Could not sleep so the trailer is up! (front page) and YouTube has a much better player now. First off it knows that you uploaded a widescreen video and it doesn't squish it and the embed code scales the video inside their player (adding black bars IF necessary). And you can force HD in the embedded player by tacking this in two spots. Thier encode looks pretty good for flash, not perfect but really good. Try to sleep time.

Updates WOOT!
-New festivals page in the tutorial section.
-Added more stills to the Muzzle Flash Study under tutorials.
-Got rid of the statics page.
-Got rid of the bookmark feature. (more like ugly annoyance)
-Added tracking codes to the sub-pages to I can see what you guys like and don't like.
I took a whole weekend off and I feel behind so I spent Labor Day weekend cutting the trailer together. The trailer is finishing AS WE SPEAK! (and perhaps before I publish this- current time 7:59pm). I really need to start marketing the hell out of this F-er. In short the trailer is like this: Logo,quick line, shooting, quick line, shoooooooting things blowing up, someone talks, more stuff blows up, end logo. Guy movie. If only I had girls running around in their underoos this would be a blockbuster!

I got Super excited to see an email from Slamdance, but it seems I didn't do the online payment. hahahahaahhhhh. Crap.
My grandma is too funny, she had no idea what the movie was about BUT it was great because I did it. That would really suck if it was the other away around!!

Alright what is going on....
-We entered Florida Film Fest, Cinequest FF and Boulder IFF.
-I sent out something like ohhhh 25 DVDs to all the crew people, and I found out I spelled two names wrong in the credits. I'm sorry guys, in the Super Deluxe version this will be corrected.
-Sent the film to be reviewed by Film Threat
-Received great feedback from Bob at Detonation Films (I love that place!)
-Ordered posters and postcards
-ha, finished the poster design.
Guess what?! No work for the Corps this weekend, wait I lied. I'm going to show my film to grandma this weekend. I'm trying to persuade her to bake cookies for the Festival Directors (and lace them with dollar bills! = nice) So I won't be playing DVD factory this weekend.
Ah and posted a ton NEW stills in the Sneak Peek section.

I've been neglecting you blog, I am sorry. Alright what has happened??
I got my printer working so I can print on the DVDs, thank you Epson.
I got a DVD copy now that doesn't strobe at random, thank you Compressor.
Sent off more entries to Slamdance, Sundance and Ann Arbor. Getting into any of these would be an epic success but I'm really hoping for Slamdance. It is long shot but I feel we would do well there. Dreams, lets keep them alive!
Still working on the poster. Trying to keep up with email inquires. Talking in fragments. Thinking of several projects large and small... And we got bumped off the #3 spot for War Film on google but we haven't left the top of the front page. Success.
Total side note: I finally got an iPhone and I have Panzer Corps encoded all pretty so I can show strangers at random. "Get back here and watch This!!!".

What a great/annoying weekend. Lets kick off with the great part.
Great:
Hung out with two of the actors (Lt. and Kurz) which was awesome fun!! Plus they treated me out, what more can you ask for? Thank you guys!! They are both in the Army and a few other Army dudes came over to watch the film. Here is the super great part, they understood it and liked it!!!
Annoying:
I have tried to burn the festival DVD at least oh 10 times now. In different scenes I'm getting a strobing pixilation. FAIL! I tired high and low bitrate VBR and CBR with no luck. AND Compressor is dead on my machine double Awesome!!! So i'm going to take the project work and try Compressor there and if everything is cool I'll start sending out DVD for cast, crew and festivals first. Annoying part II- I bought a DVD printer and after installing, uninstalling and reinstalling drivers for half of Sunday I have no luck. FAIL! WHY can't things that i pay for just work?... Annoying, but like all problems you bash them into submission until they go your way. Or return said problems and give someone else your money EPSON! *shaking fist*
Well that prompted me to accomplish Something this weekend so I started working on the poster. I have to finish this pretty quick since my printing connection is going away at the end of the month. Here is a glimpse, any feedback is Welcome! Yes there will be more info.

We're almost there. Run down of what is happening:
- New teaser has 800 views in a week! Feels great getting positive feedback, feels real good.
- Still hanging out in #3 in google for War Film!!
- The site is getting more hits (soon as this Mother-F'er is done there will be more tutorials!)
- Jeff, Dave and I picked the film grain out of 20 choices. After Effects won over Shake.
- The editor of baltimoresun.com helped re-write to opening to the film (Much better!)
- Sound mixing is done
- I just snatched a great press lead, thank you old friend.
In all honestly I'm finding it very difficult to keep pushing this last little bit. At this point it is what it is (I hate that statement), but without tearing the whole thing apart it can't get much better. I have learned a lot, this film has really showed me where to go with my next project and what NOT to do. Once things calm down I'm going to write an inspiration page because film making is tough, and it is real tough when it is no longer fun and no one is pushing you but you! Just keep pushing and make it happen.

