I think the idea for this film was too simple and not well done. As far as walking into a \"Portal\" and immediatly asking \"What year is it?\" i think that is childish and dumb. 1. if any real person was to go into a portal i thnk the \"Where am i, and how do i get out?\" would come up. 2. Global warming??????
3. i feel every vote for this video is a bunch of someones friends voteing just to vote.
4. special effects not used well
Yes. I have a lot of friends who vote because they like my videos. Also, as for special effects, I don't have a fancy effects program like After Effects, I have to try to full of what I can in Final Cut Express, so don't judge me! FC≠AE
Hey now, nothing wrong with getting your friends to vote! Don't hate on the kid for that! Why make a film if you don't self-promote it :)
The kid in the glasses reminds me of the guy from There Will Be Blood. And that Sunshine movie. Looks like you\'ve got wide screen video that\'s playing squished in your window. Some nice smoke effects. I can hear the smoke machine puffing in the background. It\'s super hard to hear the voice in the background - annoying that you guys have to repeat everything. Some pretty funny ideas for GW Bush coming back. I see you\'ve got some motion tracking going on for the candy corn.
Yah really weird weak plot. Glad to see a submission but there was some room there to add in a conflict with the mysterous voice in the future -- maybe you could have verbally outwitted him or something, anything rather than just no conflict and asking questions and then just going back. Take a little time to flesh out the concept a little more, and be careful about your audio levels - remember it\'s always a good idea to re-record your audio with another mic and just lip sync it, or at least get close up shots of people when they\'re talking (even if it\'s just you two and a tripod, have the 2nd person hold the camera to get the close ups) sticking far away the whole time just leaves you unappealing shots and un-hearable audio!
Thanks for the review Justin! And those "smoke" effects are the ink effects from the AWESOME software "Riot Gear" I had a fog machine, but no smoke showed up, so I had to add it. :-)
