V-656

Producer by default. Director/Writer(with others on this one)/DP/Editor/Special Effects Supervisor/Sound Effects Editor. I know nothing about music except knowing what I like, so we have an excellent musician scoring our film. My crew are friends, family and one guy who writes movie reviews for the local newspaper. We all got involved for the fun of it. Nothing very deep in the subject matter, but we hope everybody gets a few laughs out of our effort.

Finished! Screening today for cast and crew at a Forth of July picnic at my daughter's and son-in-law's. Saw it for the first time on my 52 inch flat screen last night. Man, I love hi-def, but it sure is a pain in the ass for effects rendering. I can actually relax today and tomorrow for a change. Hope everyone out there has a happy holiday and that your films are nearing the finish line. Should be some great viewing coming up!

CONGRATULATIONS! I'm almost done too. None of my cast and crew have seen a thing and I can't wait to show it to them. Have fun at your screening!
 
Awesome new poster. Love it.
(Did you know that your film link in the uploads seems to be wrong?)
 
I guarantee this smashes Transformers 3 in spirit and probably in story as well.
Break a leg or should I say.... servo... :thumbsup:

Thanks, Anthony. In spirit, maybe, but certainly not in budget!

(Glad to see "Psychopathy" got made - and by ZAZA no less. I'm waiting to see his take on it.)

SPOILER REVIEW:
First off, my hat is off to you for integrating so much CG with this. I've tried, and I just can't do it. So a huge thumbs up for live action / CG integration.

I actually really enjoyed the story. You should tell your actors they did great. I've directed kids before, and it was NOT fun. So good job on that.

Did you design the robots yourself? Each of them was really neat ... you know, except the boys' robot. :grin:

I also liked finding out their teacher didn't really die, but was a robot himself. That was a nice touch. It was a little morbid seeing him explode in front of them.

It's hard for me to make the next critique, though, because I DON'T understand what it takes for CG integration, but it just felt like they two bigger robots weren't really there. Maybe it was the coloring, or UV Mapping or ... I don't know. Also, don't hear what I'm NOT saying. I'm not saying it was bad by any means. It was still awesome, but something just felt a little off on it.

Again, congrats on a job well done. Tell those kids they earned their pay!


 
Cute little film... the kid's rocked it!

Spoiler:
This kind of film/cartoon-ish thing isn't my cup-o'-tea so it's hard to critique. I know this HAD to have taken a LOT of work to put together, but it didn't seem to gel for me. I liked the design of the different robots(Bob was best) and all, but the stand-out was the kids preformances. They all did a great job. Taylor really stood-out to me...she nailed it! :thumbsup: Like I said...cute film...but that last line? :huh: Keep them coming, I look forward to your next film.
