Phase III Begins (2nd Cut)

December 18th, 2006 : by Will Moore

I officially started phase III of post-production today, which means I began the second round of editing. I actually completed the rough cut about a week early so I spent the last seven days working on the trailer, watching the rough cut, and taking notes. So far everything looks great and I seem to be way ahead of schedule. I’d hoped to have the rough cut down to a running time of about 2 1/2 hours but I am closer to one hour and fifty minutes. The final running time will be around 90-100 minutes so I don’t have much more cutting to go. I will spend the next four weeks bringing in sound, watching the film over and over and over again - in search of bad footage, bad cuts, bad acting, anything that has managed to fall through the cracks. I will also hold a couple test screenings in order to obtain honest feedback on the story. Stay tuned!

    The test screenings will be private and the people choosen will mostly be random. At this point the screenings help me focus on the story’s strengths and weaknesses.
