Monitor: short film trailer

Hey Guys,
 
My name is Jared. I'm a 16 year old student filmmaker and Assistant Director/Co-writer on a student-produced short film called Monitor, which finished shooting over the summer. The film has gathered a lot of publicity because of the quality of our work at such a young age, and we would greatly appreciate it if you could check out our recently released trailer, the link to which is below:

The film was shot on two 60Ds over the course of 7 days with a budget of roughly $4,000. We raised all of the money through freelance work, donations, or sponsors. Some of our sponsors included Kessler Crane, Cobra Crane, Red Giant, D|Focus, Beachtek, K-Tek, and Handy SLR. We're trying to get a huge response from this trailer and would greatly appreciate any help!

That's some pretty gorgeous stuff.

How did you do the rain?

The rain shots were easily some of the most difficult to set up in the entire film. We had one big ass light across the street connected to a neighbor's house for the main light; the only other light was from the headlights of the car. We simulated the rain with water hoses on either side of the street that we sort of bounced off a tree overhead to make the rain more even. We also had an umbrella over the camera to prevent it from getting wet. Of course, all this will be explained on the BTS we plan to include in the dvd release.
