Some of you know that I am a filmmaker. I am interested in getting your perspective on my 22 minute short zombie film that I put online in December. Since then I've been re-editing for film festivals and I'd love to hear your input on the film.... www.ScottGoldbergFilms.com/watch.html

I can't believe you made this with just $3,000. OUTSTANDING. I'm going to make the gf watch it later this week. Props dude.

$1,000 for rentals of equipment, food, makeup, etc. $2,000 for insurance and permits. I went to school for this and hope to find investors interested in putting down money for my upcoming projects. Thank you for the kind words.

DANIELLE NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

That was creepy man!! Very well done!

And you played one of the zombies! Were you gnawing bone or munching organ??

I don't know if I can offer much in terms of helpful feedback. Maybe tone down the voice distortion a little bit on the intro because it's intriguing to hear the premise about government involvement, and it's hard to hear and just a little overdone with the "devil" voice.

Overall it was great entertainment!

Yeah, we had trouble with the audio.

I play the zombie that bites Enrique in the leg.

If you guys have any questions, feel free to ask and I'll answer them...

All right, once and for all. What is a gaffer?

A gaffer is someone who helps with rigging the lights and many of the heavy workload for the film. Bringing in the carts of lights, c-stands (used to hold up "flags" which are called "cuculorus" aka "cookies" which could be cutout shapes to screens)... It's confusing, I know.

Good stuff Scott!!!! Great mood setting. Photography and scene shooting is great. Huge plot holes, but you can't get much in 22 minutes anyway.

p.s. Where did everyone all of a sudden get guns from?

Loved it. Onward and upward!

firefly, there was a scene that when shot at the time, sounded good and looked great and had Jamie and Jack finding guns from the dead body of a Special Ops soldier who had been bitten in one of the greenhouses. In the editing process, the way that the two characters interacted when they found the guns was ridiculously said - the acting wasn't terrible - it was the writing of the scene. I co-wrote the script with Caley Bisson and Chiko Mendez, and I felt that the scene was too silly sounding. It went along the lines of:

"Look! Guns!" - Jack
Jack picks up the guns.
"I don't know how to use the guns." - Jamie
"It's easy. Point and squeeze." - Jack
Jack grabs his package.
"You are such an *******." - Jamie
"You love me." - Jack
Silence.
"Come on, let's go." - Jack

Thus connecting to the scene in the greenhouse later on with Jack and Jamie with guns.

It all makes sense now When's the uncut edition coming out? Two disc?

Regardless, judging from your work so far, I reckon, give 100 odd miunutes you could be great. Sam Riami watch out!

I hate to be the one to tell you this, but for $3000 you could have made a pretty good porn flick. But I don't know what your relationship with Chiko is.

Scott and Chiko do the dead guys? I don't think so. Although, that zombie on the left IS kinda hot

A zombie porn? That would give "The Day They Came Back" a whole other meaning...
