Well, I’ve really only been able to edit one to two nights a week, but the rough cut of the film is now at 40 minutes. Kinda surprised me considering I’m only at scene 21 (out of a little over 50). Originally I thought the entire movie would be about 40 minutes long. But I’m finding it’ll be more like an hour and a half to two hours long. And we did all of the principal shooting in about a week (!!!).
I’m challenging myself by trying to edit the film without a temp track–that is, without any music initially beneath it, but to find the rhythm through the visuals alone–and it’s really really challenging to do. In fact, I’m giving up on that and starting to use a temp track.
I’m happy with some of it. I’m unhappy with the rest.
I’ll probably have other short films completed before this one is. Could be over a year. Could be longer.
Um, that’s all I have to say about my life right now. The rest is pretty depressing.
