I found this a while ago while going through my computer. It was made by students at Drexel (my brother used to go there) and I thought some of you guys may enjoy it. I think it's really well done and you should recognize some of the music in there. Comments? Experiences working with film?

and I really want to know how long it took to film that elevator scene.

Predictable, and the top down shot, the one that was the easiest of them all, was horribly unstable. Any good filmmaker knows the tricks to overcomming the angle.

Otherwise, it was really great acting, and the timings were perfect. Only a couple times was I waiting for an angle switch.

Well, now that I've watched it; all I have to say is.... AWESOME. Story of my life, right there. And I loved the use of LoTR music...

1.4 mb/s for me >.>
And after watching it, I think that its awesome!
It totally reminds me of what I had to go through today with my final project.

Does anyone know the names of the songs that they used?

It's totally worth the download, these guys did a really good job with it.

That started playing about two seconds after I clicked the link, and finnished downloading before the movie ended.

Great movie, but a tearjerker there at the end. What is that music at the very beginning?

I really couldn't tell you the songs; I think my brother knows them but he won't be home until after I'll be in bed, so I'll see if I can answer the song questions tomorrow unless you can figure it out before then.

Semicolins are used to connect 2 complete thoughts.

Well, now that I've watched it...==The thought was not completed; it's missing information. The reader asks "Now that you've watched it...what?"

all I have to say is.... AWESOME==Even though you intended it to complete the (half)statement before the semicolin, this thought was completed; it has a subject and a verb.

Semicolons are only punctuation used to show that you've gone to school.

When the one guy fell, the other guy should have picked him up and ran with him. And then, when they got to the school, they should have had to fight off some sort of rabid animal. And after that, the school could catch on fire...

All my brother told me was that there were some songs from Halo in there and the song from LotR (Gandalf's "death"). He was kind of in a hurry so I didn't get much from him.

It's decent. Not alot more than that though. Their cinematography needs some serious work. And it looks like they didn't really care about lighting. If they cinematography had been better, with more dramatic lighting, the music would have worked better. But as it is, it has some real flaws.

I didn't really find it that entertaining.
