We've been working this project on the side of things (for about a year now), but I finally got around to putting a trailer together for our new original web series - IMMORTAL P.I. Let me know what you guys think, thanks! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OvjK9b_j9wE&t=3s

Bonjour voisin! I feel like I've heard your name somewheres across the basin. We're a small indie film group out of Lafayette, LA! Welcome to the forum!

If you know anything about editing software, then composite software isn't going to be that much of a bigger deal. Filmmaking is a giant learning process of "how can I do this?". If you don't want to spend money, start learning how you can do it yourself. Not only can that become valuable...

Refine a rough cut of the first episode of our web series (still in production, I just like getting things done along the way), while possibly having to direct a huge fight scene with 2 UFC fighters and 4 other martial artists since the director won't be able to make the shoot this weekend...

Quickly tapping the trigger once? If it's just some handguns, then after effects would help out more than expensive practical props (if you're on a no-budget). Simply put, create a layer that just has the slide of the chamber, and for each shot that your talent replicates, make the slide go...

I hope that as well. If anyone has any comments and such, please don't hesitate. We actually learn from the criticism we receive.

Thanks! And yes, $650 mostly spent on donuts. Excuse me while I go on a motivational speech here, but I've been catching up on this forum, reading a bunch of posts, and it sparked something. I like to refer to this project as a whole, when talking to others who aren't too sure they can shoot...

Hello y'all! I don't think I've been on here since a couple of years ago. Been extremely busy with projects and real day-jobs. Anyway, our group created an action "featurette" (45 minutes). It's really more of a sandbox-styled-fun-experiment for everyone on board - learning to work with one...

Ah. Well yes, that's our trailer anyway.

There's not a YouTube player or link in my first post?

Been awhile, but we've been hard at work on our first feature film: 1-800-JACKETS Had a lot of fun making this, please feel free to leave your thoughts and critiques! Helps us out on future projects- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Esqr2JSE7Bg

So we finally got around to finishing up the second episode to our series. For those who don't know what this series is, I will provide a link to the first episode. Short premise - severe amnesiac is forced to join group of underground, esoteric vigilant assassins, in a city filled with...

Agreed, opening titles sequences will be much shorter for future episodes. There have been some comments that there was popping for headphone users as you described. I'll have to make sure it doesn't happen again. Updated original post.

I see what you're saying. I feel like this episode is an entire feel to the series (lots of fighting, undertoned mystery, story-arch with different characters). The second episode is almost a drastic difference. Far more exploring and character development, far less fighting each other. The...

Haha no hard feelings. I suddenly jumped into the main character after about 6 years of not really acting in anything. If you were to be picky, what about the story made you lose interest?

I agree with the title sequence. The idea behind it was that it is a title sequence for the series as a whole. Future titles will be quick and not nearly so lengthy. But where did you hear the popping noises? Also agree with the comments on Felix and receptionist. Dustin Babin (Felix...

Glad to see it finally finished. As a senior thesis to get degrees, this is something we have been working on for the past 4 months. So you could technically classify it as a "student film" (since this episode is), but our aim is to evolve far beyond that. As an ambitious project from the...

Understood and agreed. On my next attempt at a trailer, I'll keep your advice in mind. We have permission from an artist (Carpenter Brut) to use his music, and perhaps this may be a better route.

Perhaps I've worded it wrong. The director was inspired by the looks, but applied his own style. Personally (and I've brought this up with him) I feel the title obviously distracts from his idea of the series NOT being shot as a noir film, but as a dark action film (at least among filmmakers)...

The intro was cool, but when the first shot opened up, it literally hurt my eyes with so much bright white. There's some things the fighting itself could improve on as far as what can sell the punching. When DP is watching, they should be able to say "that looked bad" and try something...
