UPDATE:

Well, We have been silent for a while recovering from what was a very long and hard time for us. We decided after a lengthy discussion, There was simply no way to accomplish the massive renders we needed to do for Sleeper in the amount of time we had.

We spent so much time focusing on trying to get the renders to work we neglected color correction, other effects, cut away shots....and basically a whole ton more!

Regardless, Mark and I decided that you all have been a part of Sleeper from day one so we felt we needed to post our in progress version of the movie for the competition, and include you in this step as well.

Here is what still needs to be finished:

1. Color Correction

2. All Effects Re rendered extremely high end, and perfectly masked as well.

3. Creature created to replace the place holder paint drawing at end.

4. Rain added to all rain scenes.

5. Rain animated to move off of the bodies of the people and objects inserted into scene.

6. Rain slowed for final effect.

7. All green screens keyed and replaced with environments.

8. 3D Table in vault built with rotating microchip holder, and fold out compartments holding the cash.

9. Cash put in the suitcase.

10. Vault scene finished.

11. Computer screens replaced with high tech stuff. Sound effects added.

12. Transition effect betwen vault close of suitcase and garage close of suitcase.

13. Foreground added to garage (steam from pipes, water droplets)

14. Scene in stairwell added back in, with effects.

15. Crane pull stabilized.

16. Shane jumping from garage behind Paige in alleyway (Right before she looks back)

17. Rain starting in scene by fence.

18. Cutaways added in scene after fence.

19 Lightning in sky before the push to Paige arriving at the fence.

20. Tracking matting and animating a High End Weapon Model. with SFX.

21. Refining throw with high end model.

22. Add weapon cuting through rain Slow Mo.

23. Have sword cut the weapon in half as a piece of it flies over Shane's shoulder leaving trails of smoke and fire.

24. Sync Audio and Music to correct cues.

25. Create shockwave that is shown now by a placeholder.

26. Create credits that compliment the actors crew and the movie itself.

27. bring more highness to girls voice.

28. All lightning and other cutaways completed.

29. Light in tattoo animated.

30. Screen animated to shake with tattoo energy.

31. Rope removed from scenes.

32. Wall added to make the other side of the alleyway.

33. Glowing eyes for person's transition to monster.

34. Ghosting effect for person's tranformation (transparent skin type thingy)

35. Removal of mattress and boots from scene.

36. Adding back the apartment pull out reveal to elevator agt start of film.

37. FINAL CC PASS

38. FINAL AUDIO PASS


These are the things we were trying to get done. I hope you enjoy our work in progress version of Sleeper. The High End version will be shown later when it has been completed.

Watch this rough effects first pass after the movies start showing and let us know what you think?

WOO FRIGGIN HOO!

IT’S OFFICIAL! OSCAR, EMMY, AURORA (and many more) WINNING composer, Chance
Thomas, signs on as composer for SLEEPER.

A little background…
I had the extreme pleasure of working with Chance at Sierra On-Line on such
games as SWAT2, Quest for Glory V – Dragonfire and then several years later,
Chance and I worked together again at VIVENDI UNIVERSAL GAMES where he served as
the Tolkien Franchise Music Director and I served as the Tolkien Franchise Art
Director.

Chance composed the music for the short animated film Attack of the Chubb
Chubb’s (Sony Pictures) which opened for Men in Black 2 in the theatres, won
several festivals and eventually took the OSCAR for best animated short at the
75th Annual Academy Awards.

Chance has since worked on games such as Peter Jackson’s KING KONG and many
others. For more information on Chance please feel free to visit his site and
sample some of his incredible music at

It is our extreme pleasure to work with Chance we are certain that this new addition to our team will take this project to whole new
level.

Welcome aboard Chance,

Matt and Mark

Yep, we are going at it from a new angle... SLEEPER, the story of a very tired spy!

Thank you all for the comments. Mark and I are working hard at the moment setting up shooting dates and fleshing out the awesome story that is "Sleeper". This is the biggest thing I have ever attempted and I cannot wait to be able to show you. Keep checking back as we will be updating and replying frequently.
