How's it going?

Lorinda Norton · October 11th, 2009, 02:34 AM

Finished shooting about 15 minutes ago. I am soooo cold, and tired, and sore. But we had a blast (literally, there at the end) and everyone did a great job.

Now comes the part I always dread: capturing footage while hoping like heck we got everything. :)

I may jinx my plan by saying anything, but I can't resist. The movie I was working on wasn't going to happen, so I had pretty much given up, as usual. After being up all night, however, inspiration struck, and I've figured out how to rework an idea I had a while back for a short film.

I'm off to shower, shave, get into wardrobe, haul some set dressing around and carry out what amounts to my first twenty-four hour challenge. Don't get your hopes up for a stroke of last-minute genius, but I should be able to turn something in by the deadline. Here's hoping I can stay awake all day.

only now starting editing (8.30pm)... hope I can make it

Chris Barcellos · October 11th, 2009, 12:00 PM

Posted mine last night.

Andris Krastins · October 11th, 2009, 04:30 PM

Submitted just now! Lorinda, please be so kind and confirm if you've received my e-mail. Thanks!

Craig Yates · October 11th, 2009, 06:15 PM

Well, I'm finally done! Still very disappointed with the audio, but I guess time constraints are something we all have to deal with.

Jeremy Doyle · October 11th, 2009, 09:31 PM

Done and uploaded. Now it's time to get to work on the subchallenge.

Mike Horrigan · October 11th, 2009, 10:26 PM

Ended up going with a full short film. I'll post a link here on Halloween though.
It's all shot, just editing now. Also moving this week so I'm pretty busy.

Good luck to those who entered!

Mike

Its uploading now. I'm tired.

Same here! Still have to shoot a few scenes though.

Lorinda Norton · October 12th, 2009, 12:47 AM

Whew! I'd like to have tweaked a little more but wanted to get mine uploaded. Fifteen minutes to spare!

If anyone is having trouble and needs to beg for more time ;) shoot me an email. So far YouTube is really speedy tonight, though, so you should be okay if you upload there.

Andris Krastins · October 12th, 2009, 01:18 AM

I would have loved to tweak it a bit more too, but it's too late for that now. :]
My pc monitors at home are quite bright. Now checking the trailer at work, and in some places it's too dark.
But at least I know it now, before I've begun to edit together the short.

Lorinda Norton · October 12th, 2009, 01:29 AM

I just noticed the same thing on mine, and I know better, yet it seems like they get darker every time. So I just uploaded to Vimeo in hopes that some of the scenes won't be ruined like they are on YouTube.

My editing monitor is calibrated, or so I thought, but it does seem lots brighter than others.

Exactly the same here! I'll re-render it again a bit brighter and upload it to Vimeo, but not as a DVC17 entry.

So the judging begins soon, right? I want to see the other videos already!

Jeez, I'm an impatient one, aren't I?
