[blindside7]

LOL THE END!!!

[captainrhodes83]

What type of lighting did u use in the last scene in the bedroom??...and which lens did u use in there also??

[NinjaWilly7]

XD AMAZING

[jman26b]

My hat if off to you. The shots, the lighting, the background music. It was amazing. I want to make shorts. Any tips?

[KMPer02]

@jman26b Just get yourself a decent camera and an interesting idea and go from there. Also, just put a lot of effort forth and it will show in the final product. Best of luck!

[AlMeeraj]

OMGGGGGGGGG awesomeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[TheAlchemist718]

This was fun. Good job.

[sallysax]

i was watching this and was like wow this isnt that bad intense keeps u on edge and then this little green monster shows up and just ruins the whole this and its crediblitiy

[cheezweels]

the end with the clay worm ruined the whole video....

[Marco20Rider9]

are you kidding me?? your video should be a real movie men keep that excellent work!

[klpinvestments]

how much money did you have invested in the equipment used to make this film? I am new to filmmaking and want write and film a short. I'm wondering which camera to buy for a small budget indie guy like me? Would you still recommend I get the HVX200?

[kerimil]

good music

[Feelosoph]

edit: i bought me the HVX too (with an Redrockadapter) , dont like vdslr, bacause no other camera can achieve

the Look of Celluloid so closely and its hard to work with GoP..

[bigballblue1]

Nice work

[bachelor0101]

wow inspiration pur

[RzSoLidZ]

good stuff, broke 180 rule once or twice but some very atristic shots.

I will be Famous.

[MichaelFrymus]

I didnt notice anything

[brettsk8]

every single shot in this film was a piece of art.. its rare that I shoot something in one of my shorts that I REALLY like.. you make me sick :P jk this was awesome man.. im thinking about selling my DVX to get a HVX when I save up abit more.. but im sure the lenses you used made the footage look so good, I bet a stock HVX wouldnt have looked near this excellent.

[KMPer02]

@brettsk8 thanks for watching. The lenses I used are old beat up Nikons ranging between $50-$80. Stock HVX has much wider depth of field making everything in focus, but with the 35mm adapter one is able to control the depth of field via the use of 35mm lenses. This film was a result of boredom and wanting to try out some new film toys. Set your mind to it and you never know what cool short films one can come up with!

[brettsk8]

well it looks absolutely gorgeous regardless of them being old beat up lenses. your lighting is perfect as well. good stuff man

[Feelosoph]

@brettsk8

the Lightning Techniques make this Footages look awesome! Combined with nice and decent Colorgrading of course and good chosen Viewangles

[philmx0a]

Man this was awesome. Excellent work.

[sammah1]

Well I just read all the comments to find out, again, Awesome video.

[sammah1]

I like it, who scored it? Very welldone!

[goFLIKBOX]

Awesome cinematography and continuity. I also like the look with your dolly , it always makes for a more professional shot.

[Dissagreed]

At 1:45 how did you get that over the bed shot?

[KMPer02]

crane shot with the camera resting on the ceiling

[Dissagreed]

very nice. I shoot wiht the HVX200 as well but I don't to do too many narratives with it. Its great to see it being used by someone who really knows how to take full advantage of its capabilities.

[konstieckert]

sanitarium

[theLordKelvin]

hey what did you do the opening logo with?

[KMPer02]

The "Bokeh Picture" logo? I shot a timelapse with a bunch of bokeh, and created the title in Photoshop. Put some jingle to it in Final Cut and voila. Hahah

[theLordKelvin]

very cool! haha eduardo the evil...:D love the dolly stuff...maybe you should use this as like a resume for getting fpc to do a horror film this year

[KMPer02]

haha yeah maybe!!!

[DreamzStudio1]

GREAT VIDEO...what kind of lights did you use and did u use hvx200? thx

[KMPer02]
