This is a personal project I've been working on for a while. It looks like it will be between 5 to 10 minutes, but I wanted to see what other people thought. The XX:XX is merely a place holder because I don't know what time's to use quite yet, Actor 1 and 2 are also place holders because I haven't decided on names yet. And I'm not entirely sure whether or not to film the "falling down the stairs" bit in point of view, because it will probably look stupid.Some bits may be hard to understand because of my shorthand,and the H.P. Lovecraft quotes are just for shits and giggles.I'm also thinking about having some subtle way of pointing towards Actor 2 for the appearance of the Cultist Business Card,but I'm shit with dialogue so any help there would be lovely. Any/all constructive criticism appreciated!
