It's coming together quite nicely...muahahahaaa
So after I finished compositing the prologue of the film I decided at 4am to cut it together using a temp track Endika gave me a few months back AND it almost brought a tear to my eye because is was AWESOME ^ ^ That was the first time I had seen any finished footage with the music and I must say we are on to something here 0_0 I make what I want to see... and there is nothing that exists that completes this vision I have but I think HSM is going to be it 0_0
There is a Japanese word that describes what I have been after... I came across it while doing research for the film and when I did I was like OH this is what I am after?!?!?!
So it was the perfect time for me to be hellS_AH excited because Endika and I were just talking about getting a pair of ribbon mics to do the final recordings... why was it the perfect time? because ribbon mics are expensive and sometimes you need a lot of enthusiasm to put things on credit ^ ^
So after consulting my pals Adam and Tomek here who are like mega INFORMED when it comes to recording etc... they told me that the AEA R84 was probably the best choice for the things Endika needs to record...
So he and I both bought one so now he was a stereo pair to record with... NOW recording real instruments is NOT my area of expertise but we did a lot of research and consulted a few peeps who got that knowledge...
Yeh it's a lot of money but we were talking it about we realize... we will NEVER make this film ever again...NOW is the TIME... and you have to THROW IT DOWN and GO ALL OUT some time?!....so if not NOW on this project WHEN? When the film is done we have to see it and listen to it for a year+ before the next film so we better be happy with it...and I doubt after its done and GREAT we're going to be going "OH I wish I hadn't spent that $1000 on that microphone OH!?"
I'm thinking of releasing the prologue as a teaser trailer next month...what yall think? OF COURSE it will have no title and no text referring to the film so it can be easily mistaken for other things BUT yeh ^ ^Brought to you by professional weirdo M dot Strange.
