I have finally finished my first short film, "Briefcase". While I decided I'm not going to release it or screen it until May 2009 for personal reasons, I have made a 50 second teaser which you can view now.
HD Teaser on Vimeo
Information about the Film
-=Synopsis=-
Part of a local crime families' new arsenal of hitmen, Vincent, a young but experienced assassin, is sent to a home on the north shore of Long Island to fulfill a contract. However, things take a turn for the worst when the situation turns out to be a setup.
-=Notes=-
The master version is encoded with 5.1 surround sound. The Vimeo version is down-mixed to stereo and the video quality is bad as well. This is my first short-film.
Running Time: 10m 22s
Production Time: 1 month

I have to send it in the mail by March 25th, but I will be enhancing it after that until I like it and then I will post in on Vimeo and youtube. My friends are also trying to convince me to throw a premiere party for it...it's only like 10 minutes long though. lol

Too bad the slide on the pistol did not go back even though the gun is discharging =P

Yea I did it for a few other scenes but got lazy for this one. Good eye though, although it happens so fast when playing that you wouldn't be able to notice.

The movie is done and I am waiting until May to show anybody. Here is a quick trailer/teaser video from it. I suck at uploading to Vimeo so the quality, even in HD, is pretty bad to my standards. Regardless, enjoy!
UPDATE:
50 Second Teaser

I updated the first post and the trailer is now HD. It still looks like shit for some reason though. Vimeo compression fraks up my video.

The internet usually fraks stuff up. Looking forward to see the film though, as a amateur movie maker!
