Hi!

That's of course a valid argument, but if the criticism targets mainly the things which are the way they are because of budget restraints, it loses its weight... at least in this case.

Good actors and postproduction aren't usually available for nothing - or maybe only if you're really lucky.

The comment about the cutting/pacing is in my eyes the only relevant criticism, because it doesn't have anything to do with the reason the funding request was made in the first place.

To pick up the most obvious flaw, it's not easy finding good actors without any budget, because the talented people usually don't work for free, hence the crowdfunding. DUH.

No need to get offending. To pick up the most obvious flaw, crowd funding is not about random people giving random money to random other people. It's about people giving money to other people that have something very promising to show or who are known for being extremely talented. Sharing a link is not about sharing the link, its about sharing an idea, something people can recommend. Only very few people will share a link when the plot doesn't get them. It's like saying "I don't like it but you should really watch it because.... ummm... you should watch it."

It's the old thing: If you cannot stand criticism then don't post your work.


Always learn from history, to be sure you make the same mistakes again...

Sorry, für meine ehrlichen Worte - aber wie gesagt, ich stehe zu Leuten, die kreativ sind, das mag ich.
1.
Alter, das letzte mal, als ich Dich einmal und nie wieder persönlich auf der DUS sah (10 Jahre her??), da warst Du echt noch nicht so fett. Das wirkt nicht gut.
2.
Ansonsten kauf Dir bitte After Effects und pimpe die Scheiße auf.
3.
Im gegenwärtigen Zustand ist das alleroberster übertriebener End-Indi-Scheiß.


edit... die Kritik ist vielleicht ein Schlüssel für Deinen nächsten Versuch, für solch einen Schund von unschuldigen Menschen Kohle abzocken zu wollen

Its a misnomer that you can't get people who can act with no funding, or that you can't get good camera work, etc. For example, as I pointed out in my previous post here, they did a decent job with sound ... and that's not easy (and something that many indi-films fail at). But if the OP wants to raise funds for a project, then the project needs to be presented in an interesting way. It needs to grab the attention of the people that may want to invest. They have to be made to believe in the project, that it is worthy of them giving their cash. The critiques in this thread are on topic in that they let the OP know that there are issues that may cause them to not be able to raise the funds they are looking for in order to accomplish their goals. This would mean, to me, if it were my project, that I might want to look at how I am presenting things so that I could make some changes and have a better chance at accomplishing my goal.

Case in point: it has been three days or so and the project is still 0% funded.
