    Almost done!

    Quick update!

    We are now officially done with the sound mix! It sounds absolutely amazing, a completely different movie with the full sound in. It took a little longer than expected but finally done!

    VFX work also took a little longer than expected since Todd was hooking it up but also juggling between his own projects, but it looks great!

    Now off to the colorist - within a week the movie should be finally complete!

    Thank you all for your patience!

    SUCCESSFUL FUNDING!!

    FAM,

    THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!! 122% funded! : D

    It has been very touching to see so much support from you all. When I first posted this kickstarter thing up, i really didn't think we could make the $3000 goal, but as we built momentum, I was really moved by the huge amount of support that my friends, family, and even strangers have shown.

    Currently, the film is being worked on my my Sound Designer, VFX artist, and my Composer. We should be done by the end of July at the latest.

    The next step after sound design and music will be color correction. And after that, Marketing!!

    In the time being, you guys can keep up with what's going on through our twitter, facebook, youtube, or tumblr.

    Music

    We're almost there!! Can't Thank y'all enough for the support and love in helping with this little project of mine. This is the last week, and I have faith that we can reach our goal!

    Currently the film is in the hands of our sound designer Greg and him and his team have already begun work on the sound starting this week.

    I've also found a very good music composer for the film. His name is Alexis Grapsas, check out his work here: http://www.alexisgrapsas.com/ Pretty good huh?

    Hope everyone has a great week!
