I tried to make a fan film

Crits. welcome and it's not officially live yet so please let me know if you have any sound\video issues.

Yes - quite enjoyed that.

Good CGI etc.

Thanks Chappers.

Anyone else?

HI mate,

The c3p0 bit looked the best visually. The Terminator skull didn't sit right for me. Maybe exposing to much robo skull as the mouth of the T800 doesn't move but the actors does. The HUD's were good though.

Very nice, when did DIY CGI get so good?

I like the way you're confident enough with the characters to make it self referential and make it work.

Cheers Gav, yeah the Terminator CGI wasn't as good as I wanted. The problem I had was with tracking markers on the lover jaw and having to cover them up. Just a rookie mistake.

I've just re-read your comment and even I didn't realise the Terminators jaw wasn't moving :$

The CGI was mostly done with free open source software that is capable of much better stuff than this.

Thanks SootyJ. Yeah I thought I would try something a bit different and not worry too much about going viral. Also I think the actors did really well on this one, especially considering they're just my mates doing it for a laugh.

Oh it's quirky enough for viral.

Look mate I'm always hyper critical so don't worry bout my comments :)

If you watch the end of T3 Arnie has similar damage to you're actor so good for reference.

And continue to be so! You pointed out something I'd completely missed so good to know for next time.

Next project, if I can get it to work has some crazy CG and hopefully about 10 actors in.

I thought this was really good, Shoepie. :D

That was good. The one on the right has a hint of David Mitchell about him, especially when he started ranting at the camera.
