake & His Assasins, retrieve the map, and save the world from ending... This one is martial arts and I'm putting a little more effort into it. Download it right here: http://s39.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=2M3V3UBUWCYQ13LNXMXYL4QPLM Some thoughts would be of great help. Tell me what you guys think.

First things first. Its great to see another film maker out there. Where do you guys live? You look young, so its great you have the chance to start so young. Onto the movies

The Scream one wasn`t funny at all. It was more of just wrapping up all slasher
movies into a 3 minute clip. You even added in the "hello?" which stupid girls always do before they die. The camera angles where plenty and varied which keeps a sense of originality and keeps the eyes attention. One small thing you could have done to add to it was when he was stabbing the girl, since she`s off camera anyway, you should have put blood on the knife. Overal it was a decent effort, nice when you can have a location like that to shoot in.

The Map. Taiwanese...nice touch ;) My girlfriend is TWese and i`ll be going there to live for 6 months in May. Anyway, as for the movie. Again, lots of camera angles which is good. My major problem with it is all the fighting is very rigid and stiff. I understand not wanting to hurt each other, but it just looks far to effortless, not meaning a great ease of flow in the arts, but rather like the actors don`t care, like they aren`t in a fight, just rehearsing or something. I know its too late to refilm it now, and you have to do the best with what you have (my second movie was like that, we could only film eacj scene for one day since my friends didn`t care much after we started, so i had to use the best we had). But in the future (because i can tell your enjoying what your doing and you have alot of potential) put more effort and feeling into the fighting. Also when switching camera angles (example when he`s walking in the first clip) don`t use his first step he takes when you start recording....the first step is naturally slower and less of a 'walking' motion, so you can tell he started from a stand still. You`ve done a good job so far, i`d like to see more that you create. Ah and you may wish to buy a boom mic of sorts, they can do wonder for your audio (wish i had one too...but my cam is getting old).

You can check out my first movie trailer (released in 2003) here
