Sorry for the large break between updates. Some pretty major changes in my life have distracted my attention away from the project for a couple months, but now I feel like I’m making progress again. I recently had some breakthroughs in how to treat a few of the fx shots so I’m moving forward with those concepts. They may still be kind of rinky dink, but not as thin as before. That’s for sure.
Another cause for the delay is that I’m teaching myself Nuke, which I may have mentioned before. It’s going well, but there’s still stuff that I can do faster in Shake or AE, so it’s a little challenging to stick with it when I’m anxious to get shots in the can. Also, both Shake and AE come with Keylight, but Nuke doesn’t. Their built-in two-stage keyer works well, but I like Keylight. And the Nuke people make Keylight! Why did they leave it out?!
Regardless, I’m still aiming for a late January screening provided everything works out with the folks at the Hollywood. But now that I think about it, I may have a cast/crew screening at the Clinton street since we had such a great experience there with Decrypter. Movie first, drinks at Dots after? That worked out great last time. I’ll check in with Seth and see if he’s down.
Hit me up on the comments if you have any questions.
