    I actually thought of another tricky one, involving a bar fight. I have mentioned in other threads I wasnt sure how to pull this off, but we have it now. We will be using a room behind Reben and Sams church. In the afternoon, we'll take the rooms furniture out. We then will construct the bar, and add the furniture. By that evening we will have rehearsed the scene ready for a late night shoot. The next day we will take the room to pieces again, and put it back the way it was. Time consuming and fairly tricky, but a cool shot (I hope)

    Surely you appreciated the humour in my first post here?

    I do my best to lighten up this forum, but sometimes I don't know why I bother...

    Well, the last I had heard Azeem and Morpheus had seen the trailer but had not made a decision on it. Seeing the plethora of new films since then (about a week and a half ago) I can understand why. I hope to hear from them soon. Hopefully they won't begrudege me the following:

    BFTZ trailer can be found at http://artisticwhispers.homestead.com/files/trailer.rm http://artisticwhispers.homestead.com/files/trailer.rm
    It's in RealVideo format.
    The page for the film is at http://artisticwhispers.homestead.com/files/bftz.html http://artisticwhispers.homestead.com/files/bftz.html

    Another tough effect: A blaster hit on an arm. I actually wound up using a compressed air bullet hit, but instead of filling the pouch with blood I filled it with barbecue ash, so it made a nice cloud of smoke, In post production I added in a lens flare (which colored the smoke so it looked like a flame) and then the blaster bolt itself. It's one of those that was easy to pull off once I figured out how to get convincing smoke without setting myself on fire.

    Thanks for the encouragement, guys! I'll tell you how it turns out.

    Scream - The trailer worked fine for me... time for a re-install, perhaps?

    Lokmer - these recent films must have been approved many weeks prior to their release, if my film is anything to go by...

    Perhaps they are concerned with the 'cartoon violence'? Hmmmm....

    How can people be bored when TFN is releasing so much variety of quality trailers and tests these days?

    I just watched the latest 'Way Of The Force' trailer. It rocks... IMHO looks to me like the best combination so far of story/cgi/sabre fights etc from any fan film....

    And if that's not enough, now we have 'Matrix Jedi' to look forward to!

    Bored? phooey!!!

    Saeed TTC

    PS Notice how I mentioned all that without referring to my own film in any way...heh heh... oh, I just mentioned it now... never mind..

    hardest thing to edit, says Josh, is your sabers when you and Reuben are fightin full ball, which u always are.
    apart from that, our shot's shouldn't be that hard

    Heh, it's about as bad as having to work with me, Scream Man. ::smirk::

    As for what it really was, Lok . . . that would be telling. You'll recognize it when the film's released. It's the only thing comparable with insanity.

    Ok, Saeed, here's another one. LOL! I don'[t have to go back and read it, it cracked me up and I still remember it.

    Well, I'm off to see the lizard. I hope I come back alive (actually, our stunt man backed out at the last minute, so I hope Abby...Someone - who now has to do this rather foolhardy bit of acrobatics - comes back alive). See you guys this evening!
