hey guys, this is my first attempt at a narrative film using my 100b. it was all shot at my friend's house, and we constructed all parts of the set by hand.
it was really cold. we used a cheap sunpak tripod for some of the shots, and a glidecam 4000 for others. some are just held by hand.

as this is my first venture into your expansive world of filmmaking, i need your wisdom and guidance! please give me any tips/criticisms, suggestions, anything!

here is the link.

 
Quite awesome for a first try. It inspired me.
How did you light it?
I like the image, but I think that the audio could be better.
By the way, what music did you use for the end credits? Sounds a lot like Zimmer. :)

We used torch and firelight. It gave that cool flickering effect.

And yes, the end credit music was Zimmer, "Molossus" from Batman Begins.
 
Cool, I guess simple light can give a dramatic effect. It worked well in this case because it makes it hard to see the rest of the set, which is good since the guy doesn't seem to know where he is.
