I very much enjoyed your movie. The Joy Luck Club meets Charlies Angels! And filmed right in my neighborhood, too.
But ewwwww - a liberal artist!!

I thought it was very well put together, but it just didn't hold my attention too well. I guess it just wasn't my style. I do respect it though. I wish I could put together something half and good. Hell, if I could do something 1/32 as good I would impress myself.
Details! Details!
How long did it take to get it together? How did you get funding? What was the budget?
Did you cut it on a mac? (I presume so
With FCP? And?
What cameras / equipment were used?
You can't just put your pet project up on MR and then clam up!

That was really pretty good when I heard film festival I thought "man this is gonna suck" But I must it admit I laughed out load. Only problem was the the mom had a PC :-(
I'm glad y'all enjoy the short.
"Spy Moms" was shot over 2.5 days, took about 3.5 weeks to cut, and about 1 week for audio post (adding effects, mixing audio levels, cleaning up dialogue, etc.,). It was shot w/a Sony Z1U and down-converted to DV (not FCP 5 at the time) and cut w/FCP 3. The budget (which was largely made up of an endowment the director won) was enough to cover equipment rental (audio package, full lighting package, jib for camera, etc.,) and craft services (food) on the shooting days. The crew were all friends of the director and I think most of the cast had worked w/the director before too.
I was on set shooting some behind-the-scenes stuff for 2 days and it was a really good set. Very efficient and very professional. And I can't say enough of Derek (who was the production audio guy as well as doing the effects and final audio mixing). His audio post work really took the short to the next level.
As for sequel possibilities I wouldn't hold my breath, but I have been badgering the director (who was also the writer) about when he's penning his next short.

So were you just doing edits or did you do any of the graphics as well (computer screen mockups)?
