it's been a long road and i still have a lot ahead of me but here's a segment of the film that's closest to being complete.
This is an unadvertised url, so i'm only sharing it with you guys here (and cast/crew). Hope you enjoy- the fx work has taken over 40 hours to complete. I've tried to keep this balance between realism and the spirit of the cartoons (particularly the laser fire fights) which as you can imagine is very conflicting! I decided to exaggerate the tracer fire to achieve some of that feel. What's incomplete here? all audio is not here - soundtrack, effects, dialogue. and the composite effects still need to be tweaked for better integration into the original footage. Also, the youtube version came out darker than the original. What else? Well that's what i'd like you fellow fans to help me with! Let me know what you think works, and what you think doesnt! We all walk out of films saying, "That'd be cooler if... They should have..." This film is result of that type of conversation in a lot of ways!!

not knowing egzactly whats going on, I felt the scene was very ackward, he basically laid on a bunch of guns made some humping gestures and screams and everyone dies. I get that he's injured and making a last stand but the Cobra Troopers just looked like they were walking into a computerized wall of blood.
Beachhead is a Ranger he would have booby trapped his postion with trip wires and claymores and such and gone out with a bang. If you are going to kill a major character like that make it more personal, have him up against a wall with his 45. picking guys off to the last bullet and when he becomes overwhelmed and they surround him, a zoom in to reveal an explosive device and a devilsh grin on his face as he blows them and himself away to buy time for his team. Just my 2c

For a fan film. I really enjoyed it. I like the stylized look you have and the grittiness. I also like the tracers, smoke and blood. Even if it's a bit over the top. It's super fun action!
Be careful asking too many people about what they like and don't like, because then your film will never get done. My 2 cents would be to choose your shots wisely when it comes to Snake Eyes. If you don't have an actor who is extremely versed in martial arts and sword handling. It won't hold up well. |

Thanks! I totally know what you mean! The guy i got for Snake Eyes is a martial artist and just opened his own kung fu school in PA. He was a background soldier of the Fire Nation tribe in The Last Airbender. The footage looks pretty good so far. still have a lot of post to do on it though
