"Don't Move Bitch!" LOL! Looks good, when can we see the full movie?

[nocturnal7]

The full movie is completed, we're just not going to upload it on here. It's going to make its festival run over the next year or so and hopefully a distributor will pick it up and buy it.

just something i noticed: BL's gun was being used by several other cast members. each character could use a weapon that fits their own unique personality.

[nocturnal7]

I agree, and I wish that could've been the case, but it was an extremely low budget movie, so we could only afford two guns, and they both looked the exact same.

Well to be honest I assumed you where going fro the Grindhouse look since you posted this on the IMDB Gridnhouse forum. But thats besides the point I don't mean the look of the film I mean the style of a seventies trailer. Specifically the font doesn't look quiet right. I'm fully aware of the font so its not the first time I've seen it used. For someone who asked for people to comment and criticize you don't take it very well.

[nocturnal7]

Yeah, you made some good points, and I wasn't attacking you or anything, and I should've assumed people would view it as a seventies-esque trailer. And yeah, the font is more 60s style than 70s. And the first trailer to this (which can be viewed on the side, there) is more in the vein of a "grindhouse" trailer with aged film and choppy cuts. The entire film itself doesn't quite have that look, but it has the spirit generally.

[WesCaseyFilms]

Okay dude my mistake. I haven't yet checked the rest of your trailers out. Feel free to tear my work apart!

[WesCaseyFilms]

Aged film. Grindhouse style. Some of the things you've used, like the font are okay but you could find something more authentic looking. Plus your gun shots are good bt you could do a lot better. What program did you use? Adobe AE or Vision LAB?

I'm not big on being criticized but its constructive criticism. So try not to take it to heart. One film maker to another trying to help you out.

[nocturnal7]

We used iMovie, but how did you know we wanted it to look aged? How do you know we didn't just want to keep the picture looking "clean"?

[WesCaseyFilms]

A for effort but your not quite there with the look your going for.

[nocturnal7]

And what was the look we were going for?
