I made a short film. It's about 90 percent comedy with a little suspense and horror thrown in. Grateful to anyone who gives it a shot.

You have it starting a couple minutes in for your link. And here, I'll embed it for you starting from the beginning.

Newman! I'm not going to say anything negative because it's better than what I can do. Keep up the hard work. Post more if you can so I can see how your craft has grown.

I enjoyed it overall. I agree with the other poster in that the mailman was a bit of a Charlie Kelly character, which isn't a bad thing. It worked.

Did you actually shoot the movie with old equipment? Or did you add some filter to make it look like that? It was odd seeing the iphone on the tripod filming the scene with all the takes, while the actual movie I'm watching looks like it is from 2001.

Why the decision to make this thing look vintage?

Thanks for watching! We actually did shoot it on an old early 2000s camera. But we also added in some of the old vhs effects and sounds in post production.

A friend of mine came across his childhood camera and was just like “let’s make something with this.” And then my other friend had this idea of a comedy with us living in a crappy apartment. And I felt like the vibe of the old camera kind of just fit with the premise. Kinda like trailer park boys or early seasons of Always Sunny. I kind of think looking crappy makes it a little funnier in a way. Also made it cheaper and easier to shoot.
