Hey everyone! This is my high school tech fair project this year. I am 16, and wanted to make a movie this year. I entered it into digital video editing. The tech fair is this Saturday…
The reason I posted it here is that in the few scenes that have 3d effects, they were all created with Blender, so I thought it necessary to post here. C&C are accepted, although I won’t have enough time to remake it or redo any of the graphics. We basically had a three week time period to throw this together, and the zombie took me quite a while to make before we actually started the movie. I also learned alot about texturing and rigging during this process. All of these scenes used a very simple lighting set-up though since we didn’t have much time to get it together after filming.
Well…I hop you have as much fun watching it as I did making it ;)…and the best part(with most of the blender graphics) is at the end…so you might want to watch it.
Yeah, sorry about that…I also had lots of problems with wind(like when the old man appeared outside)…I did the best I could with the materials and time I had…Thanks for the reply!
I think you did a great job, given the resources available to you. Just finishing such a project is a great accomplishment. I’m also impressed that you are taking on some rather challenging effect shots. The nice thing about struggling through a movie project is you now understand the challenges that are ahead for your next project. Keep up the good work.
Not bad. The effects were pretty good for a first production, especially seeing as how you got live characters to interact with cgi. Very impressive!
The lighting for your CGI characters was not right, and didn’t match the scene. So it stood out that it was fake. The indoor character guy was alright but.
Also, you’re film making skills leave much to be desired. 10 minutes is way too long for a short film. In a short film, your audience has a short attention span, so only include crucial plot points. But hey, I’m a film buff, so maybe I’m just being picky.
But I will say that I see a lot of short films, and this was above average. You included wit, a plot and special effects. As teasel said, just finishing that is an accomplishment. So be proud! And be happy knowing that you’re next film will be even better!
