BRAVO! broadcast will be in Spring 2010

I just heard that Bravo! will broadcast our film "sometime in Spring 2010."

In the meantime, we will be submitting to various festivals. We have already been short-listed at Clermont-Ferrand based on a work-in-progress we submitted.

There is still some technical short-stroking to do on the festival version. Once we're done, we'll have a better idea of when the launch/premiere for cast, crew, friends and family will be.

Stay tuned!

In the meantime, here is a copy of our promotional postcard artwork.

Sign, sealed, delivered

A copy of IN THE COOLER sent off to Bravo! yesterday. Off to New York City for a little perspective reboot.

Foley and out

We were back in at Boogie studio yesterday working the sound mix for the film. We have our extra 50%!

The sound for one of our scenes was totally unusable. Last week, I ADR'd my character's voice. Yesterday, we did Foley - incidental sound, post, to picture. Unexpected fun: me in the recording booth shuffling various papers around and snapping my fingers, Jacob rubbing two pillows together to simulate the natural sound of character movement (from clothing.)After years of experience, he is an expert in frottage!

Ended the evening with a finished film, sound and picture wise. Really enjoyed seeing the almost-almost final product while sipping red wine with the mighty Denis Eric.

There's some business with frame rates to adjust, and then striping.

We hope to deliver a final version to Bravo! by the end of next week.

Then it really will be all over.

Except the blowing up to 35 mm, DVD dubs, labels, festival entries - and, oh yeah, a launch party! Starting to look like it will be in early December now.
