Thanks guys.

Well, 2 shooting days has quickly turned into 3, as we will be going back tomorrow to finish up.

It's rather remarkable how much can not get done when 5 teenage guys get together and try to focus on something... lol

LOL! Good luck tomorrow- hope the weather cooperates with you!
 
Finished shooting today. We were really lucky with the weather, right before we started shooting the clouds rolled in for a nice overcast, which matched the last 2 days.

Due to time and location availability I had to do some last minute script wrangling to make everything work, but I think it'll come together well.

I'm uploading now and will post some more grabs.
 
Congrats man! GOod work going out and getting something done! Grabs look good! Looking forward to the film!

Thanks guys. It's nice to have everything shot, now I gotta get the edit done, hopefully pretty soon.
 
Well, I was lucky enough to have finals at school this week. Then I worked today, so now it's kind of a mad dash for some last minute sound cutting and squeeze in some songs as a makeshift score.

So I'll definitely be doing a director's cut on this one. :)
 
I can see the light at the end of the tunnel!

I'm exporting my final movie right now, then to upload.

There were a few things missing, like ADR and most of the color correction for continuity, but I think it's pretty good.
 
Thanks Justin.

I just finished uploading, so I'm pretty excited! And relieved. And tired...
 
ya... this is the suck ass part of the competition. Getting the film exported and uploaded at the very very last minute. :)

get some sleep and get the popcorn ready for Friday's screening!

Friday! do you mean tomorrow, Friday? Weewoo! boy am I waiting to sink my chair. I have the speaker all ready to roll sound.

At what time on Friday we will start viewing people's work? I am taking the day off. :)

By the way I like the title of the movie "Black Ice" I wonder what it means and in what content was it used.

The grab of the truck is pretty sweet looking.
 
Yeah it seems like it's always the last minute exporting that gives people the most trouble. I had to do like 10 tests to get my settings, and still didn't get it as good as I'd like it.

Thanks Roman, I really like that shot, too. As for the context of the title, you'll have to watch it! :)
