Topic: A Brief Case at Hand

So, yeah.

At least we had fun doing it smile

Of course, feel free to watch in 1080p. It looks remarkably good, for my standards.
I even used a makeshift steadycam-ish rig, aka a tripod.

Re: A Brief Case at Hand

That's great! I would have liked some frantic clawing at the briefcase as the end or a head bouncing toward the camera, but it was pretty cool.

You could have done more of a punchline by having him see another person and call for help, and that person shows that he or she is also cuffed to a briefcase. That person explodes, and our protagonist becomes frantic.

Maybe he notices two boulders butted together and swings the briefcase into the crevice so that the stones protect from the explosion when the bomb goes off.

Dazed but out of immediate danger, he stumbles to a Lamborghini parked nearby.....

I'm not going to kid you, it starts to get a little expensive at that point.

Warning: I'm probably rewriting this post as you read it.

The punchline idea is awesome. The others.. Expensive, yeah.

As for the end bit, it was literally thrown together in 30 minutes. I was originally planning to go for a much more complex shot, but I realized it wasn't necessary to get the point across, so I scrapped it, and made a half-ass stock-footage-shot instead. tongue

EDIT: The punchline idea might even make it into a 'sequel' or alternative viewpoint skit at some point in time.

Faldor and Zarban approves, eh? Now I only need Dave, Paulou and that cunt who replied my Norway-vid to approve, and my world domination can finally... Oh, right.

I'm going to assume "that cunt" is me.  sad  Sorry bro, I meant that in good fun, although I can see how it might come off as a bit dick-ish.

Please accept my heartiest approval for your latest effort.  May you be one step closer to your plan for world domination.
