Got it to work.

Very interesting Riley. I liked it. I liked the handheld shots in the jeep after he had been taped up. I actually kinda laughed when he jumped up really quick in his des....reminds of the times in high school when I did the same thing. Everyone just kinda turns around and stares at you just like the students did in your video.

Looks like you can 'right click save as' the video, have to click the link and let it buffer.

Nice work Riley, but the audio was pretty distorted in some places for me. I half expected some zombies to lurch out at him when he's wandering the halls, has a bit of a '28 Days Later' feel to it in that section!

Cheers,
Brian

I like the shift to the world where he wakes up into.

I though it took really too long to get into that world. I skipped ahead half a minute into the teacher's assignment speech.

Nice handheld work when he wakes up. I like the tone too. THe kid was pretty good. Lots of good shots in that sequence when he's grabbed by the thugs.

Audio was low budget.

This is neither here nor there but by coincidence I've been listening to Goldfrapp's "Utopia" endlessly today!

Sony Trv740, but i spent about 2 weeks editing, color correcting, Magic Bulleting (and i have a very fast computer/render farm) etc

i cant wait to get a 3 chip camera, less time color correcting and de-artifacting
