This is a trailer for a movie I am currently trying to film for a senior project. It is extremely ambitious for a first time project, but it is the challenge that makes it worthwhile. Should be done by April/May of 2004.
All scenes were filmed in Maine and composited by myself on Adobe After Effects, Adobe Premiere on PC, and Shake and Final Cut Pro 4 on Mac (and of course Alam DV). Incidently does anyone know what that clicking at the end of the .MOV file comes from? It definately was not in the soundtrack, and didn't show up when I made an .AVI file. No matter what kind of .MOV compression I used the clicks were always there. Any thoughts?
My greatest inspirations: probably the battle scene in Forrest Gump, and any part of Enemy at the Gates.
My biggest challenge: finding good actors. Very difficult; almost impossible.
If you visit my web-site be nice. Websites aren't my thing, so as you will see it is very simple. I just have one because I need a place to call my home on the web. Check out my movie poster as well:

he got the backlit volumetric light effect by using the now cliched Shine, or a variation of effects to reproduce Shine
not too bad. I'm assuming these are supposed to be US soldiers? if so, what are they doing carrying SiG SG 550s?
one last thing. . . . not that Kate Beckinsale isn't easy on the eyes, but what's with the poster?

I really liked it. Especially the text at the end, with the blue shifting behind the words GHOST SOLDIERS. How did you do that? It was really cool. Really great stuff there!
