Hi everyone, Joe Tan here, the guy behind Gangsters In Love!

Anyway just released the teaser for my second film, titled "Time To Kill"

Any comments would be great,

I couldn't download the whole thing, my computer/internet screwed it up three times. Anyways, the music is cool, some of the shots so far looked cool. The things I didn't like were the count-down and the font - they distracted from the genre I think you were trying to convey - and looked cartoonish. It's personal style and whatnot. If you want to try out different fonts and what not Try font empire - last time I checked it was free and you can download various fonts. And I didn't dig the actor's names being placed it - probably b/c of the font.

I only got up to 51 secs downloaded, and basically this teaser was more like credits, and so far hasn't told me much about the film. You have dialogue filmed right? if so, probably it would be best to include it in as opposed to listing off character names with actors. Like lines and scenarios quickly placed in such a way to draw the viewer in, most trailers/teasers include a piece of dialogue/action in these precious seconds. I'm sorry if they are included later on after 51 secs, but that's all I received. Also like having characters introduce themselves occurs in some trailers, like in Magnolia or Crank, it works to throwing you into the mind of the char. In those 51 seconds I should have known the gist of a story or had some hook in my mouth, like a fish being reeled in.

Best wishes, I'll try and download it again tomorrow. I'm rooting for you Joe, I know you got the potential to do this.

Hey!
Thanks for the reply

The video was more a teaser in that, it shows off the font style, the visual and musical aspects of the film along with character listings ect. The first minute is a run down of the five main characters, after that its all pretty much action.

The countdown at the start is my mascot, it acompanies all my films - its annoying, which is why I include it (to tourcher the actors haha).

A true trailer will follow once the film is complete showing off dialog, plot details evt. thanks for your support

Cool, I am pumped - like doing cocaine pumped. I know you guys have been working hard on this so keep it up, man.
