Flash is up in the shorts section. I'm pretty satisfied with the final results, it was definately a lesson in how you can rework a bit from one take and use it in another, or stretch out the video from one clip, snip out the audio, and change the performance and timing of an actor.

Saw an ad in the paper for a $299 miniDV camera. I'm considering picking that up soon, since I just spent all my money that was supposed to be for a new PC or a decent video camera on upgrading to XSI 5. This gigapoly whatever better be worth it.

I've forgotten to update this since May, haven't I?

My tutorial DVD on how to use particleIllusion is finally complete after over a year of on and off work, and will be available shortly. Haven't decided on a price yet, but The Apprentice Magician's Guide to particleIllusion will run for an hour and 45 minutes.

 

I shot my first live action short film in a long long time on Saturday, with the aid of Jamesie and his band of crew that double as cast. It's called Flash. I finished editing last night, but still need to add in a visual effect in a few shots that I'm having trouble coming up with.

That'd be fine were this film just for fun, but it's for The DV Challenge, so I've only got until Friday to figure out what to stick in, and add some music. It doesn't seem too dead without music, but it feels like it needs something.

 

Back to work. And some breakfast would be nice.
