“Jesus Christ, Alison, he doesn’t look remotely Swedish!”

FIRST RESHOOT required. A little out of focus action means a quick reshoot. Should only take an hour or two, only one main character involved. If you have to do a reshoot, this is the type you want.

EDITING

Editing is getting tough. No end to the chaos. No end to the footage. I have SO MUCH writing I need to do, and it’s impossible with all of this editing to get done.

This is the most editing I’ve ever had to do on a film. This is the “roughest” audio, the “roughest” picture, the “roughest” everything. This just means the film has a long way to go. I’ll get it there, for sure, but it’s going to take a LOT of time and work.

I may have to take a break from the edit and run away for a week or so to write. This writing needs to be done!

TIGERS

No word on anything on the tigers front as far as distribution, etc…but we’re hopeful something will come through soon.

IT’S OUR LAST SCHEDULED DAY OF SHOOTING ON “VAMLET”

Whew. It’s been a long time since we hopped into Katie’s car and shot that first day. We’ve seen Dan, we’ve been to TIFF, CIFF, VIFF, and I’ve been sitting in front of this screen editing as much as possible. I’ve made it through 27 minutes up to this point. Normally I would have cut the film as we shot, but with two cameras that just wasn’t possible. Syncing and plowing through all that footage each night after shooting wasn’t possible.

THE NEW. THE NEXT.

There’s something happening, it’s going to be a lot of work and it’s going to take a lot of “attention,” but it could be a big deal after a while. We’re still working out the logistics, but it’s probably the biggest thing you could attempt in the world of entertainment with no money and a dream. It will start “smallish” and grow. More news very soon.

TIJANA POPOVIC is TINA

“Pet your power animal.”

It was great to see Tijana again. She is one of the very best!

Things got pretty crazy with all of that healing. Everybody was really great yesterday. It was a pretty light scriptment day, and everybody contributed a little something extra.

I’m mixing Dying Tigers, and my shoulder and back are very grateful for the rest. Shooting an entire film handheld, with a great deal of improvisation seemed like a great idea, but it’s been a bit tougher than I thought. The HVX weighs more than the DVX, and it’s been a few years.

Sill, I can’t wait to get back to work with this cast in a few days!
