Paul Deckard is a cold blooded, professional killer, working unofficially for the government. After a terrible mistake he wants to quit his job.
But the government now sees him as a threat and wants to liquidate him.
From now on, Deckard is on the run...

"Direct Cause" is a low-budget movie which will premiere early in 2010. The length will be approx. 40 minutes.

Preproduction began in June.

It was shot on the Canon XH-A1 in 10.5 days (spread over 6 weekends in August and September). One day remaining for a retake of a scene.

For the long take we had a professional steadicam operator with his real hollywood steadicam on set, that was fun! :P

Our Equipment includes a Kesslercrane Cameracrane, DVtec Multirig Shoulder Mount and a Lowel Super Ambi Lighting Set.

Thank you. About the voiceover... Of course everyone knows what a Freelancer is. But the kind of "ironic" and cold explanation of what he is and does just works this way. ("... but is not bound to their rules. The same goes for me, the only difference is, I work for the government.") And as well the part with the "extended possibilities" But if you don't like it, that's your thing, cheers

In short: very good technicals. Things that don't work: The poorly written voiceover. (everyone knows what a "Freelancer" is. No need to define it.)

Awesome steadycam work. Visually, this is really cool. A great stunt (fantastic to see something like that) and excellent lighting. The only thing that can't keep up with the high level production values is the voiceover. The acting just doesn't really click for me. Might be the english language. And the last third of the teaser seems a bit odd too, especially compared to the rather fantastic opening. Overally, this certainly makes one see more! I'm definately looking forward to seeing more of it all. Shame I wasn't able to make my part in it. Maybe next time. Shall be fun to see how it all works out. Good luck with it all!
