I get up in the morning, watch Nudged and make note of a page or two of changes to do. Then, I spend the next few days making the changes, making viewable files and then do it all over again. It is getting finished.
Jason is composing music which is no small task. Ninety six minutes of music. It’s the music that makes the movie come alive.
I also made note that all movies now need closed captioning and so have been researching software to facilitate this process.
Finally, another insight into the process. I needed a cut away shot in order to shorten a long, sequence that needed shortening, but I had no shot to use. I did have a long shot from earlier in the scene so I tried creating a composite. See the clip below for the result.
Concerning music…
For “2001: A Space Odyssey” Stanley Kubrick used classical pieces temporarily before the film composer Alex North completed the score. But Kubrick liked the classics so much he kept them and never used North’s music. Kubrick did get sued for distorting the music of Gyorgy Ligeti to represent alien voices.
OK, Jason, consider this motivation to finish your score!
