Short Film Review: Broken - Page 3

Also, upon exploring the website, www.whatisbroken.com, I found something very interesting. A series of short behind the scenes type video clips. These were really interesting to watch, they are very brief, but worth the time spent. They include a look at the composite shots, what the raw footage looked like and the transformation it undergoes for the final product, as well as storyboard comparisons, and a look at the creation of a fake tattoo. These added a nice touch to the site and are good to check out after watching the film.

Bottomline. If you like action, check this out. An intriguing setup with convincing acting, and convincing effects to create the firefight. You won't be disappointed when watching this, but perhaps you will when it is all over, when you realize that you want more when it is all done! And if anyone knows what song that is that is used over the end credits and on the web docs, let me know!

Recommended.

Be sure to visit www.whatisbroken.com for more information. In addition to the the brief docs, there is also a trailer, behind the scenes stills, film stills, wallpapers, and more.
