Ready to Edit!

Today I finished all my filming, so all there is to do now is edit. I'm already re-working the opening sequence with music, and let me tell you, it's gonna be good. I'll keep you updated with more information. Now, a story that shows how much I love you, my viewers.

While filming last Sunday in the desert, some chiggers got to my legs (as well as those of my dads and some of my actors), now if you're unfamiliar with these specimen, then let me explain what they do. When the bite, it itches... terribly, and supposedly it should last for a few weeks. This means that every day for the last week, I've been applying different types of anti-itch medications constantly in order to quell the storm. Not much luck...

Also, the desert contains TONS of weeds, most of which ended up in my socks, forcing me to pull each little prick out individually. These things annoy the hell out of you after a few minutes, and after filming about 9 hours in the desert, I decided that no following film will contain scenes from this location. Period. But, the movie will turn out pretty good, so keep waiting for updates!

Manhunter Teaser Trailer

I just finished the first trailer for Manhunter! Here it is...

Almost done!

I just finished filming the last scene yesterday, and all we need now is two more clips that we lost in the transition of transferring the data to the computer. I'll be getting used to Final Cut Pro the next few days, so it may be another week or two before I get a teaser trailer up.

4/5 Filmed

Only one day of filming to go, and then we'll be finished. Its gonna look good I think, so watch out for it. Here are some more stills.

Updates Galore!

Two things are needed to be said. First, we finished our 3rd filming date on Sunday, and some of the effects are going to look great on film! I also edited another scene. Second, I'm gonna completely re-edit the film... why? Because I'm getting Final Cut Pro!! That's right, this film is going to be edited on a professional editing software used by the Coen Brothers and many more filmmakers.

2/5 Done!

Just filmed the second of 5 days that we're planning on filming. The schedule is so delicate that it could go either way. If one day gets moved, then either we'll have to do a ton of catch up another day or it doesn't get made. This scene is looking pretty good, in a week or two a trailer should be up...

Filming Days and More Info

I just got my final actor, and it sounds like May 29th should be our last day of filming. Hopefully a week or so after that I should have a teaser trailer up. I'll also try and keep track of some stats regularly.

Time Spent on Project- 30 hours, including all the writing, talking, and filming so far.

Money Spent- $40 for making fake blood and making the blood shooter.

First Update

So today we shot the opening scene of Manhunter, and its really intense! Here are some photos from the production...
