Posse: a 48 Hour Film Project

The ever popular office Western, produced as part of the Philadelphia 2005 48 Hour Film Project. We drew "Western" as the genre and according to the rules of the contest, we had to include an umbrella, a political activist, and the line of dialogue: "I've never seen one of those before." Won awards for best sound design, best acting, and best directing.

This movie sucks...and is half ass in the attempt of the western genre w/ in the 48hr film comp. Sound seems good, looks visually pretty good ...but totally seems out of place to the genre. It's easy to spin each genre into a comedy that turns out just silly. In my opinion you need to stick to a more serious attempt or effort. We did it w/ our first film which, we drew the spy genre, but the film turn out to be our worst film. Even though funny in spots, it was just...bad.

This is fabulous constructive feedback and support from a fellow 48hour film producer. Comments like, "it sucks," and "half ass" are true indicators of what the 48 hour film experience is all about - fun, collaboration, and meeting new friends. Thank you, Friend, for your comments. We will be sure to incorporate your feedback into our next project.

Well Done. Was this the 48 hr. cut, or did you have time to re-edit?

[AfterSchoolSpecialis]

essentially all the edits/timing are the same. we did fix two technological glitches in this version and a mistake in the credits, but it's 99% the same as the 48hr cut.

this is really good, i enjoyed it all the time, some great music to add the atmosphere, basically keep up the good work

[jonthebome]

eh.

@stuntz99: On the contrary to what you said. This video is better then most amature videos ive seen. Althought the humor needs some work, its a relatively good concept.

Well done. When the three of them came together in the hall in slow motion - You pulled it off perfect, and the girl actor looked like a pro in a full feature film. Great use of sound - edited well. The script was good for a 48 challenge, and I liked the ending - comical. Thanks.

[WatchingStuffIsGood]

Did you have to compose and record the soundtrack?

Is it possible to use already created copyright-free soundtracks?
