Actually this was after the film let out, the theater director and I had some fun in the lobby:

I threw this together at 1am so it's a little rough around the edges 8)

Priceless. How did you do the effects?

I do my editing in Adobe Premiere, but the muzzle flash and falling debris are just free video clips off the internet. I ripped the sounds off a YouTube clip and then just threw it all together.

In retrospect I wish I'd added an Alien scream at the end. Maybe there will be a Director's Cut!

Pretty cool :)

I've got a crap load of PR sounds that I used on my vid ( viewtopic.php?f=5&t=11213 ) I can try and find em again for you if you want them??

Simon: I could always use more PR sounds! Your video clips are pretty great. I've only used After Effects a little bit, but I'm impressed by what I've seen.

Cheers bud!
AE only requires patience really, if you've got that then you can do most things with it :)

Here's the files I have, they have different amounts of reverb on them so you'll have to find the best one for your vid and cut it up. I think I used 11 & 12 for mine.

Wow, it is the falling debris that really sells it. I have noticed that even a blank round will knock material off ceiling tiles, but I would have never thought to add it as an affect.
FYI: snipers will put a towel down under the muzzle to prevent a dust cloud from identifying their position.
