not as progressive, but progress none the less

I finished all the frame adjustments. It feels really good to have a milestone done and finished. i ended up staying up till like 4 in the morning the last tuesday i posted finishing it.

So i was going to borrow some stuff to do some sound recording but randy didn't have a recording devise, just the mikes and cords. So I looked into renting a portable sound recorder, the same one we had on the first foley stuff we did, and it was going to cost me like $150 with a $500 deposit. Yeah... so i was like no thanks. So after that i did a little more research and decided to borrow randy's stuff and hook them up to Grady's handy cam and record to mini DV that way. That's the way all the original audio was caputred anyway so it will match the movie. We were going to start recording this weekend but there was a hick up with finding a place to play some sirens. I drove all over the valley and even out of the valley looking for a parking lot or venue to play some sirens and record them but nobody wanted to let me do it :( i also had the ASU capstone screening to go to so that took a day out of my week. it took a whole day cause i went to both showings. they showed the film that i had gone up to the reservation to work on. turned out pretty well considering the circumstances. Saturday i spent the day with molly ( we bought an African Spurred Tortoise. ) Sunday i spent roughly 9 hours scheduling Randy's capstone with Stephanie. She signed on as the 1st AD. So ANYWAY.... i didn't get a lot done over the weekend. Then to top it all off, it has rained all week, which means i can't do my sound recording. I could do some interior stuff, but if it rains hard enough it'll pick up on the mic. So we'll just wait till it calms down. hopefully this weekend it'll clear up.

ASU Graduation is tomorrow so i'll be going to that.

I blitzed Kristin on Tuesday after noon and I got contacted by Kristin on Tuesday night. We texted back and forth for a bit. now it's been 8 days and nothing. i called her again today. i'll guess i'll just keep trying.

Antonio and I are getting together Friday about noon to go over some of the effects.

Haven't heard from Tom. I think he's in town. I'm going to email him tonight and try to call him tomorrow.

I spent last night working on the credits and fonts and stuff. I spent a few hours today trying to place some things into the movie. It's not working out too well. Not sure what i'm going to do. I had a drastic idea for a major edit. I'll do it and see what it looks like. It shouldn't interfere with tom's work. We'll see.
