Greetings, one and all! Well... for my part, the first half of the week was troubleshooting tech issues for the people who are looking into the music question. In short, can we make any ourselves, or no? While none of us have the complete background to do the job, several of us have pieces. Thus we find ourselves meshing two very different generations of tech, though maybe “mashing together” is a more apt term. Granted, we don't know if this is possible, but as our music budget has shrunk due to the rest of life interfering, it's worth the time investment to at least find out. After all, the movie has been done for months, and it can't wait forever.
The second half of the week was finally making a breakthrough in the challenging fulcrum point of the script. Though, given how this is a story of plots and schemes, getting the timing of everything right is a bit of a challenge. Thus, progress is slow, but consistent, and we're now about a quarter of the way through the first draft.
Lastly, the stunt team met again, and this time ran an old
exercise, with some new skills. In short, each pairing choreographs a section
of the fight, with each member of the pairing playing the same characters as
their partner in the other group. In this case, one pair choreographed the start of
the fight, and the other choreographed the end. They agreed on weapons,
narrative, and the ending move of the first pairing that would be the starting
point of the second.
The end result, a highly energetic fight that runs for twice as long, while only taking half the time to create. All in all, a fairly successful exercise.
Well, that's about all for this week. Until next time!
