Hey man. Pretty sweet job of a very good film. You sure do like your black and white :P. I do too = instant noir classiness.

Nice to hear some Aussie accents :p

[alfredbrownjohn]

Haha thanks dude! I lurve black and white. It's actually just a lazy film technique so we don't have to think about colour but hey - it works =)

Go the aussies! Woot!

man howdya do the sound tech with the dude hitting u

[alfredbrownjohn]

You mean how'd we do the sound effect? I actually can't remember exactly how lol. I think it was a combination of thumping a desk mixed with an archived heartbeat effect. If you mix together a whole bunch of sounds you can generally get the effect you want =)

@canthisgetanybetter It's a German accent.

Note the blur effect, oh wait it's just out of focus............

Great work!

[canthisgetanybetter]

The english accent isnt very consistant. though i like the video!

I like it. It's a different spin on a really classic scene. It had a nifty 60's Swingin' London crime vibe to it; very The Krays. Excellent work on the lighting. That echo was a bit annoying; it's an intimate scene and the echo works against it. Also the mic picked up too much breathing from the Pin.

well done

Nice job. I didn't like this at first (acting is a little bit hack), but by the end of the clip I was on board. Nice use of sound, editing, direction. Good job.