New teaser is doing well!
After two days it already has 200 views. The youtube and fxhome community is already giving great feedback! Getting there, time is running short and lots has to get done. On a super good note I watched the film on Jeff's BIG screen, it needs tweaks but it looks like film! This weekend is more sound mixing and ~hopefully~ next week i'll being doing the "final" output.

So much stuff has been going on. Okay I sent the film to St Louis Internal Film Festival and AFI (scheduled rejections). After that... made more edits so the end moves right along (there was a funky pause). More and more sound mixing. Teaser III uploaded to youtube and a quicktime in the Behind The Scenes. What else?... Been hanging at number 3 in google for war film. Awesome.
Well less than a month and it finally has to be done. Finally, the deadline.

Output Test
I'm going to send the film off prematurly to a few festivals plus i wanted to test the whole final output. So the film is about 20 minutes, it took 8-10 hours to output from Final Cut (uncompressed), 25 hours to add grain and convert to 24p and not sure how much time to encode the first DVD. Overall a looooong process. But it was well worth the knowledge.

Got some sound into the opening credits. I spent almost the whole day categorizing thousands of sound effects into folders. I am going to dream about many many things tonight such as cows, telephones and ice cream trucks. (and none of those sounds will be in the film)
Five new sections are in the tutorials section. A preprouction, production, post-production and marketing and preproduction teasers. I have been neglecting that area for a while.
I heard on Friday we made it to three on google for War Film, one of the gals at work got a screen grab for me!!

1. Well 99% of the effects are done, there is still one shot that bothers the hell out of me because it isn't as cool as I pictured. Uhhhh and its being a bastard, I LOVE Shake but sometimes the normal logic doesn't apply for some reason. Whatevers.
2. I did my first full test of the total finishing/grading process and it looks AMAZING! The film will be converted into 24P, a nice luma curve will be slapped on, a nice thick layer of grain and it looks like film. Here is the flip side, a fifteen second clip took a half hour to render.... Its going to take a week to render this. Killer. But it looks really really good.
3. This weekend i'm going to take a deep stab into the sound effects and cleaning up the sound. We'll see how that goes, I might have to take another week off to finish this. I have had Sound Track Pro for years and I really never used it, tell you what, editing sound in 5.1 is easy!!! Its flipping awesome! I have to make a tutorial about that after i learn more.
4. WE MADE IT NUMBER 4 ON GOOGLE for WAR FILM. FOUR!
5. Two new sneak peek stills are up of the grading test.

Worked on the ending of the film all weekend. The last shots are epic and they can kiss my ass. Serious, they were brutal..... Image you HAVE to do something but it fights you to the bitter end. I spent 48 hours minus sleep fighting a handful of shots. But it looks 100% better then the first rendition and about 10,000% better than the temp Fighter Bomber that was there. I feel like a large ape beat the crap out of me all weekend.

Part 2 (actual movie update)
Last weekend (three day memorial day weekend) i got to the end of the film for special effects. I'm actually "happy" with 8/10 of the film at this point. I still need to get the epic ending done and edit the open credits. Damn i wish i could take another week off to hammer the visuals out.

I'm falling behind on getting back to people. I need a secretary HAHAHAHA! This memorial day weekend i WILL get back to everyone and I WILL keep hammering on the effects. Last weekend I got a lot done, i'm finally "happy" with the first third of the film (minus the opening credits). This weekend i'm going to try to knock out the main battle. Motion tracking is your friend and enemy.
To the dudes who are watching this stuff, Thank You!
May/13/2008 23:11
Popped up to 17 which is page TWO for "war film", man that is awesome. Right now we're hanging around 26, i can't wait to cut a trailer and see where that takes us.
Other news- still hammering on effects. Right now there are 111 "heavy" effects shots and the number just keeps growing and growing. Once you start adding "roll over effects" such as someone shoots in this shot so Now the next two shots need smoke, they add up. I think I'll make the August date but there is still a ton to do. Will it ever end?

