Coming Soon, to a Screen Near You...

Greetings, one and all! This week finds us racing toward the release of our short, which takes place in the Stormborn universe. But first, a recap.
Wednesday night saw our first shoot, in a stand of trees well after dark. For a little over three hours on location, we managed to turn out about four minutes of screen time. The chill wind picking up 2/3 of the way through was an excellent incentive to move quickly...

Friday saw a mad rearrangement of schedules, followed by two shorter shoots, framing the primary narrative. The wind picked up during the first, making sound challenging to capture, and the rain started to fall during the second, leading to a mad juggling of umbrellas, and so no pictures.

Those two hours netted another two plus minutes of screen time. All in all, a very productive shoot session. On Saturday, we dove into a rapid edit session, as well as full sound sync.

Sunday saw the team meeting for the final storming exercise: Medieval style.

By the end, they were getting a good idea of how to go about the process, and then we released them for Christmas break.

Monday came around, and with it the slow process of color correction, and the limited number of effects that are needed to tell the story. As Tuesday is supposed to host a bit of a wind storm, we have no idea if we'll have power, and so this blog is being written early. Thus, the update will end here.

But, before that happens, I will say that this short is being released within the week, before Christmas! So, keep your eyes out for that, and have a great week!

Merry Christmas to all!
