Jan 1st - The final status check thread

Well I've been saving up for the operation, but there's no way I'll be healed in time for the next DVXFest. Even the best doctor in Venezuala can only do so much....

Um, I vote for the girl on the right, second photo down.

And just what ARE you staring at in that 3rd pic ... her empty beer glass ("Geez, she finished that ALREADY?!) or ....

Correction ... you like like you're about to pass out, not really looking at anything at all. Great wrap party!
I totally agree. That chick in the black looks like she'd be smokin. Good job Dahopa.

LOL. I deliver to you in photographs what I fear I am too unskilled to deliver to you by way of a Sci-Fest entry!

But it sure is fun making these things ...:laugh:

Again - THANKS JARRED!

Yep, married 13 years this May, but I can still look ... at least when my wife's not around. Made the mistake once of allowing my head to turn when I was WITH her at the store ... BIG mistake. :grin: I don't think it's happened since.

Dahopa, you can deliver ... I remember FIST FULL OF FLESH. That SO sounds like a porn title.

Thanks for the kind words - Fistful was supposed to be a gentle, amusing little piece - and we almost succeeded. But at least you got the intention of the title - thanks! (I actually recently re-edited it and it's much better now.)

And if you remember Fistful, perhaps the young lady third from the left in the top photo and in the last wrap party photo (above) looks familiar?

But I digress ...

And thanks for the interest guys - but perhaps we should now abandon my lurid wrap party photos (posted primarily to properly respond to Jarred's cracks about these fine ladies being "young blonde boys") and resume the thread topic.

And - oh yeah - ol' Jarred's been a little quiet since the pics were posted, hasn't he?:laugh:

Cheers and thanks.

(perhaps someone should start a "Warp Party Photos" thread. I've got a lot more photos from our party - which I can send to you in a plain brown wrapper for a mere $3.50 ...)
 
I actually would love to see a "wrap party photos" thread. I doubt it could go on w/o it getting out of hand though. I'm sure some posts would border on promotion as the more spectacular the photo, the more buzz created around the project.

I wonder what Jarred or Barry would think.
 
Well, we finally finished the flipping fine cut. Had to hack out about a minute to get it in under the time limit... but it's done. I'm sure others are experiencing this, but... it's funny how quickly the credits get cut down when you're working on a time constraint.

Now to finish sound...

Good luck everyone.
 
Status: looking for a new hobby, 'cause this filmmaking stuff is definitely not my forté.

At least not editing. :grin:
 
Doing my own ADR right now. SO sick of hearing my own voice. Think I'll go drink a bottle of draino, followed by a Clorox coctail ... certainly can't hear the way I #$%#@ sound.
 
Don't do it Norm!!! Well... status report is good. Score should be finished this week, and effects as well. Then I will have to chop down the film (it's 11 min. right now) to meet the requirements. Things are good, just a lot of waiting for other people(music,SFX) now.
 
Nah, I'm all talk. 'Sides, once I got the bottle to my lips, the smell about choked me. Kidding, really, I don't need intervention. :)

Just had one talent come & go after taking about an hour to do 2-3 SIMPLE short lines of dialogue. It is TOUGH picking out which exact take you like best ... unless you're going to comp pieces together ... especially when they all sound so similar with the exception of one TINY bit of inflection here or there.

Other talent should be here any minute for his ADR. Then, I'm still not fully satisfied with mine, and need to do it again.

Tell you what, I'm getting nervous. Anytime I read about one of you guys saying you're pleased with your results, love what you see so far, can't believe how well it looks, etc.
 
Things are good. Waiting till the last minute of course- with the bulk of shooting left for next weekend.

It's funny you given three months to do something and I always wait till the last minute. Working under the pressure may be good.

I can't wait. Everyone is pretty excited- and there is room for a lot of improv for the actors. Should be cool.

Good luck to everyone else.
 
You can tell SOMEONE had experience in journalism ... got the knack there for taking quotes out of context, do ya' Jack? :beer:

Funny, though!
 
good to see everyone is coming along .
Well the rained stopped for a day then continued again this morning BUT it started to snow ..yeeehaw ...we setup tonight to finish some extra scenes and the temperature just dropped ...crap man it was COLD ..we packed it in without one frame shot ...As I'm writting this my feet are still cold ..
we are not giving in yet ..our solution is going to film the scenes separate through out this week, then hope they match later . and the deadline is getting closer.

About two weeks left. Still finishing up three VFX shots (only one is needed for the fest version though). Our composer is coming over with a finished score for us to tweak, and then hopefully lock by the end of the week. Still working on sound mix (My least favorite part).

That's why they made cut-n-paste. :)

Cut on a dental, and no one will notice.
