There are 4 phases that need to be completed to finish your product - pre-production, production, post-production, and distribution. I am proud to say that our pre-production and production phases have been completed successfully. We now need to keep working to complete the remaining tasks.
First of all, we needed to do a [...]
Well, it has been 2 weeks since “The Music of Eric Zann” was wrapped, and all I keep thinking is, I definitely want to do this again.
Classes have resumed, assignments are due, overdue, and we have meetings. Tons of meetings. So far, we have met with the creative digital design guys numerous times and have come [...]
So, there’s been so much talk about the movie but what about the iPad application? Well, I haven’t forgotten about it. Wednesday June 23th was the end of the term and we had an presentation where the five teams demonstrated their progress so far. We are excited about the reactions we received from the audience [...]
This was the moment – the day of the “money shot”. Jon Berezen did an incredible and amazing job on the makeup for the character, Eric (played by Paul Toolan). We were all fascinated and in awe of the key reveal of Eric Zann. We also spent a ridiculous amount of time trying to get the music [...]
I’m so excited to see our movie come to life. It has been a long path since the beginning of this project – 6 weeks to be exact! Props, costumes, cast, crew and craft services are in place. Our call time is at 12:15pm. At 1pm we will start shooting “The Music of Erich Zann”.
So [...]
So Term 3 came and went so fast that I cannot believe that is actually half of my year at VFS. I still have more things and stories to share about the Project Space Squid, but today I’ll just write about the meeting we had.
It was 4.30 p.m, and our Head of Department Jessica (fearless and assertive leader I [...]
We’ve run over our to-do list over and over again. Yet it feels like something is missing.
We spent most of Thursday finalizing that list again and getting all of the odds and ends tied up. First, we started out by subjecting our sheet music to a rigorous “aging process” (endless soaking sessions in tea, coffee, and Coke), then we planned [...]
We shot our footage nearly two weeks ago, and while it was great to be back on set (I’m an alumni that’s following an interactive route) I will admit that I was a little sad to not have more involvement on shoot day as I had in past student projects. Luckily for me, but not so lucky for my team, [...]
Up until this point I can honestly say we haven’t faced any true challenges. But now as we have entered the post-production phase, we are now facing more challenging obstacles but we excited to take these head on. Our main focus right now is completing our rough edits of the film, so we can get that over to our 3D [...]
The days are winding down and so is the money …yet, it feels like there is still so much to do. Our 3D guys are having difficulty with finalizing and committing to the green screen flooring. They have to create a floor, which will be time consuming. We have since decided that throwing a rug down would eliminate the tedious [...]
