Gamblour.:
My theatre troupe and production company just finished a new short film. Please waste time by watching it. Also, this is my first sort of foray into sound effects work, so any feedback in that regard would be cool. Thanks guys.

RegularKarate:
It was pretty funny.  My favorite part is when he drinks the bottle.

As far as the SFX go, did you create them all from scratch?  I think the mix is what makes it seem like they're actually sound effects as in they sound like effects dropped in instead of sounding natural.  They were full though, didn't sound all tinny and downloaded like a lot of SFX we drop into our videos sometimes.

Neil:
Funny, I like that.  Great short.  Parenthood "from porn to milo and otis"

A buddy of mine is a sound designer (engineer? dunno the terminology) and he has been collecting his own little database of sounds for his job. So these are all from libraries of sfx. I kind of wanted them to sound a bit pasted on top of what we're seeing, which may sound like a bullshit answer to cover the fact that I don't really know what I'm doing (which I don't). But, I wanted that elevated, almost cartoonish feel to it, so it's mostly intentional. Luckily I think it works with the material. In the future, I don't think I could away with it, so it's good for you to point that out now.

Thanks for watching guys.

Gamblour.:
I'll just dedicate this thread to skits we're making.

Here's our latest. It's going to be featured at Dragon*Con this year. And by featured, I mean when you go to wait in line for three hours to see William Shatner, you can watch this film on TV screens ad nauseum!

It's a skit about Dungeons and Dragons.
