Subscryption - Real TV

Subscryption - Real TV

Since, my submission is point here, I intented to do two short films! But, only was able to complete one. We could not get the location to shoot one. I really started late, shooting one week before deadline. Slacker. So, next time, no two submission. And no waiting for last minute. And finally find me some actors with experience!

I'm been using my friends which they do a great job! Couldn't do it without them, but none of them are actors!

Finding actors in craigslist is a crap shoot, next time I'm holding auditions or not filming at all.

I gotta work on that poster now.
 
How do I change the title of the thread to from paranoid -working title to Subscryption - A film by R.U.S.T.E.S.
 
A good story with an interesting concept.

The audio was extremely low or extremely high at points throughout the short.
 
Good story/concept... and good work getting a film together and entered in the fest! As stated before, there were some audio problems that makes it difficult to get into the movie. The acting could be better too. Thanks for sharing & keep making films.

Pre-Production: Worked on two scripts, Subscryption & Paranoid. Paranoid I worked with a friend, we decided to film Paranoid. But, we could not get a key location and our lead actor ended up being busy so had to cancel film two weeks before deadline. So, with one week left, I decided to shoot Subscryption pretty much with my gf helping.

Monday: I filmed the bedroom couple scene using my friends - 8pm-11pm
My friend drops out of playing cable guy; I called another friend, he says he's up for it.
Tuesday: Found lead actress on craigslist...
Wednesday: Lead actress didn't show or return calls shoot cancel with cable guy scene.
Thursday: Film Family Dinner Scene using friends 9pm-12am. Found Lead actress from craigslist.
Friday: No shooting
Saturday Morning: Cable guy scene. 11am-2pm
Saturday Evening: Drug addict scene 9pm-1am
Sunday pre-dawn: 1am-4am Lead actress reacting to the TV, making phonecall
Sunday Night: EDIT
Monday Morning: EDIT SOME MORE
Finished at 1pm, export at 1:54pm and uploaded 1:56pm with 2pm deadline eastern time.
 
I have to say... I REALLY liked this! There were some problems, which is too bad.
A little more polish and this could be a real contender.

The cable guy and your lead actress were both very good! The cable guy was pretty natural. Her reaction to one or two scenes on the TV were a little off but I'm sure that was hard for her to do. Next time record the effects you need for the TV and play them on the actual TV while shooting. The effects work really brought me out of it. You could have done all of those effects practically and quite easily.

Loved the ENDING!

The whole story really intrigued me from the start.
I just hope that guy didn't swear in front of the kid like that. There was actually really no reason for her to even be in that scene.

Overall, this was good. I loved the atmosphere that you captured while using the theme effectively.

Cheers,

Mike
