FEATURE: Red Green Blue - Czech Feature Film, feedback requested

[Yarkshire]

Hi All. I am an English filmmaker currently producing and directing a Czech Language film starring legends of Czech Cinema: Ondrej Vetchy, Jiri Schmitzer, Jan Kacer, Josef Somr and others, based in Prague. Red Green Blue is a psychological thriller, Pulp Fiction meets Irreversible and Memento, based in Prague. We have shot over 1/3 of the film, at 4K and 5K UHD on the Red Epic and plan to finish shooting in March/April. We're currently searching for funding to finalise the film (it's truly independent and low budget ). For now I thought you all might like to take a look at the trailer

I'd love to hear from anyone intereted in coproduction, or just your experiences in low budget/high quality film making. Or any feedback on the trailer would be appreciated Thanks

Cinematography looks fantastic in the trailer. I especially like the lighting in some of nighttime street exteriors. Quality work. Looks like a strong cast too, though my knowledge of Czech cinema is limited to say the least.

My one and only small gripe - the sheer number of characters in the trailer became too much for me to process. I wasn't really sure who the leads were (as distinct from the supporting cast) and I wanted more of an idea of the central 'conflict' in the film. It may just have gone over my head though.

Certain scenes in the trailer strongly suggest 'Irreversible' alright, which may or may not be a good thing for a trailer. You may frighten off a meeker section of your potential audience if they make the mental connection between that film and yours and decide they don't want to revisit the particular trauma of the 2002 film. Your trailer still needs to be representative of your own film though, so I'm not sure what the best approach might be here.

Anyway, wishing you every success with finishing the film. It's looking so good you simply can't stop now! Keep up the independent spirit!
