I think the added flares should 'point' the same way as the other. Turn them 180 degrees :)

Really Cool!

Nitpicking: In the credits, "Co- Executive Producer" before Peter Chernin is a little small...

I still love the back! How would the caution line look yellow?

Really cool cover wes! The only thing I'm not sure on is the ambulance on the back. It doesn't have the same blueish color as the other cars, and the shadow is perhaps a bit too strong. Other than that this is another strong contender for CotM :)

I think Z is talking about the police car right next to the tape?

Going to ask a question about the lens flares, and this probably going to educate me, but should they , or not? be coming from the light source, in this the case the helicopter lights?
I'm happy to be instructed, and if they don't have to be coming directly from the lights does that mean they are a bit like a rainbow after rain? IE it's all to do with light, conditions, moisture in the air and stuff like that?

By the way wes, I think this is one of your best ! It really is great mate :thumb:

Well, a lens flair is the result of light or a reflection hitting the camera lens and creating that effect. So, truthfully, it could happen for any light source pointed towards the camera on the back scene. But JR is right that they wouldn't all be facing different directions.

For me, I rarely see that type of flair in film any more. The most common one I see now is the vertical lines... not sure how to explain it... might even be an added effect in post-production.

well explained ford :)

Yes, the lens flares should all point in the same direction (ie. towards the viewer).
