4: 8:56PM - 9:00PM (A 24 Spoof)

[sean156]

Hey everyone! Here's a short I just finished that's a spoof/satire of the TV series "24." At first, I was hesitant about trying to emulate their style, but being such a fan, I couldn't pass up the opportunity. While many tiny jokes will be missed, I think the short works even for those who don't watch the show. Comments/criticisms welcomed and wanted!

A silly concept, but funny in it's own right. Acting and lighting could be better though.

Ha! I agree with the need for better lighting but I didn't care. I love 24 and thought this was funny! "Don't fight it.." haha. Great job! -Matt

good work, the edit/pace worked well and was very 24-esque

Yeah, I'm with you on the lighting, but a part of me was happy with what I got. I just used one light bulb on a stand w/ a softbox for the whole shoot, which fell over and shattered after I got the last shot, haha. I was really trying to nail the 24 feel w/ the style, editing, cinematography, everything. I'm glad to hear you guys enjoyed it! Maybe there'll be another "episode" in the future

Very good stuff. Loved it. Like others say, you got the style down.

Loved how it cut to the guy in the bathroom during the split screens. Classic.
