what did you use to shoot and edit?

Canon HV40 to shoot. And I used Final Cut Pro to edit. Do you like it...?

 

[Mr. Jet]

Guess not...

You didn't give me a chance to answer I was just talking about your trailer this morning in the theatre while waiting for "The Next Three Days" to start. I'm going to watch your trailer again and post a comment.

it's a positive thing in itself you used the little resources you had to put together a story and shoot it and you got your trailer up. some constructive criticism is- while you have funny elements in the storyline, they don't seem to be showcased enough in the trailer. without reading the storyline in IMDB, i couldn't tell from the trailer alone what the story's about, (i only know it's a comedy and love story), and the trailer didn't seem to show or tell enough about the characters. (for example, a lot of things can be shown with a quiet germaphobe character that could be really funny in itself.) i also saw blood in the trailer but had no idea there was a serial killer character. if you're going to re-edit the trailer, show scenes that will make the storyline more clear and make the uniqueness of each character stand out more. see what you can do with a little voice-over narration as a tool to set up premise and give explanation where needed ("In a world where...").


the actors who play the quiet germaphobe character and the serial killer character (could we give him a different title?) probably do really well with their characters and performances...


good luck with everything

That's some great advice. Thanks.
