Mob Wars Promo

Hey, guys. I shot this a couple months ago for a contest to promote the Facebook app, Mob Wars. It's my second short and I learned a ton. Unfortunately, I didn't get to completely polish it, working on it up till 5 minutes before the deadline.

Things that stick out and annoy me:
- I had shot only half of the dialogue so I scrapped the rest and made a montage so it's not really a great demonstration of storytelling.
- The music's really repetitive because I looped the original 30 second song to fit
- Music level dips midway for a bit
- Jumped the 180 line on the "Hitman" CU

Please feel free to chime in. Shot with an HMC150.

Looks great :)

One thing that jumped out at me as a VFX guy is that your bullet flash at the corners was darker than the area behind it, which at least from a physics point of view, is impossible. Use the 'screen' or 'add' blending modes if you want it to look a bit more realistic.

Good job :)

Thanks for the comment. You're totally right. That kills me too.
