DVD Screener

I put together what I have edited onto a DVD for a screening over the weekend. There are some scenes with temporary music, there are unfinished scenes, and there are definately scenes that need some audio touch ups (considering we use one mic, and it is a shotgun on the top of the camera) but overall it gives everybody a pretty good idea of how the movie is turning out.

Egan, Koziol, Tommy and Lianne have all taken a look and it got all positive feedback. I am pretty excited seeing it all FINALLY coming together. It has been a long time coming and thankfully its on the cusp.

In October of 2005, we goofed around for one of the weekend competitions and came up with "The Force"

Fast forward to the Summer of 2006 and we all felt we needed to take things up a notch, and finally work on something serious. Not just a three minute sketch or anything using a camcorder. We wanted to actually have a script and do it like a "real" movie.

Fleshed out ideas, and we had a script we were happy with in July. We took our time getting going, needed a warehouse for our grand finale (which on this date two years later we STILL don't have), and we needed to plan on when to get started.

Early October we finally got going and were literally breezing through scenes. Had a ton edited, got a rough teaser done for Xmas and we were REALLY confident that if things kept going at that pace, and our location came through, a Spring 07 release was beyond doable.

Here we are again in the present, and now it is about damn time it's coming together. I couldn't be more excited to be honest.

I am actually putting together little promo packs FINALLY for select people to get a little screener with two or three scenes and shit like that. Mini posters, promo pictures. As a matter of fact, I was supposed to send one to Sara, the poster designer months ago but shit has been crazy. Considering I assume she doesn't read this, it will be a big surprise when it finally shows up at her place.

Either way, I felt it was necessary to update people so as to keep this blog going. Especially since it will be more of a ghost town once it is out for everyone to see.

I will be back with more this weekend as Saturday we are knocking off yet ANOTHER big scene in the movie. Thank god!

After that we have two things that can be done in a day, and a big old school fist fight scene and THATS IT!!! WHOOOOO!!!!

To celebrate, we are going to go on a nice road trip
