Timur and Mark. Thanks for all the support and I mean that sincerely! You guys made a fantastic film and you're both nuts.... nice one :)
 
Halfway Thanks :

First off to Mark, for taking the role of Actor, being dragged around the floor and brusing himself countless times for my short. Mark is my creative muse and I hope you go on to be a part of this festival too.

John - without him none of my films would ever get made. He's the backbone to everything I make.

I have nothing but thanks for everyone who bothered to leave feedback for my short film. Even more thanks to those who voted for my film so highly. You have made me feel much better about what I do and have given me encouragement to pursure what it is I really want make of my life.

Ted, Versus, Edgen, Jack, Mark, Timur, Charli, JP, Brandon. (if Ive forgotten anyone, sorry, Im really tired!) All of you have made me feel part of these boards and I cant thank you enough for all the time you've taken to talk and chat to me.

Please feel free to continue to leave feedback for Halfway and I'll answer all questions.

Bring on the next fest!
 
Halfway was AWESOME.

I'm new to the forum and just getting an idea of who everyone is, etc. I've watched a lot of the entries and yours was by far my favorite. Incredible job, really. I was blown away. I'm definately looking forward to seeing what else you can do.

All the Best,
Ben
 
p.s. Did you do the VFX? I'm particularly interested in how you did the shot with the door, the face and hands appearing to be pressing against it. I love that effect.

Hi Ben

Yeh I did all the effects for it. The face through the door was actually a lycra T-shirt stretched over a wooden frame. then I poked my face through and tracked that onto the door itself. I stuck 2 markers on the door to help me track it into the handheld shot - then removed those markers in the final shot.

I have some stills of that so I may add them to this thread in the next day or so.
