Film
Mechanical Mayhem
Description
Welp, I worked on this project from March - November of 2004. After the good part of a year, I had completed about 10% of the visual effects shots I had planned for the film. This was mainly because I was figuring everything out... and it was painfully frustrating. If my plot was especially strong, and my actors especially convincing, I may have spent another... year... finishing the movie. But I didn't even have a finished script, although I had over 6 full tapes of footage, there was a lot more I needed to get. I think my basic plot was pretty good (it's got a huge punchline at the end), but it lacks complexity. And good dialogue.
So, I gave up on the project. The trailer you see here is essentially a mash-up of the visual effects clips I finished. (Check out those digital birds!) I think the trailer turned out cooler than the movie would have been. Hope you like it!
