After multiple times having to go back and edit little things, it is finally finished. I am now addicted to making movies. I love it.

Parking Spaces - the most-accurate movie about Liberty University. Ever.

I'm not claiming the acting is perfect but hey, it's a funny seven minutes.

In my opinion, the girl that plays Jessica does it absolutely perfect. The guy that plays the main character is just sarcastic enough to do a good job.

[Edit: I pressed submit on this before the video was finished uploading on YouTube. I'm an idiot. It also takes a few minutes for it to get validated so it may take a few minutes before it it viewable, but it's there]

I'm working on something now, but it's not a comedy. It's a movie I've wanted to make for a while.

SJ--you need to get the lingo right. It's a FILM.

No too shabby, SJ. I don't think you need to clear room on the mantle for any Oscars quite yet. But not a bad effort.

But I have to argue that it can be the most dead-on portrayal of LU without a scene of students on FlameFans during a class.

So I rushed the past two days to get this thing finished and I get an e-mail tonight from my professor saying they're not due until Monday because of "multiple reasons." Oh well, that just means I don't go to class the next two days.

As a product of the "Christian Education Machine" I must say that is sooo accurate. However, I am bummed you sort of figured out my pick up lines. I too went with the "opposite" approach. You had to find out if the girl was a "holy roller" type, then you played the bad boy to let their nurturing instincts take over. If they were "lost but searching" you play the "pastoral major" card so you appear strong and confident. It was GOLD JERRY GOLD@

It was funny but I still think the one that Huuricanefan OR ROCKETFAN I forget everyones "secret" identities did about the "day in the life...." was a classic. Wonder if he still has that

I just made an insanely low quality version of the bloopers. I don't have the high quality version of the raw footage to make it (it's on a the other guy's computer). Once I get it I'm going to make the bloopers out of it.

good- "the streetside" conversation was hard to pick up in some parts due to other audio/traffic noise, but overall nice job lad.

I liked the guy "straightening out" his zip up sweatshirt and hat. Nice touch

I agree with the esteemed gentleman from PA. Some of the conversation was difficult to pick up, and a better microphone would help. I've done a lot of video editing in the past, so I appreciate the hard work you put in. What program did you use?

Also, as a professor at LU, I do not interact socially much with the students. How true are the scenarios? Do some of the females actually use the "dating Jesus" and "called to be single" lines??

evidently many do, at least now.

Maybe I hung around the wrong types of girls back in the day- I never personally heard those lines.

We never ever heard lines like that at JMU.

Neurotic girls exist on every campus. They just adapt their lines to campus culture.

As for the audio, You guys ought to spring for a mini-lav if you want to do this on a regular basis. They can be picked up fairly inexpensively these days and would make a BIG difference in the quality of the production.

I know about the audio, but as a 223 student, we aren't allowed to check out a lot of the good stuff. That was the problem with that.

As for the excuses, I've personally heard all four. I've gotten the called to be single line, a friend has actually gotten the missionary line before, and I've had friends get the others. We basically agree that they're not dating Jesus, they just don't like us.
