So, I finally finished my short film Producing Fiction, formerly titled "Lights, Camera, Action?" It premiered to a crowd of about 100 to laughs, cheers, and applause at the end through almost the entire credits sequence.
Congrats, dressel. The trailer looks pretty well made but it's more of a teaser really. Let us know if the full film ever ends up online.
Ignore Phil's rampant cynicism. The rest of us do.
Yeah, I will. I usually put my shorts online, but YouTube begins to lag after about 10 min. I think I'll try another server.
I'm mainly only selling the DVDs to friends, other film majors, etc. Already sold 21. Not exactly a lot, but still a bit of pocket change. I usually make my films for quite a small amount of money, seeing as I don't write a lot of effects-riden stuff.
I liked the teaser to your short. It looks like it would be pretty good.

There's also been an explosion of shorts lately as technology is getting cheaper and cheaper. Especially shorts made by non pros like students and wanna be's (I'm a wannabe myself). I think people are becoming somewhat jaded or sceptical (hate my English sometimes) when it comes to shorts. Instead of jumping up and down cheering and celebrating, writers ask "show me what you've done before" before they let anyone use their scripts. I guess what I'm trying to say is that the difference in quality in shorts out there vary so much and we tend not to get excited that easily anymore.
Dressel,
I applaude you for making a short and I wish you the best of luck, but maybe you can excuse some of the members for not feeling the rush too.
Peace!
PS. not sure this makes sense, but it did in my head.
About to make money with short video/movie I've heard that a company of distribuition was buying them to exibit them in fligth-airplains, but unfortunatly I don't remember which one, sorry.
Looks like you're working with some serious equipment there! The video looks great. That said, I'd have to see the whole short to comment (which I'd like to). The trailer isn't much of a trailer...it isn't even much of a teaser.

22 min. Like I've said previously, I wanted to upload it to YouTube, but it starts to go out of sync after 10 min, I think I'm going to try DailyMotion.
And I know it's not much of a trailer, but I just wanted to make something fun. That, and I couldn't really make a good trailer.
