Oops

darrell in a diaper :/

Big House felt the story they wrote was a bit too vague now that they have seen it all together and in one piece - so in the interest of overall enjoyment, a bit of rearranging, editing and alternate things were requested. The film was cut by a minute and a bit. the existing score, which was timed to the previous edit, was hacked, cross faded and re-arranged from the existing files to try and best accommodate the new cut. The film will screen this Wednesday at the Westin Bayshore. Tickets can be purchased for alot of money here.

Signed, Sealed, Delivered

zach and cassie

The initial edit for the Lotus Awards introduction film was submitted to Big House this afternoon for feedback before picture lock. Running time is currently around five minutes. Samples from the score will be posted up someplace soon. Additionally, Big House has requested a piece of music to play during the various winner's walk from their table to the podium. That needs to be done very soon.
