awesome some of the best shoot out i've seen. you capture the feel of hong kong movies and john woo films. Am my self am an film maker and this some of the best i've seen well done.
I've spent most of my life making movies without any money and I've seen what people in the same boat have to offer, I've seen a thousand bad shootouts filmed on cheap camera's in someone's garden or kitchen. This however is actually quite brilliant. While obviously rough and cheap, it contains more innovation, invention, style and panache than all these godawful $200.000.000 movies have in their whole running times. Can't buy that.
@DjangoMr Thanks for the encouraging words. I really appreciate it. Film making is a growing process and even though I've gotten a lot better since this was shot, I still learn new things every time I pick up a camera. Film making is not a hobby, it's a lifestyle choice. ^_^
Good job! I liked it. Good compositing and practical effects to bring the film to life. Love the moving camera angles too. All I had a tough time with was how washed out many of the shots looked. That's all in how expensive of a camera you have available though. 5 stars.
@imprezaver4 I can handle criticism, I value them actually. But anyone can write and pick apart what's wrong with a film. Question is, can you yourself do something like this and much better (since you seem to know so much about film making), I would like to see that.
well doesn't matter. I study film critics anyway but it doesn't matter the budget is 5 bucks or 5 million. Crappy cameras can still do correct proper shots but if you don't know the basics about filming it will still be crap even if I hand you a Digital Panavision Genesis. This is not nit picking. You're definitely not belong in entertainment industry if you can't even handle simple critics. Did I even use vulgar vocab and insult your work? Rooms for improvement, always. Nothing personal.
Long haired guy spoke too soft. Use a gun-mike. 0:27 audience view of man in hat was blocked. girl's very stiff. she should've freaked out or some- thing like that when the long haired guy pulled the trigger. 1:19 half body shot badly done. Ever heard of what's Plan Americain shot? 2:35 the guy's too relaxed. Can' t give the shoot out hype feeling to the audience. 5:54 one moment the guy was holding the girl. when he gets shot on the head the gal is a distance away.
Great critique. Too bad it doesn't matter and you wasted your time. This was done 3 years ago on a budget of $5. All shot within 5 hours and mostly improvised. Not to mention shot on crappy cameras. So of course theirs going to be some faults here and there.
How bout stop nit picking peoples videos and start making some of your own.
Forget that guy up there. The only beef I had with this video was the missing doves. But so what? Entertaining videos can be shot with next to no money or time. I'd love to know how you do the gunshots, blood effects, and flashes.
quando una pistola spara la canna si scalda ..più colpi spara e più si scalda...ora mi spieghi come fà l'attore antagonista vestito di bianco a grattarsi il naso con la canna di una revolver che sarebbe praticamente bollente dopo aver sparato quei colpi!!???comunque un bel lavoro nonostante qualche pecca qua e là...
Yeah, I'm the asian guy in the film. I edited, Directed and did the visual fx for the film. Dwight, who plays the bad guy, uploaded the short film on his youtube. so you might have seen it on his.
Very well done. Some of the effects were a little cartoony, but who the hell am I to criticize. And while it may have been a little bright, the cinematography was excellent.
Nice! Lots of muzzle flashes lol. Must've took you long. What do you use to edit. Watch my vids, they're the same kind of thing as yours. and subscribe.
Ermac1526 i guarantee you have seen atleast one of john woos movies, some of his more knowen stuff he did is mission impossible 2, broken arrow, hard boiled, a better tomorrow 1 & 2 and face off...
Very cool. It made me miss those John Woo films.

Basically you need to learn extensively about
choosing a correct portion of image to describe
a message you're trying to deliver. For example
one thing you're able to follow is the POV of
head shots during conversation & half body
shots during gun battles, basically it's not a
bad job done. Anyway switch1386 did you
edit this using Discreet Logic, Sony Vegas
or Premiere Pro? Edit works look fine to me
anyway.
