This coming week...

Update #8 · Jun 8, 2012 · comment

...I'll be done with the edit and sound design!  I've had a couple obstacles to hurdle like learning a whole new editing program (Final Cut X is nothing like FInal Cut 7.0) and some serious audio compatibility issues (Final Cut X doesn't output for professional sound design) but I'm finally there (and will never use Final Cut X again). I'm cutting a trailer this week for a New York Television Festival so when it's ready, I'll post it.  

As for the show itself, it's looking great.  So much so, the scope of the project has changed a little. Instead of posting online right away, we're going to shop it to see if we can find some production money to make additional episodes.  If we were to post now, I fear that we couldn't make additional episodes fast enough to capitalize on whatever momentum we might build. As it is now pilot season, we're going to throw our hat in the ring and pitch it the best we can. 

Thank you everyone and wish us luck!  If we're a success, it's because of you!

Best,

Jon
