There will be blood.

This weekend was perfect.  We worked Saturday night and all day Sunday and no one complained once.  My goal in all of this is less to finish a short than it is simply to see how far I can push good friends before they never want to speak to me again.  So far I've been delightfully surprised by the results.

In all seriousness, we had a very productive weekend.  I was hoping to have pictures to post from Saturday night but the barrels didn't last long enough to accommodate.  We finished at Jerry's house in about 2.5 hours and I love what we got.  We spent Sunday at Bryan's and had the good fortune of perfect weather.  After a little more than seven hours we had everything we needed.  The scene is much different both from how we shot it when we were there in September and even more so from how I wrote it originally.  I like our most recent version far more than our last attempt and I think it will edit nicely.  I applied some great make up to my friend Mike for that scene.  I really wish I could show you but it would spoil the story.

This Thursday, Friday, and (hopefully) Monday we'll be shooting our last three nights.  After we wrap early next week I'll complete the editing process, then the following weekend we'll remaster sound and burn it to a dvd and send it out.  The trailer will be up within two weeks, and the movie itself will be up shortly thereafter.  I've already begun developing this short into a feature-length story and I'm hopeful we'll get the opportunity to expand upon this story.

Thank you to everyone for all your support on this project.  Soon you'll be able to see the fruit of our labor.

Andrew.
