So we actually did it. We shot out a feature in a week. Kristi is syncing sound as we speak.
We want to say a special thank you to everyone that helped us out so much. Obviously Mom and Dad did a ton for us during this entire process. Thank you so much for everything. Thanks to Phil, Kelli, Dallin, and Mary for coming out and being extras. Definitely to the Dollys and Hansens for letting us use their maze and for the burgers and hot chocolate. There were so many people that made this a really good experience for all of us. So thank you all.
I thought I would throw up some stills so you could see what the footage is looking like so far. I did a quick contrast and color pass with Photoshop, so this is not what it's going to look like in the end, but it still looks pretty nice.
Take a close look at this poster and see if you find anything familiar about it.
Yes indeed. A $3M movie gave their international rights to the same company that carried Dragon Hunter. They didn't like the way the actual dragon in the movie looked so they decided to just use ours, and put a different head on it.
It's undeniably the exact same body. Their dragon looks like a giant flaming sting ray, so I can see why they would want to trade up, but they could have asked.
Even the way that the texture under the arm doesn't quite blend seamlessly.
Here's a side view of the texture and shape of the dragon's neck. We've been robbed.
I met with our distributor yesterday about this. We'll see what happens in the future.
I'll post about something cooler soon. Kristi and I have been insanely busy and very tired gearing up for the shoot in November. So until things calm down again, here's a screaming, angry, Halloween pepper.
There's some insane lightning going on down here this morning. It's pretty cool, but I figured I'd better post something now in case the power goes out or something.
I told dad about this the other day, so I figured I should post a photo as evidence of its existence. Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you the White Album Puzzle.
Yeah, that's what I though...
In other news, Kristi and I got to enjoy a little weekend away at the Little America in Salt Lake, courtesy of her indentured servitude at her current job.
They offered her a little gift as a Thank You for her 80 hour week a little while back.
And last but not least, A little message about the upcoming flu season:
You heard it from Bela Lugosi himself. Get your flu shots. PULL THE STRINKS! PULL THE STRINKS!
