Been working on this for a couple weeks but haven't gotten around to making a thread. Poster coming tonight!

Logline: On May 3rd, 1812, John McManus and Michael Bannon meet for the 3rd and final time.

[xxrotinivol2]

Sweet! Looking forward to the updates.

[REHov520]

Poster and logline now added! Film currently rendering!

[Michael Anthony Horrigan]

Nice! Best of luck in the Fest.

[Rodney V. Smith]

Welcome to the fest dudes. Should be a good time.

[ZazaCast]

Welcome to the fest.... and it seems you've got a bit of blood on your poster? I hear club soda can get that out!

:laugh:

[Matt Harris]

i better see a cool gun duel with a title like that!

[REHov520]

defcon,

you will be satisfied beyond every expectation.

[Matt Harris]

that's what i like to hear!

[Brian Parker]

Love the tagline. Good luck in the fest man!

[Blaine]

Okay, that was unexpected. AND unexpectedly funny. Virginia Titley?

Loved the gunplay on display here. My biggest gripe would be your choice of the year 1812. I thought the costuming was much more fitting to the cowboy period 1850s-1870s.

Thanks, I enjoyed it.

[Newtprobert]

Looks cool

[Matt Harris]

Rehov - Holy crap that was funny! Clever, well written, cool animation style (which i WILL be stealing from you). I literally laughed out loud several times (the boob squeeze, shooting the girl 3 times, the "devil is my biggest fan" line). This is a success!

[Miss Rose E. Beautoks]

very funny!

[Mobie540]

Loved it, absolutely hilarious, takes a lot for me to LOL. Best part was the girl was tied to a cactus, I couldn't get over it. Well done.

[Michael Anthony Horrigan]

Nice job. It's so hard to rate this compared to other entries but that's not what we're supposed to do anyway. :)

Funny movie, very refreshing change of pace. Wanted a different voice for the girl but that's nitpicking. Very nice entry.

MAH

[Michael Anthony Horrigan]

very funny!
LOL! Nice name. :)

[Chris_Keaton]

LOL, it's not a fest without an animation and no animation is complete without a rapist. Did that guy's aim suck or what? "Why did you shoot me you dick.' Not an exactly western line, but funny as hell. Great Job!

[Anthony Todaro]

Arie, This was awesome. The music totally fooled me. I really loved the effect you got with the background. Also, thought it was an original way to animate. I think you could have cleaned up your edges a tad and when John fell those two little dots swung up and distracted me. That's my only gripe. I loved the voices and the dialog. The blood splatters were great. It was darn cute and creepy too. There's nothing like an animated boob honk to send us out with a smile. Great job to both of ya's.

*24 hours later I just got the double entendre title. Ha ha. Cool.

[Tom Marshall]

Nice job on this one. The voices were cracking me up. :)

[Brandon Rice]

Draw

Uh... This was so cool!!! I love this jobs of animation and while it wasn't flawless it worked well! Again a really cliche and basic story but I laughed several times out loud! Awesome!!

[Maximus]

Hilarious. I would call this the exact opposite of cliche, as it was probably the most original film this fest. Not to mention the constant stream of surprises throughout. Great twists, and reversals. Very well written. The voices were perfect.

The character designs reminded a little of Beavis and Butthead (not my favorite style) but worked well in this story. Technically, the animation was very well done.

High score from me. :beer:

[Marlon Ladd]

OMG!!! LOL!!! This was so funny! What a pleasant surprise. You guys did such a creative job on this. It's not easy to make people laugh and you guys pulled it off and I really had no idea where it was going. It had some Family Guy type humor at the end too when our hero was checking for her pulse. Very nice attention to detail as well, all the way down to the bad guy's belly sticking out. Kudos!!!

[Richard J. Johnson]

WTF did I just watch?! That was great!

Virgina Titley...Funny.

[ZazaCast]

That was great! Very funny & well done. Congratulations!

[REHov520]

thanks yallz! haven't gotten to watch hardly any yet but hopefully i'll have time this weekend to sit down and watch them all and return the favor of critiquing.

[Troy Ruff]

lol I love this film! It was really funny, great choice in shots. I love that he keeps shooting the girl. I have watched it now three times. great job guys. :)

[4100xpb]

Very funny. The first time he shot the girl totally surprised me – I did not see that coming. The voice acting felt a little flat to me. I liked the different voices, but there was no real emotion to them. The style was neat, some really cool shots. I especially liked the ‘dolly’ behind them just before the shooting started. Great job!

[Nemesis TS]

Dude great entry. Loved the background and 3d feel of the animation.

Beep beep... laughed hard on that.

If you don't mind sharing, how did you make this? Whats the work flow and programs you used.

Thanks for fun short.

[Brian Parker]

Wow. Awesome. Really fresh entry. Loved the delayed finish to the line that his brother is going to have some company. Enjoyed it all the way through. Great job!

[REHov520]

nemesis,

process was pretty simple. everything was drawn by hand, then colored and touched up in photoshop, then brought into after effects for animation. the 3d effects are just from positioning everythang in 3d space and creating and moving an AE camera.

[Tim Joy]

YES! Very cool. I was wondering when someone would do something like this.

I laughed a lot. Tons of great gags and funny pinching and wild west shootin'!

The voice for the woman was especially... touching. :)

Best of luck.

[Susanne G.]

I loved this one. So simple and so effective. Lovely funny comedy with a ironical view on all the clichés of this film genre. Compliments! One question: The Mark Johnson who did the score, is it the Mark from 'Fat Monsters'?

Susanne

[REHov520]

thanks susanne. no it is not that mark johnson. it is this one:

[jasonthewho]

I definitely enjoyed this. Some very funny bits, and I love seeing an animated entry. I liked the style you used, simple, but it has great movement, and stays fresh.

A very welcome entry. Makes me want to do more animation.

[soffcore]

really great - thanks for making me laugh!

the slow point was awesome, and when he shoots the lady the first time - hilarious!

[Blaine]

Congratulations on making it to the finals! I love the fact that an animated short made it!

[Matt Harris]

i loved this one, way outside the box.

[Michael Anthony Horrigan]

Congrats on making the finals.

[Curugon]

Congratulations dude!

[REHov520]

thanks guys. i'm excited since i just moved to la and i can actually go to the screening now.

[4100xpb]

Congrats!

[Mobie540]

Congrats, this one was my favorite.

[Captain]

Give me a break! No really give me a break. my damn gut hurt so bad on the way home from laughing so hard. that was so awsome. One of my faves. LMAO

[Luis Buitrago]

:laugh:LOL... that was funny as heck!

Nice job in making it funny and clever!

:laugh:

[Rodney V. Smith]

This was funny. Played very well on the use of the word "Draw" as well. I love the concept of the dude constantly shooting and missing! Freaking awesome in concept and simple. Your artwork leaves a lot to be desiered, but what the hell: you made animation work for you without trying to be realistic, so awesome job on that.

[totitefilms]

Very funny and original. The best so far :)

[Jason Ramsey]

This was very good. Thanks for taking the time. It's destined to become a "cult" fave of DVXFest, imo...

Later,
Jason

[Zak Forsman]

This was a crowd favorite at the screening. Played very well.

[Brandon Rice]

Agreed! I was laughing my face off!!
