First off, apologies for the lack of updates to the blogsite but it has taken everybody about a week to catch up with themselves.MAKE SURE YOU SCROLL DOWN TO SEE THE UPDATED 'PRESS COVERAGE' SECTION.
To say that the shoot was gruelling would be an understatement. 9 days of night shoots had everybody investigating creative ways to block out the sun in their bedrooms during the day. Black bags, blankets, air travel masks and then there's still trying to work out how to deafen the noise of a world going about it's daily business.
Breakfast at 17:30, lunch at 00:30 and then on the way home, pizza for dinner at 06:30am at Catz Pyjamas in Melville, the only place that's open at that time of the morning. We tried ordering a beer after a long hard day, uh, night but were informed it was only served from 10am. Coffee then. Decaf, please.
Three copies of 1.2 Terrabytes of footage (terrabyte = 1000 gigabytes) are now scattered through Jhb. We are currently waiting for Apple to have stock of their quad-core 2.66 Mac Pro so that we can start editing the footage. Due to the nature of the quality of the footage we have, we need to edit in Premier Pro so as not to lose a generation of quality. So, basically we're going to run Premier Pro in Windows XP Pro on an Apple Mac Pro. We love the irony.
Soon though, we will have a trailer to show the world and you will be the first to see it at our official WRAP PARTY which should take place towards the end of the month. Watch this space for details.
Thank you once again for your fantastic support and we look forward to showing you the quality of the project you are a part of. Keep checking back for more blog posts.
