my beef: not much continuity out doors. i know you said that in your notes, but i'm being a little picky.

Yea, unfortuantly the night comes early down here, so it made keeping the same daylight difficult. Thanks.

I thought some of your shots looked really cool... like the car approaching the gate, and when the leaves went flying as it was driving. Obviously the continuity is bad, but you already said that. I also thought it was a bit lame that there was one guard chasing him, perhaps if you added an alarm going off in the background, and maybe a bunch of voices, it would sound better.

yeah an dmaybe other gunshots going off around them as they run, and ricochets.

sfx can work wonders.

Yea, this was a rushed video. I'm making another one soon which will be much better and not rushed.

Any other comments?

I know there were some flaws. (Compression made it worse, ewwww Green muzzle flashes!) The final movie will be much better (oh my god it will be). It will be sold for a very low price (around $10) and will of course have an awesome trailer before the movie is released.
I'm thinking of adding a "Behind the Scenes" type thing at the end of the movie explaining some of the video's effects (muzzle flashes, air compressed bullet hits, etc..) which would be cool as many of the effects explained here is hard to imagine without videos or pictures. So would that be a good idea?
