Topic: Live Action Film Project

Hello guys! I want to show what I've been working on for the last 4 - 6 months. I teamed up with some friends and my brother to start making awesome live action films!

We've doing a starter project codenamed 'Run Joely Run'. Basically some guy has stolen something from a criminal organization and they chase him into the woods and he gets saved. Its very weak but its a starter project. The reason why its taken so long is because we've been trying to find out the easiest and quickest way to do a film and make it top quality. For this project we are having original music and all of the sounds will be re-produced.

I've written about it in more detail in my blog with includes photos and a video which I will post here also. I will write more blog posts on the release of the film and the making of it.

Heres the video. Its test video that we did for the film. We went to the location and made some tests to get ideas etc. Its quite rough. The sound isn't very good and the music I would give credit to who made it if I knew who they were.

A lot of layers, but not as many as some other shots.

I'm not 100% sure if this should be in the 'Other Films' thread or not.

Re: Live Action Film Project

When will the official video be done?  Also, what program did you use for the special effects?

EDIT:  Is the guy with the glasses on you or someone else?

Re: Live Action Film Project

I haven't got a date in mind, but hopefully in the next month. I want to be done with it and move on.

I used Adobe After Effects to do the visual effects, including compositing stock footage from the Action Movie Essentials 2 Pack into the shots.

No the guy with the glasses isn't me, but I do wear glasses mini/smile I don't star in this film unfortunately

That's looking pretty cool. I'm looking forward to the finished product.

Re: Live Action Film Project

Adobe After Effects isn't free, is it?

My question is if the language will be obscene.

There will be no strong language.

Good. mini/smile

Re: Live Action Film Project

I went out with Luke (my brother) to record some foley and background sound effects to replace the original audio. He mixed some of it and I put together a little preview for you guys including some of the awesome music.

View it in my blog.

Re: Live Action Film Project

I think this film will actually be called 'Run Joely Run'.
