Yankee Nuclear Apocalypse Strike

Apparently I hadn't updated the blog in awhile.

Lots has changed for me again, but Kenny slowly moves on. It is the glacier of cinematic destruction, moving slowly but soon all will be helplessly consumed by it.

I am cleaning up a few last things like burnishing some of the greenscreen keys. The film is taking on its final appearance. What remains are more final effect renders. Still can't say when, but this ship will someday reach shore.

Mixology

Long day working on the mix of Kennyboy. Really exciting to see the final audio come together. Jake, Josh and Brendan have been working hard the last few weeks and have done a fantastic job. They're great guys to work with and the movie is finally assuming its finished form. There's still a few more visual effects to work in, but hopefully that's coming along shortly.

It was a hard day of work, but the audio guys really did all the heavy lifting getting the film ready for the mix. Red Robin supplied any missing calories from the long day. Mike single-handedly made management reconsider their bottomless fries policy, while Patrick and I altered the time-milkshake continuum.

quick follow-up

I had a good conversation with our lead sound operative last night. Sounds like he's making good progress. His team has been handling all the post details, and final mix is not so far in the future.

Update

Things are moving along. Exact completion date hasn't been set, but it's coming up soon.

Fire it up

Let's hop in that way-back machine and head for the spring of 2008. Flowers were blooming, it was snowing and Kennyboy shooting was in full swing. Here are some "lost" production pics of our day with Terence.





Expensive stuff - in the sink!


I think everyone pretty much expected to see something like this.



Bad to worse...



As for that update, Kenny is getting all shipped off to our audio man, who will be working quickly to finalize Kennyboy. We're not quite there yet, but we're getting much closer.

Update?

This is an update to expect an update soon.

Congratulations...

to Nicholas Kocan, Kennyboy's Director of Photography. He just had his screenplay accepted to the Mexico International Film Festival. This is a great achievement, so be sure to congratulate him if you see him on the street or in his bedroom or however you experience Nicholas Kocan.
