Fantastic. But what the hell is with the smiley face at the end??? Lose that and I'd give you two thumbs up.

Nicely done...what did you use to create your ending credits?

Like the "Furp" segment, the humor is little off but the production value is a "10".

Great cinematography (Using the M2 there's virtually no way to tell this wasn't shot on film), great use of FX and like Dee, I'm curious about the software used to create your end-credit animation. (?)

I'm also curious which lenses were used for this project. Most M2 users are using 50mm f/1.2 or 1/4's but I see some shots that look like it might have even been an 85mm. (?)

Looks great... but what's up with Obin now using a HVX instead of a DVX + Andromeda??! :-D

Funny stuff, good lead in. Nice intro of the cop with the pan right.

Personally, I'd end it with a sound of screaching tires and popping a stop sign into full view. About a 1 second piece to drive the point home.

well done mate!!! Love the crane shot...

Also nice techniques or I believe it's FCP pro that did the shake when the cop was hittin the teenager :) in action scenes cameras always shake if the subject isn't a very experienced actor...

Loved the clip 2 thumbs up mate!!! and the SMILEY totally kicked ass!!!!

Well done... best wishes

Obin, once You got to answer to bunch of questions don't forget crane as well. What crane and what wideangle lens on the crane?

hm is it only me or was there some vignetting and edge unsharpness going on at the wideangle crane shot?! :-/

Definitely, and I thought it looked cool.

Obin, that was great! I especially enjoyed the moment where the cop stopped for 1/2 a second, hesitates, then resumes the merciless beating. LOL.
