Welcome, first timer!!! Great to have you in the fight! Sorry about the tech issues.

Okay, lots of room to improve here - looks like maybe you're shooting this on a digital camera? I'd suggest using a tripod as much as possible to help keep it from looking too weird.

Great pistol prop. Music is very rocking. Line deliverys aren't very good. Why is this called "painted orange"? Because you're using fake guns that are all painted orange for safety?

I love that there are just random explosions going off in the background, haha.

The close up of the gun at 00:40 is a COOL shot. Dig it!! I think the sequence from 00:40 to 00:45 is quite good. Great pace - lots of good shots, nice little sequence there.

If you show a "FPS" style shot for one of the gun men, why not do it for his counter part as well. Always good to mirror things to show a comparaon between the two.

Using wider shots is good to establish where the characters are in relation ot each other, I really lose track around the 1 min mark.

Shot at 1:07 is also very good! I'm seeing glimpses of some very nice camera work here - now you just gotta borrow something a bit nicer to shoot on if possible!

The guy gets away at the end? Totally confusing ending.

I give this film a D+ ... needed a lot of work, but you have some good shooting chops and I'm pumped to see how your skills evolve!

Here's Part 1, maybe watching this will make some things clearer. You can stay tuned for a sequel or two, we have an ending in mind, we just haven't gotten around to it yet.

This is two times a double whiskey. It has twice of everything. Two guys fight, and at the same time bombs in the background. First outside, then inside. Double sound overlay with the music and random bang-bang.

Is this good or bad?

I think you could have painted the cow gun black, but the editing was good, and the snapshot is really nice, too bad the picure quality wasnt as nice as the snapshot looked. I liked the explosions up in the air, nice touch but the one on the lawn was too obviously fake,

The effects in it were pretty good and I liked the camera angles, but it's hard to understand what's going on because you started in the middle of the movie. Besides that, the sound quality wasn't the greatest, I don't really know how to fix that though.

Thanks. Yeah, I wondered how much sense this would make when I posted it, but Part 1 is on youtube if you want to watch it. I think I posted the url... oh yeah, here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1sbl2xf8XhA. As far as bad sound quality goes, do you mean sfx, or the in-camera dialogue stuff. If it's the latter, I guess that makes sense, I was just using a little digital picture camera.
