Chop chop.

Finally got off my arse and started "serious" editing on Interplanetary. At the moment, I'm working on Scene 55, featuring Mr. Kyle Holman...



"Editing" so far (I've only been working on it for an hour or so) has consisted of synchronizing audio to picture. Trap's been kind enough to go through the production audio for me and chop it up into individual takes. I think this is going to be a big time-saver for me, and I think all the various computer files involved in editing Interplanetary are going to end up much more organzied than those from Hide and Creep. Not that anything could be much less organized than the Hide and Creep edit...

Hey Chance, Speaking of nuts and bolts, real world filmmaking advice... how did you record your audio? And how are you syncing it up? What challenges, if any, are you having with this process? Can you elaborate on the whole process? Thanks, Dave Hughens

Wow, David. That's a big topic.

I'll plan to cover that in the next episode of "Things..." on Tuesday.

Thanks Chance! Actually, I'd rather you spend the time editing the film -- I can't wait to see it. Will you premiere in Birmingham? Might have to make the trip. Let me know if I can do anything to help you from afar.

All the best,

Dave

Too late -- it's already written. Look for it on Tuesday, and let me know if you have any more audio-related questions.
