Thriller Movie Opening

Hey Crossfire!

For a course at my school we've had to create the opening to a movie of the thriller genre.

Tell me what you think, bare in mind we are only amateur film makers and this was our first proper piece of work!

Remember to play it in HD and like!



Thanks!

Hey hsTE what is this
Hey Altsi, I think it's quite clear from the journal content what it is

I like it, the cameraman does a good job, nice points of view.
Thank you!
Parent
Yo, hsTE, what is this?
I don't even know
Parent
Wow its pretty good considering youre amateurs. What are you studying?
Thanks a lot! I picked up Media Studies at AS-Level as well as doing my A2 studies, currently really enjoying it so might just continue to do the full A-level into next year as well as a semi-full time job.
Parent
Nice okay, doesn't really say a lot to me since you got a different system in the uk but good luck any further
Parent
AS = half of an A-level
A-level = the qualification before you go to University

Thank you!

sound isn't spot on.. can hardly hear what you say + windy sounds

isn't creating much tension actually.. Lack of thrilling music and maybe fast following scenes
Yeah we've had some issues with sound, can't seem to fix all of em so :(

Well, we're only amateurs so can't expect too much!
Parent
Buy better stuff :)
Parent
The microphone we used was actually worth around 220 euros. The camera was a Canon EOS 600d which is worth about 550 euro. Think we had expensive enough equipment.
Parent
Thought of editing in vegas/adobe? velocity, color, etc
Parent
We edited in Sony Vegas Pro 10 :)
Parent
record the audio separitely and paste it over?
Parent
Just seen it completely, looks really nice, just needs better audio in my opinion.
Keep it up though :))

XXXXDDDDDD
haaste! nice job man :)

Few things that could be better in my opinion.

- The intro music of the news on the radio should be more like it's actually coming from the radio in a house, you guys did it right with the female vocals but the intro music could be better in my opinion

- fades to black in cofession booth not needed i think (0:35/0:37)

but damn great job tom!
Well we sorta did do it like it was in a house, if you listen, when the camera changes rooms from the one with the radio in it the intro sound changes in volume and goes back again when he goes back in.

That fade was necessary cause it shows time has passed, cause we didn't want you to hear exactly why he is questioning his faith so :P

Thanks a lot!

bad frags
altho seriously it was pretty good :p i dont know shit about movies etc but I liked it
Parent
The opening scene could have some faint background music, something evangelical perhaps. The bbc news tune took a bit too long, killed some of the tension.

Then again I'm not a moviemaker, not even an amateur, so its just my personal taste really. Otherwise well done for an amateur project :)
Thanks for your feedback!
Parent
For some reason i thought it was very funny ;P
Good job! I actually liked it, I want to know how it ends :P.
Too bad I couldn't hear what they said (background music too loud compared to the voices) but still I found it pretty interesting.
I'm so glad it wasn't a FRAPS movie. This is more of a FAPS movie.
OMG WILL IT BE RAPE MURDER OR ABORTION I CANT WAIT TO SEE WHAT HAPPENNS
