Check out the trailer to my movie - BROKEN
Yup, been wanting to make a movie for a few years now. Spent 18 months in pre-production, then shot this feature length film in 26 days. Currently in post-production with the plan for early release 2018. Made on the smell of an oily rag, this is a super low-budget indie film. All the actors were volunteers, except for one - Wayne Hapi, who played alongside Cliff Curtis in "The Dark Horse", a great New Zealand film. Wayne actually wanted to do it for free, but we opted to gift him some money.
We shot it on the Black Magic 4k and a bit on the Pocket. None of the crew had any movie experience going into this project, so a huge learning curve for all. Except for our stunt co-ordinator Augie Davis. He's done a bunch of movies (LOTR, Hobbit, Ghost in the Shell, etc).
My role - writer, director, producer, editor... like I said, indie as! Lol!
To keep this "on topic" for props, see if you can spot a replica prop in the trailer. It's from my own collection. Was fun using a replica prop as an actual prop for my film. Got dropped a few times and thrown around a bit, but I figure it was all adding to the weathered look of the prop. No real guns are used in this movie. Most are just bb guns, some metal, some plastic, which work a treat especially the gas blow-back versions. A bit of muzzle flash in post along with the right sound effect and you're good to go! We had 1 blank firing hand gun, the one in the smoking gun shot, which is actually a burning cigarette shoved down the barrel. Ha ha.
We only loaded the trailer just over a day ago and it's already had over 4.5k views. So please, view away as every view bumps it up the pile.
And a HUGE thank you to everyone here on the RPF. You guys continue to inspire me no end and definitely had a huge part in helping me believe that I could pull this off.
Cheers,
Tarry.
