Test Lacquer High-Five!
Helks yeah! After a skippy round with the first Test Lacquer from Aardvark, the second Test Lacquer for “C is for Cthulhu” arrived yesterday and it was flawless. We are back on track! Nice job Aardvark folks!
Now they just send the plate over to the pressing plant and, crossing our fingers, they will have it back to us in time for the October release. With a bit over two months to go and the plating work done by Aardvark, we should be in good shape.
VIDEO SHOOT IS BACK ON TRACK!
It was starting to look pretty gloomy there with everyone’s crazy schedule but looks like Wednesday August 27 is going to be the date to finish the most critical remaining scenes in the video.
Makana has had a bunch of Mixed Martial Arts bouts going on (yes, she is a MMA fighter – awesomeness in spades!!) and she’s been too busy training for those fights so we’ve had to put shooting on hold for a while but she’ll have a break from kicking ass and chewing gum so now we are back on track! I’ve scheduled a whole day of work from my day job to prepare the set for that evening’s shoot and everyone else is ready for an evening of standing in front of a green screen. By my estimate, I alone am looking at a 12-16 hour day for maybe 90 seconds of footage. That’s nutters but par for the course. What can I say except welcome to the crazy world of “film.”
After that is done, all we have left is one short, on-location shot in Galveston for the epilogue and a nightmare scene with Christian Best. In other words, after the 27th, we’re pretty much in the home stretch. Woop!
