As Fine as a Fine Edit. . .
Places I'd like to visit - Portland, Oregon. Atlantis. Space. Antarctica. That's in order, order of preference.
So the three days of the fine edit are complete. (TRiBE) is looking like a documentary film now, which is very exciting. It flows well and is interesting and funny and pretty.
The extra shots didn't happen, after discussing them further we decided that we didn't need them. I bought these Star Trek dolls (they're actually called action figures) especially for the shot. But atleast now I have Star Trek dolls, and they kept us amused during the edit time.
Sarah played with Motion and we now have captions come up when people appear that say their names and what they do in the club. It's exciting, having a professional look. We decided to do a different colour caption bar for each club, which works. I really want a shirt with an alien on it.
There's still a couple of little edit details that we need to do, so I'll be negotiating with people to get some time on the edit machine! We need to complete the opening and closing credits, as well as cutting the intro and conclusion and adding in some drive time instead of it. Although I haven't completely decided on that one. We're having a show and tell tomorow morning so I'm interested to hear what my fellow students have to say on it. It good? It bad? Who knows!
The film is still without a title! HELP! I'll be calling it (TRiBE) until I have one.
What about "So what did you do on the weekend?"?

Here's a picture from the fine edit. I want these toys in the movie, dammit!
We're focussing the film on the characters, the charm they all bring into it. The down to earth, ordinariness they have, despite the fact that they long to be Vader or Billy Ray Cyrus or whatever. If Darth Vader did go into country music, he'd have to call himself Billy Ray Vader. Imagine that. Genius.
