Photobooth
 
I'm currently an intern for a production company working on a short film called PHOTOBOOTH. It's a sort of horror/comedy and looks to be coming along well. They've raised funds and are now looking to shoot the film, so if you know any good abandoned shopping malls, let me know!

Take a look over at https://www.facebook.com/PhotoBoothFilm.

"Working security at an abandoned shopping centre. At night. Yeah, it’s a bit creepy. But a job’s a job, right? And what’s the worst that could happen?

Sometimes, your imagination isn’t the only thing that’s running wild."

Scarecrow from outer space
 
The project I am creating is a full length student film entitled "Scarecrow from Outer Space". The plot is quite simple: an alien ship crashes in the desert after failing to make a proper landing in the Midwest. What is aboard this ship? Well, a killer scarecrow from outer space!
I am trying to combine the simple, fun, and some times cheesy feel of a 1950's B-movie with the look of a modern independent film. "Scarecrow from Outer Space" is, as you may have guessed, a film about a scarecrow from outer space crashing in the desert. The film will follow a similar plot structure as the original Sci-Fi/Horror films of the 50's, but the film will be shot in color and take place in present day. This film will bring that nostalgic feel to those who grew up watching these films on TV in 1960's and still have the ability to gain the attention of a new generation. The film will be shot by film students at Arizona State University. We are all very excited and passionate about it so check it out! A teaser trailer should be up some time in the next week. The pages will be updated regularly.
Thanks-

2 Horror films I did. One of them is titled "A Night to Kill" which is a crime/horror comedy while the other is supposed to just be a creepy toned very short film with no dialogue, but got the idea partially off The Strangers.

Very Hitchcockian.

I actually thought that this was pretty creepy and well-done:

Just finished watching all the Fewdio horror shorts. The majority of which are really good.

Fearonsarms 07-26-2012 02:25 AM

I've been watching the old short films of Kenneth Anger so far I've seen:

Fireworks (1947) The one to watch. Highly recommended. Surprising to see such violence and gore in a film from the forties. Though do not watch it if you think the word gay means stupid.

Puce Moment (1949) No idea what the point of this was. Avoid it completely and do not watch.

Rabbit's Moon (1950) Just about watchable but only for Anger fans.

Eaux D'Artifice (1953) Stupid time waster. Don't bother with it.

Green Glass Door
 
A short film my team made for a 48 Hour Hour Film Project. After drawing a genre we had 48 hours to complete the film. We also had to use a specific prop, character and line of dialogue. I hope everyone likes it. Thank you.

First off, it really shouldn't have taken you three years....Say less, do more. You're script is ridiculously naive and people are pretty much narrating their actions at times. If you aren't a good writer then cut the script down to the bare minimum and work on building tension or interest in other ways. Editing is a bit crap, the fades are just clumsey and you should be able to knock stuff out at this standard in hours, not years. Story is kinda tedious in general. I could say the acting is bad, but to be honest that is to be expected in zero budget stuff anyway and its nowhere near as bad as the dialogue anyway.

I'm sure you will read that and be disappointed by the amount of negative feedback, but in my defense, I did sit through the whole thing and it is pretty bad! If you really want any advice and plan on continuing with this project I would advise you scale things back, make shorter videos based on single scenes and work out exactly what you are trying to accomplish with the scene. Anything that doesnt aid towards that goal, discard or refine. Its better to end up with a 30 second clip of something decent than 15 minuites of dross.

Banetigerseeker 12-01-2012 09:52 AM

@Straker

No problems Straker! Honestly, negative feedback was expected, and I think such feedback can go a long way in helping my little group improve.

Thanks for taking the time watch it and giving feedback, I really do appreciate it.

The Slender Effect (2013)
 
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CddBJZJ4HVE

My newest child. It's a surrealistic take on Slender Man. The film doesn't require any preknowledge about Slender Man in order to be enjoyed.

There will be no blood or gore - instead paranoia in the vein of lovecraft and other masters of the weird will occur.

A couple of friends were responsible for this one. I especially love that Adam Savage of Mythbusters and Penn Jillette from Penn & Teller star in it. A fun nod to old school campy horror.

I put it in the last seen movie area since it's good and people don't seem to come to this area a lot.

This one's a decent paranormal activity spin off - I've had dealings with the director in the past. Nice guy & Pretty cool film for a no-budget starter:

Zombie survivor group therapy short
 
Here's a short film I made about a bunch of people who survived a zombie outbreak and get together in a therapy group.

Zero budget short didn't turn out exactly the way I wanted, but I'd love it if you took a look, left a comment (good and bad). Local theater actors were used as well as people from the local indie film scene. The screenplay did win an award for best short at the RIP Horror Festival last year. So there's that at least.
