I AM SO EXCITED! After spending 15 weeks on this video, over 17 hours filming (including re-shooting scenes), 20 hours editing, and not to mention all the stress/panic attacks/people flaking out last minute, and the honor really goes to those in the video. I could NOT have done this without literally every single person listed in the credits. I feel great about this piece, enjoy everyone!! :)

Editing is Nearing Completion, Just In Time!

I reshot some scenes this past Sunday and am VERY happy with the results!! I'm just finishing up the editing process and am excited to show this next week. Here are a few stills to go in addition to the others I've posted previously. WOO!

See you next Wednesday! ;D

The End is Near!

Hello all! I'm almost done with editing. This weekend, I am going out to just re-shoot a scene or two and collect just a little more footage. I know exactly what scenes I need, and I couldn't be happier being so close to completion of this video! I wish I had more to post, but I've just been editing with the footage I took two weeks ago still, and Lord knows how much footage I got. Haha, but the end is near! :)
WAHOO!!

FINALLY GOT TO FILM!!

Ah! Finally filmed on this past Sunday, and by filmed, I mean for nine hours straight. I've already put about 80% of the video together, but its still far from done. I want to re-shoot a few simple shots again which is no big deal, color correct where needed, see if there are any filters that I could use to my advantage, etc. It feels FANTASTIC to have almost all of the filming completely done, seeing as this whole process has been beyond stressful, but here are some screen shots of some of the scenes we filmed! :)

 

Filming this Sunday...Hopefully!

The weather forcast is showing scattered showers for this Sunday, but I'm hoping to still make the most of it. The weather has been changing almost as fast as every few hours, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed and hoping I can finally get this filming over with!! Cheers to the waiting game, again. *sigh*

Progress, with a Chance of Rain

Alright! So I was able to film the first scene of my video over spring break, and I originally scheduled to film the rest on this past Sunday (seeing as that was the best time for all of my cast and lead), but once Sunday came, the weather forecast changed completely, deciding to be 33 degrees with a chance of snow. Seeing as Brittany, my lead, is supposed to be playing in a creek and her with the 3-4 others are running through the woods outside, it was just WAY too cold to ask them to do that. I have rescheduled the shoot for Sunday, April 10th, and am VERY ready to get this filmed. I have included some screenshots of some of the clips that are in the intro scene, I hope you like them! I had a total of 14 confirmations before the shoot, but only 10 people actually showed up, but 10 worked great after all, in my opinion.
If there is one thing this whole process is just reminding me over and over again- coordinating with people is VERY VERY HARD. Hah, *sigh*.

And the countdown begins...

As of right now, I will be shooting on Sunday, March 27th. I may try and shoot on the 20th as well, but it seems that the 27th works best for all of my models. If I do shoot this Sunday, it would only be the opening scene because its supposed to lightly rain that day and the fog for the fog machines would be denser. (The fog juice for the fog machine vaporizes or atomizes inside the fog machine. Upon exiting the fog machine and coming into contact with the moisture in the outside air the vapor condenses, resulting in a thicker, more visible fog.) Also, I think that rain would be an excellent touch to the beginning- but we'll see. I'm starting to get nervous about filming, but only because I've been anticipating this for so long now. I've also taken your advise and started making a more detailed list for each scene of what specific shots I need to make sure I get. Everything is slowly falling into place, the pressure is onnnn.
