my friends and i are asprining actors and filmmakers. we made this film in 3 days at an abandoned school, its a comedic version of the tragedy of romeo and juliet. we made it our last semester of our freshman year in high school.
 
I stopped after about 3 minutes in. It wasn't very cohesive. It just seemed to be random clips of you and your friends goofing around. Your actors were not good enough at impressions to make their roles funny. Even if they were I still don't think it'd be funny. Also next time try to come up with a little more original subject matter. Parodies of Shakespeare, especially Romeo and Juliet, have been done a billion jillion times. If you're going to attempt something like that the parody needs to be very very original and creative in order to hold anyone's interest.

Good luck in the future though. Being a freshman, you have a leg up on people like me(senior) who decides they wanted to do film just this summer.