We're still hanging in the upper 30s for war film! Most awesome!! But honestly I haven't gotten much done this week, GTA4 came out and I have been glued to the set. If you don't know what I'm talking about, it's only the best video game EVER! Okay okay, i know. This weekend i work like mule, okay?!
On a side note: The new teaser has just as many views on youtube as some of my other videos that have been there for a year!

Jeff and I went to the National Archives, whew talk about really cool and boring all at the same time. Really cool that there is hundreds of tapes ready for you to copy, boring- the copying. It was a very weird experience being checked in 10 ways to sunday but we each got a researcher pass funny picture included. If you can make a government worker laugh your doing something right!

Holy crap, i jacked up the movie something fierce today. I was working on the opening title sequence and i wasn't paying attention to how i was shifting and deleting clips. Well I got most of the film out of sync to the point that I reverted back to an earlier save in the day. No real harm done, just a few minutes of terror! 
Thankfully my own motto saved me "Save and Save Often".
Anyways, new Muzzle Flash Study added under War Film Tutorials.

Once again a lot has happened since the last blog. I was able to take a week off from work and do solely effect! Twelve hours a day for nine days and there are over 100 effects so far. With the vast majority at least roughed in i can now spend time make each shot look as best as possible. Right now the new teaser (teaser II) is posted on the main page.
Enjoy

Lots of stuff has happened, tons of test screeners went out and lots of feedback came back.
One need "sneak peak" image has been added- The EFFECTS HAVE COMMENCED! Sadly i won't have a vacation soon so this is going to be even slower than i anticipated. This sucks. I really need a month off, but i can't even have a week. Really sucks. Anyways, go look at the muzzle flash.
You want a war film, i give you a war film!

Last night Jeff, one of my producers came over and we reworked the (temporary) opening, lots of voice over work to get done. If you know any Russians of Germans in the Baltimore area let me know!

AH Damnit! I've been putting a ton of work into the site and i just realized i have to re-do a lot of it..... uhhhhhh. I've been putting these nice black boarders on the images in Rapid Weaver, thats nice other than it more than doubles the file size of the images. Lame lame lame. (means, takes longer for people to view pages) So back to photoshop. I love Rapid Weaver (what i build the site with) but times like this make me want to bang my head.... against something hard.
Anyways i've been reworking all the art work on the site, I had too many different types of fonts and wacky page layouts. Simple baby- Black and White. Must be late, i didn't know 00:49 was a time of day.

Still not online Buuuuut making massive updates to the site and film. I "should" have DSL by the 5th. I'm trashing the whole gray look for a simple black and white theme for the website; much more direct and easy on the eyes.... or I'm bored of the gray?. Anyways i live like a monk and drink like a pirate; i need to get out more. Damn the holidays, i guess the movie will be my gal.... pathetic. HA!

I have been mulling over this footage for months now and i just really realized that one of my producers and my 1st AD played dead bodies for the main battle. I knew this don't get me wrong, but it just dawned on me why there never seemed to be enough hands on set HAHAHAHA. Ohhh good stuff. Well, they look good laying there.
This week i've been adding in cool shots now that the story is pretty much in place. My future self is going to hate me, but i want to get as many effects shots as possible in this short film. Yeah, he's gonna wanna kick me ass. (btw- I'm sure i've never typed "gonna wanna" before)

There is a good reason for this, I moved into a new apartment AND by choice I have no internet, no cable, and not by choice a broken XBOX360. Needless to say this has helped my productivity immensely. Go to work, come home and work on the movie. Real fun..... Not really. The good part is a full rough cut is done! Now all the cool little shots are being added in and all the fat is being trimmed. Here is a timeline of the movie: Open, action, plot, action/ plot, credits. Beautiful!
If you have emailed me or commented on You Tube i apologize for not getting back to you. I hope you understand why. Okay if your seeing this that means i figured out how to update the site from work...

Love the word "Frick", if you watch the Battle Star you will too.
The edit is coming along very nice, some of the scenes seem to cut themselves while some are painful. Sometimes you have to kill your darlings, a teacher said that to me once. Its brutal but he was right.
*Side Note* You want to know something funny? You do?! Great!! There was a lot of butterflies that Love flying by the lens. Annoying, but pretty... Yeah, the actor delivers this great line and a nice present flutters by. Splendid but distracting.

I have been watching the behind of the scenes of Lord of the Ring- Return of the King, there is a segment about this 16 year old kid with cancer making films in his last months. Holy crap, if that doesn't light a fire under your ass and in your heart nothing will. Keep on cracking!
