Uploaded? - Post here if you still need to upload

You the man. Thanks. I'm doing the .mov first, but the m2v is a slow go for upload.

EDIT: I had to throw in some random keyboard for our score since the magic music maker is an overworked ER doc. I'm not sure how it will sound, but it seems better with something.
 
I just got a really bad work flow

These 15 second scenes are taking an hour to flatten so I can drop em in the 16X9 timeline with all the motion manipulation in tact.

Only 1 minute to output and bring back after render though.

But it'll be tonight ... so nothing is, or will be held up guys. :)

I only have two more to work flows like that and then double check my audio
(not gonna get it perfect just make sure all the clips are copied) and then render and upload.

at this poing its basically do you want to see a flick where the aspect ratio randomly changes and sometimes there's a clip with CC missing tomorrow

or

do you want to see a flick where its normal looking tomorrow

I don't think I could get it stuck together any quicker the broken way anyhow.

EDIT: Didn't see that Jarred was thinking of putting them up tonight. Not likely on my end. Sorry. I would have just put up crap if I knew that. But like I said its all apart now and not easy to put back together.
 
Well some people uploaded what they had because thats whats supposed to happen when theres a deadline. How do you think the guy feels that uploaded 30 seconds of score because he was trying to make the deadline? Thats not right...
 
Jack needs to invest in a faster computer :)

im fine with it.. im sitting back watching these things 1 by 1 and so far im pretty impressed. Good work guys!
 
i have a 2 night score and chopped some stuff Justin said I could use just to get it in. Theres always the DVD to make it right. We are missing scenes we wish we could get in there and we are just going to shoot them for the DVD.
 
Jarred, I just f-ked up while rushing. There will be two .mov files.... the correct one is snodart-justin-cache2. I'm exporting the m2v now from FCP and will upload that with audio file as soon as .mov is done uploading.

Jack, we already know your stuff rocks.

EDIT: .mov is uploaded! DVD files are on the way.
 
it's not that --

i'm not tweaking the hell out of it or anything

its just all apart on different timelines and diferent work flows -- its just gonna take what it takes to put it back together, and i'm not uploading last weeks rough cut with music from the composer and stuff I through in from apple loops and VFX from one guy that tried out for the job but didn't get mixed in with drafts from the guy who did get the job.

I'm saying I didn't want to enter it under a negative cloud, which is where it seemed this thread was going.

BTW other people have and are now updating there score, recompressing etc...

I have all the pieces of my film finished - score - Vfx, sound, I'm just tryting to get it rendered on the same time line to get them uploaded, after I spent a week coordinating everything for other people and (DISCLAIMER: yes yes yes) then wed - friday compositing (that's where I could have cut corners, but I didn't know it would back up on the end like this - I am prettty much a one man band and not a professional so figuring out the workflow with other people envolved in post is a new learning exp.)

I didn't think it would be a big deal since we weren't supposed to start until tomorrow

I spent the time I did compositing and trying to uprezz etc. Because I wanted to share the best film I could make with you guys and really thought we would have through Sunday - just as Norm did, and just as Aram thought we would have through Saturday to finish it up based on what a "soft deadline" has meant in the past.

I'll finish it and enter it because Jarred is fine with it.

But I'm kind of on a set track and it would be dumb now, after all of this, to upload an old rough cut or something which wouldn't show the composer or audio sweetener or VFX artists work at all.

yes you guys have at least a week to get your DVD mpg uploaded.

Nice. So whats the gig on longer versions. Mine would only add around 1:30 I think... And it is okay to make corrections and such for the DVD version?
 
At least I can tweak some for the DVD.
So whats the verdict? Im way past my bedtime and Im only staying up to see if we are ready like freddy.
