One Foot From Hell will soon be upon us.
I say soon but there’s still a bit to do. Well a lot to be honest. In terms of structure the edit is now locked. In terms of grade, just needs a slight brightness/contrast tweak when I’ve swapped all the footage for the high quality alternative (it’s a complicated task when your PC doesn’t want to help with editing).
Also I do need to try to tweak the animation but due to said unhelpful PC it’s not longer rendering out the animation so for now I‘m forced to be happy with what I have.
So where do we stand?
In short, sound. In more depth, I’m mixing the dialogue, then will start to get Axel Foley and get that all mixed in. Whilst this is going on I’ll be on the hunt for composers to score the film.
Then there’s just a few final flourishes to complete the film, such as credits. Well, mainly credits.
If I get on top of it all I it should be ready for a Halloween release and then ready for festivals the of 2014.
This I think is the most taxing part and I need to stay positive through. I'm a creative at heart, and mixing the sound, at least at this stage, is more a job that needs doing more than anything else. Foley will be a bit more interesting, but until then I need to make sure I get mixing and I keep motivated.
But in other news, you may have seen a few extra buttons appear at the top of this page. Due to lack of organisation and webskills I’m basically turning this ‘ere blog into a main site where you can access information about my work. For the time being, my showreel , and behind the scenes info for One Foot.
Ok, so there's nothing in the behind the scenes yet, but there will be.
I hope to continue to fill it with more and more information to give a more rounded study on the making of the short.
I can then start directing people here to find out about me and the film.
But for now I’d better get back to sound editing.
Oh by the way, we now have a poster that I need to post up here when we're closer to finished.
