He seems to be returning to a modern house though, as if the curse that left the mercenary blind to sunlight also made him immune to the passage of sunrises and sunsets...
For a short film that was fantastic!! beautifully done, to be honest my favorite part was the follower returning to fulfill his promise. Very powerful.
great film, but the credits should say Visual FX not Special FX. Most people get it wrong. Special FX are FX done on site in front of the camera. Visual FX are effects done in postproduction on a computer. If you ever want to collaborate on something, I'm willing to help. :)
It was good but maybe a little more research on the weapons and armor used in that area might have been good. The Targe was missing the central spike. No big deal but why not be accurate?
I never understood the single shoulder pad outfits for fantasy warriors. I mean, they only protect the one shoulder, unless they are there to make them look menacing, but that doesn't help protect them
Excellent! The cinematography, especially, is very well handled, likewise the editing. The only thing I would have different is the subtitles, which I would prefer to have been optional. They are a distraction. Let's have more!
Interesting story and cinematography is outstanding. A beautiful location for filming also! Those creatures looked very impressive too. I think you have all done a brilliant job, considering you had no budget! I'm also working on a film myself which is fantasy based! Checkout the latest interview with myself and co directors Lexx James and Tracer Ital discussing the film 'Okora: The Prelude'. Film will be available next year after film festival debut! Until then, let me know what you think!
Ahahha guys! Great job....Guys though we and far apart also speak different languages, but our love to a fantasy allows us motivation to shoot the movies. You won't believe but if watch our movie, you will find a lot of the similar. We think lonely sometimes!
I liked the story and the execution... is, for zero budget, astounding. My only two complaints would be that the opening montage had some serious issues with inconsistent color (probably shot on two different cameras with no color matching done in post) and that the fighting sucked. I know that zero budget indie fighting is extremely difficult, but a lot of things could be done with smarter staging rather than just flinging the camera wildly around. The cinematography (aside from the fighting, that is) was really good and that forest was a cinematographic godsend! Really nice, atmospheric location there. The lighting (especially the indoor candlelit shots) was great and the VFX for the darkness of the shamans is really, really good. Overall, this is a fantastic example of what can be done without a budget, but with lots of talent and ingenuity. Thank you.
Jessie Johnson The stranger hired a mercenary (the POV character) to help him fight a powerful enemy with dark magic. The mercenary managed to kill this enemy, but was cursed in the process. The stranger said he was not ready to help relieve the mercenary of his curse yet, but promised to return once he was. Years later, the mercenary has become a hermit because of his curse. That last shot was of the stranger returning to fulfill his promise of helping the mercenary who had once helped him.
Love to speak with one time I agree with alot of what you say! I have a very unique perspective of the struggles that you have! At same time I don't know what it's like to be you but me I was rased in very poor neighborhoods where I was always the minority! I think you're very well spoken for any man and most what you say is right on! Well call me chat with me maybe we can help each other do something about it! Yours truly.
