    Man ppl give film school a bad wrap, but honestly. Going back to school was such a positive impact on me. Before it I was all over the place. After my first class everything changed. Just learning to organize and spend more time on pre production with story boarding and shot lists and scripting really pushed me. And the assignments with deadlines lit a major fire. ❤. Maybe someone should make a channel that makes something and shares the theme 😂.

    I'm really amazed Teo! I mean, seeing all this, I can already tell that you will become a great filmmaker someday =) (if that is something you plan to be in the future hihi) I don't know much about shooting a short story but man just having an idea like this is wonderful. I just hope we can see more of this in your channel. Good Job!

    The way you translated your vision into the final product its just amazing , and the small details like the wood in the backpack and the dirt on the headgear are the indicators of a real filmmaker, waiting for your next masterpiece 👊

    Oh man, I laughed so hard when it came to painting 😃
    Two things, this sort of plastic definitely requires a primer, as paint won’t stick to that smooth service for long. And scuffing it up before primer is what you should do. But for a single day shoot you’ll be fine.
    The biggest laugh I had was seeing you spray on one spot trying to cover it.
    The clue for a good paint job (don’t they have craft class in schools in Austria? Where they teach wood working, soldering, basic dui?) is to pass back and forth. Over the whole prop. And repeat that until it’s covered. Don’t hose on the same area, that will cause drippies and give a very uneven paint job.
    Oh and one more tip for prop making. Get some styrene sheets they are cheap and those cardboard spikes could’ve been done with styrene and the last a lot longer and easier to paint too.
    But the film idea was brilliant in its simplicity.

    Just subbed so I might find a video like that on this channel when I go through them but do you happen to have a video talking about film school or what it is like? I’m currently debating whether I should go to film school because filmmaking is my dream and passion or study graphic design and try doing sth with graphic design for movies…

    You need to make contact with some local body painters and prop builders. Then you can do the story/cinematography side of things. One of my best mates is all about props. Don’t rely on him for the photos or story though.

    You said "I don't know why I am doing this but I think it looks cool " 01:43
    You need to know that visuals , director, actor,etc serve the story not the other way around
    What you did there is just one way to failure.
    That's actually an interesting ambiguous way to start a story but you got a writer's block , right?
    You need to know more than that just to call it an idea
    I wish you aren't sad because of this advice 🤍
