Thank you, Zensteve! :) I agree with you, the old man, who is my grandfather laying in an old people's home, is really expressive.

I updated the links with the new international version of the short. The german version used sayings which have in this case a strong ambiguity, I hope this still works in English. :)

Thank you! I am happy you like at least the technical part! :-) It is interesting that some people miss a story or can't find the meaning of the movie, while others understand it in their own way. Indeed, there is no real story, it is more a collage of scenes - nearly photos - of life. Sounds...

Hey guys, some time passed since my last post, but unfortunately I was too busy with school and private stuff so that I had barely time for this great forum! But a short called "Sunday" was created in this time. The movie is shot in extreme slowmotion and the score is composed and recorded...

Hey Henry, I totally understand your arguments and this is also what we don´t like about our own movie. The story was created in half an hour, because we were just in the mood making a little flick. We tried to make the best of the simple idea and just wanted to entertain, but also to test the...

Thanks for your comments! I am sorry about the Tommyboy association.. We´ll fix it! Apropos, we used a Sigma 17-70 2.8-4.5, which is obviously not the best for shooting films, but for my first DSLR shoot it was nice to be able to zoom, especially because we were in a hurry.. :)

Poor Thelma... I see Richardson shooting Scorsese´s new movie on an iPhone with a 35mm Adapter.. ;)

I just can say: Thanks and I am happy you liked it! :)

Hey guys, I want to present you our new short: Tom has to do it. It's more important than ever. Tom has to kill. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-K-mfXyWA5k (I dunno why, but if I try to use the YT-tag, I only see a white area instead of the player) We are from Germany and are all not...

The sound could have been better, especially the guns sounded like plastic, but for a 48h project really good. :)

I like TheOpusFuller´s logo and think it has potential, but I also like the current design. Moreover I agree with Uranium City concerning the hollywood-logo. The logo is, in my opinion, too childish and though everyone is friendly ( and probably deep in his heart still a little kid ;) ) it does...

I would rather shoot like a cinematographer than look like one ;) . That means, to my mind, to have first of all good lenses/primes, a good tripod and so on. But maybe you already own those things.. I´ve heard, that the "ikan" monitors are good. I own a portable DVD-player, but I will replace...

Since I decided to buy the T2i, which I probably order in the next few weeks, I also keep an eye on the gear, which is allegedly necessary. But I am wondering, why I suddenly need a matte box, which costs as much as the T2i does. Hitherto I filmed with the Canon XHA1 and never used a matte box...

Hey, I really liked your short. It convinced me by the way of editing and camera work, which made me feel standing maybe on the other side of the sea and observing them. Moreover I am a fan of longer shots, without many cuts, because it shows the acting, without manipulating it later in the...

The T2i is a good way to go, but I think the budget is slightly too low. I am also going to buy a DSLR and I am realising, how expensive it really is. To shoot efficient, you need several lenses ( always think about the crop factor 1,6 ), and maybe some other gear, like a follow focus, shoulder...

I´m wondering, if a 60 minute program really can provide you enough information about creating a feature. Don´t you think, watching making offs and behind-the-scenes suffice?

The style of the shots were pretty cool, but to my mind the editing is expandable. The outside scenes were too short to convey their message, and they do not fit to the rythm. Maybe this will work in the full music video, but in the little preview they disrupted a bit. But all in all I am...

I think, just one lense does affect shooting, but a 50mm could be good compromise. The bigger problem is the crop factor. That means that a 50mm lense has actually a focal length of 70mm ( factor: 1,5 ; it could be that the factor is 1,6 -> 80mm ). Therefore a 35mm lense comes in combination...

All in all you had some good effects in it, but I think it was way too long for an advertisment. The story could have been told within 30 seconds. But for your first work, you can be proud.. For the future think about strategies, which make the viewer interested in the product. The effects...

Pretty cool short film. I have no really point of criticism.. Moreover I have to agree with wridingrlm, that it was probably the best 48h film I´ve seen yet.
