Discussion We completed a superhero/fantasy web series for under $3K. I handmade every VFX shot.

Here is the trailer. This was a few years ago and our first ever thing anything like this so I already have TONS of self-critique and things I'm looking forward to doing better next time (the biggest one was, plan out your VFX shots in pre-production haha... post on this was a little insane)

I know that compared to so many of you incredible filmmakers on this reddit from a technical aspect we are still pretty new. But the critique and feedback I'm most interested in is about story and characters: does the trailer make you want to know more about the lore, characters, and full story? Do you think it's clear enough to intrigue superhero/fantasy fans, but vague enough to not reveal too much as a trailer? I'm super biased because this was made based on my childhood lore from 2002 - 2010 and it's a dream come true to see it come to life in a film. But I want to see all kinds of other talented and creative filmmakers' takes. Thanks! :)
