Yeah it was cool. Im just one of those gun enthusiasts who also enjoys all the arts including film. So where some people will just write "gun" in the script - I'll think about what type of gun because it's part of the characters costume, and hence part of his/her personality. A shotgun in the woods is logical because of hunting or protection from bears, the same for the revolver. The AR is like a red sports car being driven around an arctic base. It could work, but it sticks out as odd.
One thing you could do, rather than redo the AR sequence would be to just insert a scene where you "find" the AR. Maybe the sea monster ate a mercenary or Special Forces guy/girl or something. Some fake blood, spent cartridges, swamp muck, the AR and an obvious monster trail to segue to the pond might be more dramatic than just swapping props.
This would fit in consistently with the character not being totally familiar with the weapon, and why it ran dry after only a few shots. 2 for 1.
I thought this came out pretty good. My only fault with it was in the final scene where you pointed the gun at the camera. It looked like a hand held shot, and the gun looked real enough to make me cringe for sake of the cameraman. Also consider the type of character that would be using certain types of guns. I think for this film I would've replaced the tricked out AR15 with a shotgun or hunting rifle. It'd fit in the setting better and pair up with a revolver more consistently.
i thought it was quite good, lots of different angles. why did u start running after shooting into the lake? some of the sound effects were a bit overbearing (sounded like a helicopter at the end). good choice of song in the background, set the mood well.
Nice. I like the way that it is "implied" that there is something out there.
You're cute, too *wink*

Many of these shorts are like sketches to a painter. They are quick works to practice the craft.
I have one hour to make a film, what can I do?

Look man, you obviously have love for film. As you make lots of short films. But, I am trying to be respectful, but at the same time, honest.
Why do you not put any time into any of them?
Why not take time with script & storyboards?
What about dressing the part?
It is not about quantity. But quality.
Write me if you want input

Man the AR-15 just looked too cool.
Perhaps I'll go back and cut it with a shotgun and see how that looks.
