Editing Feedback - For the Love of God - Bar Scene

Also, it sounds really interesting and good job. I would also recommend cutting and cutting it down. You may fall in love with certain scenes and lines but to an audience who is watching a long movie, it may be tedious at parts. I have no idea how it will end up but just as a rule, you need to cut it down so it's efficient and keeps the pace going. Ideally though this should be done at the script stage. You may end up cutting whole scenes. I recommend screening the film to test audiences and have them turn in anonymous feedback sheets with specific info. If it seems bad don't worry! Films take many many cuts to get to the polished final product.

EDIT: One more thing, make sure to be careful about the monster energy drink. You may get into trouble using logos unless you have their permission.

Ah HA! Found it. Just posted on the original thread that I couldn't unlock the video so I am glad to find this. As far as what I have seen it all looks pretty good. The overall effort will be helped greatly by some post work that you have already mentioned. The sound seems pretty good considering you said it wasn't touched up all that much. I really like the story concept that you laid out...I am a sucker of the apocalypse. I am going to second the suggestion on reaction shots as they will allow you to pace out your conversations a little bit...that is...if you filmed some. If not it's not the end of the world(pun intended). Without them you get a sort of Kevin Smith circa "Clerks" type of dialog which, although amusing, seems forced a bit.

Overall I am a little excited to see the finished product, so please keep us posted.
