However, in the past few weeks I have gotten back on this horse and have started riding it towards a finish that not that long ago seemed an impossible task. Here now, sitting at my computer, finishing it seems to be no longer impossible, only formidable. That's good. We have been calling it "The Endings" since the first draft of the script, however I don't think that will be the final name. Hunter Multz-Matthews, the producer, was talking to me about the title and he said it was too vague. I agreed! The title of a movie, or of anything, is a very important part of the work itself. It is the name given to it by it's creators and it should have a meaning. It could be ironic, funny, explaining, even a plot device. I'm not sure what we will end up calling this current film, but it would be nice to take advantage of the title and use it as just another way to pull the film together.
Editing has been swell! I always forget how much fun it is and am always a bit scared to get going on a project. But once you get into the swing of things, it's hard to remove yourself. It's addicting really; playing with timing, and seeing how angles fit together. The film is coming along splendidly and I'll hopefully be finished with it in the next few weeks. At least before I leave for Savannah. We'll be showing it during Christmas break when all the cast and crew are back from their adventures to reunite in Homer. I'm expecting that to be a lot of fun.
Below is a screenshot I found while looking for some clips. It's not going to be used in the final movie, but it made me laugh.
Any more information that comes down the line will be announce here as well as on another website dedicated completely to the movie.
The cast and crew is made up of: Oceana Wills, Hunter Multz-Matthews, Ethan Martin, Nikki Ervice, Dan Westerburg, Ken Landfield, Clara Noomah, Jake Schmutzler, and myself. Allot of thanks also goes to Tom Taffe for helping us on the equipment side. Thank you to everybody!
