Well here's some shit me and my friends did for a college project a few years ago that I recently found on a DV-tape and decided to tidy up a bit.
The project brief was we had to shoot some short films and we were only allowed to use 6 different shots per film and the whole film had to be only 45-60 seconds, and we could only edit on-camera, so no fancy Adobe Premiere or anything, plus we only had 3 hours to film 6 movies. The other four movies got taped over, which is a shame cos one of them was the best, probably because I directed and filmed.
Ever tried to edit only on-camera? Like filming one shot, then another shot then another, and that's the final edit? It sucks balls.
We got high marks for this shit though, even though in honesty it sucked, but I was messing about a few weeks ago and I came across the footage and decided to load it into Premiere and kinda clean up the crap editing and add soundtracks and special effects, just for fun.
The friends that I made the videos with, we planned to make a Yorkshire kung-fu movie, cos we all could adequately fight and use weapons and I can do CGI, but I kinda fell out with them over something stupid, so it never happened past a script.
Well, here they are. Don't expect anything spectacular, they're just things I felt like posting for a laugh, cos I felt like adding them for no real reason. They're about 9mb each, I wanted to keep them highish quality. They're RARed too, if you don't have WinRAR, then you should get it, install it and keep it, you hooligans. Enjoy, or don't.

You neither have WinRAR or want it? Well you're missing out.
What WinRAR does is stands above WinZIP, pulls down it's WinRAR pants, squats down and shits all over WinZIP, then uses a WinRAR feather duster to smear the shit, just to rub in how much better WinRAR is. That's the disgustingly graphic way of describing it.
In other words, any self respecting computer user has WinRAR, and if they don't then it will benefit them to get it.
Don't really care if you download my crappy movies, but I'm telling you it is something you shouldn't be without, unless you have something better which can RAR and un-RAR files.
I wanna see, infact I have already download, your movies. My plan was to download winRAR when windows figured it couldnt open the file, but it took me to this site that wanted me to pay for the program, so I was like,'no way.'
Gimmee a free WinRar link, please, if you've got one, cos I like seeing homemade movies
'oh yeah? he's thrown a kettle over a pub, what have you done?'
I must say Windows Movie Maker 2 compresses movies really good. I got an 8 minute one down to 1mb with no lost frames and radio quality sound. It was really amazing. I usually do about 3mb though.
Steve Zissou: Anne-Marie, do all the interns get Glocks?
Istvan -> Goto the official site at www.rarsoft.com and download the trial. The only prob is a nag screen that you'll quickly learn to live with. Imho, it's not as annoying as the one in winzip.
...or you download IZarc. It can't compress RAR files, but it'll extract them. It both extracts and compresses ZIP and it's all for FREE! *end sales pitch*
- Ok, you must admit that was the most creative cussing this site have ever seen -
One day I'll get chance to make my kung-fu film and it will be epic.
Notice how shit the camerawork was on the chase one? It was the last one we filmed and everyone was bored out of their minds and hung over from the previous night, and the camerman really couldn't be arsed. I actually cut a lot of the shots short in Adobe Premiere cos they were bad, really wobbly and bollocks.
Random facts: In the Mission Impossible one, the nunchucks bloody broke the bloody gun into about three bloody pieces.
When the tutor saw the movies, we got into trouble for bringing nunchucks and replica guns into college.
Other films we did that day had my friend going for a run through college and ending up in a small restaurant (which was the college creche, complete with children's chairs) and drinking Bisto. Another involved a meeting cut short by an attack of diarrhea, ending with someone taking a jumbo dog sausage for a walk, but it runs away.
