Thanks, alot of that is to do with my editor, a talented guy called Simon Burdall (Who edited "No Time...") Kept the CCTV footage to a minimum (We actally filmed severeal shots of them assending the stairs) > The actor who plays the newsreader is quite good. Does he > study film with you? The Actor playing the news reader is a guy that studies performing arts at my college, this poject washis fist on screen performance, I was pleased with his peformance but I found him quite sroppy at times. > BTW, what did you think of the camerawork in "The Blair > Witch Project"? Not the film as a whole but just the > camerawork. Some of the scenes you filmed remind me of > that film's camerawork. I've not seen Bliar Witch Recently enouth to jugde the camera work, I do howevr remeber it serving as a constabaton aid as it scared the shit out of me !!!!! Romeroe's own "found footage" film called "Diary of the dead" is by far the best of its kind, have you seen it? Thanks once again for your kind words | |
