Fade to Black (my ninja movie)

I don't have a question but I do have a suggestion. It's okay if you filmed this and show it around. But when it comes to distribution on the internet, you might want to consider using a compression codec such as DivX.... I'm pretty sure it would cut down to 200megs if DivX was used.

I've watched 640x480 30 minute long anime's at 100megs. And hour long 640x480 videos at 200megs. If this can be done, you will be able to distribute amongst the masses of slandering internet drones.

unless you're on dial up, it should take you about 5-10 minutes to download AT THE MOST...took me about 4 minutes. so the size doesn't bug me. although it would be better if it was half the size, then i could have watched it 2 minutes earlier

and i somewhat liked it i guess, needed a lot more humor...it was funny....but not 'haha' funny.

nice work though.

Well I'm on DSL at the moment at the speed was limited and it would've taken an hour. I will download this at home on my cable (about 3mb/s on a good night). I will give you my opinion on it, then.

EDIT: I just saw the film, and I thought it was outstanding. It was hilarious in terms of silent but deadly humor. My favorite part was when they were conversing and taking sips from their coffees, but never really showed them actually taking a sip.... good direction. You have a future in Hollywood... specifically in Comedy.

FADE TO BLACK (COMPRESSED!!)

Here you go. This one should be much easier to download.

Thanks for that one, especially since I saw your 400+meg one... lol

I gotta say, the direction in that short was superb.

That deserves a sequel and a possible series to air on Adult Swim or something like that.

Haha, thanks. I don't really do sequels but all my movies occur in the same "universe". Dyne's character is a recurring one.

And like Shakespeare, I borrow from old ideas and themes.

But yeah. Perhaps one or more of the characters could come back. I'm thinking of bringing back the girlfriend for something and the burglar. I love turning bit characters into something bigger.

Also, I'm thinking of writing a film around Dyne's character who works for Pyricle enterprises. It would be an allegorical film which likens the business world to the religious realm. If his character didn't star, he'd at least be in it.
