Thanksgiving 2009 Update

Oh how it’s been years since we started this project….and yet…we’re still not done. Now I know you’re saying, “Dude, you said you’d be done by Halloween” well you’re right, we did in fact say that, no lie in that– and we had our hearts set on really doing that, alas it was not to be. What’s new right? Well here’s the simple fact of the matter, if we all didn’t have full time jobs, kids, newborns, and so on (we’ve had at least TWO production babies on this project), we’d have been done a year ago and would be touring this film with all sorts of film fests and screenings, how exciting!

So here’s where we stand as of today. The film is fully edited, most of the special effect digital shots are complete, I believe there are a few shots that have yet to be completed. Which raises this point, if you’re an After Effects wizard, we’d love to put you to work, for free naturally. Just send us an email through our contact page and we can fill you in on the rest. The score is also coming along nicely, although we’re still trying to figure out the best place to squeeze in a theremin, it’ll happen, but I’m not saying where yet. The rest of the audio work for the film is the last sticking point we have yet to conquer. We’ve got very capable hands on the project, but those capable hands are going to be touring Eastern block European countries for the holidays and therefore unable to make any real headway on the film until 2010. Sooooo add all of this together and looking to my magic 8 ball I say we’ll be done in time for Summer, maybe sooner, March at the earliest….again we’ll see. But seriously, if I’m writing this same note to you in a year, something horribly HORRIBLY went wrong along the way. Therefore, barring the Mayan calendar coming to an end early and a cataclysmic fiery finish to the world as we know it, the next update I write to you will be giving details saying we’re done….or something really really REALLY close.

Meanwhile, if you’re really hungry to see something new, might I suggest you google search for our Director of Photograpy, Dave R Preston, check out his blog for an extra zombie treat….you just might find the completed opening credits to our film.

Have a great Thanksgiving, and now I’m off to eat a dead beast!
