First of all: the 60seconds film were i am talking about is the film were i needed the lighting setup for. So i think there are a lot of people who already know i was busy working on a 1-minute film. I will show it here because some users has really helped me, and it cost them time. It always bother me when someone ask a big quistion, and after the answer, he dont return to tell how it went.
But iam very much aware the movie is not on studentfilms.com, the reason is i want to show it, and maybe getting feedback before i enter this to a 1-minute filmfestival (end of this week on the mail) so there is just no time to get the film on studentfilms in such a small time. The second reason is that i believe a 1-minute film is a bit to short for studentfilms.com (or am i wrong?)
It was very hard to make this a 1-minute film (not a second more or less!) hope people enjoy it.
I have subtiteld the important dialog. (the other dialog is just talking about the wargame, so dont get confused or thinking you dont get it, its NOT important what the are saying until you see some subtitels)
Again, thanks to everyone who has helped me!!
NOTE: rightmouse - save, do not open it directly unless you have a very fast internet connection. Its not compress for the web. Total filesize is around 7,5MB, wich is much for a 60 seconds film.
Hey- First of all, I really liked it. I laughed out loud when you reach the punchline (don't want to spoil it for the rest of us). Good Job. A few things about the subtitles- If the subtitles are just for Studentfilms.com, then disregard all I'm saying. But if you're trying to show it to American audiences, I'd subtitle everything, not just the important parts. Just nice to know that we're not missing anything, you know? As for specific changes to the subtitles: It should be "Don't bother me!" not "Don't Bother Me!" It should be "No, I don't hear it." not "No, i dont hear it"
Again, if the subtitles are just to get a few people's opinion, forget what I've said, but you probably want the subtitles to be as clear as possible for an American film festival. Good luck!
Actors? What actors?

I will change the subtitels. I dont think i will subtitel everything, because the are talking so fast and its really not important because there are just some boys talking (about the game, so there are talking about militairy stuff) But i understand that its frustrating to not knowing were the are talking about! I always have that with chinese

Yea it should be "Teddy" or "Teddy Bear". The "Teddy Duck" through me off a bit.
I also think its better without subtitling what the boys are saying. It isn't important to the story and I actually think it might be distracting because they are saying so much, so fast.
All you really need to know is what he has subtitled. But yea its "I don't hear anything", not "I am not hearing anything".
Great job on the film though. It looks great and it definately made me chuckle.
