A big week for announcements!

This week, we have been able to make two exciting announcements....the first is that we will be running another IndieGoGo campaign to complete the film and secondly we have now moved onto the next stage of the post production process, which is colour grading and online, working with BAFTA award-winning colourist Andre Rusu.

The reasons for the second IndieGoGo campaign is to raise enough funds to prepare the film for festivals at by creating all the correct masters, posters and DVDs so the film looks as professional and visually inspiring as it had throughout, as well as covering the expenses of our post production teams.

Our first IndieGoGo campaign was very successful and everyone on the team worked very, very hard to make that budget go as far as it could, but it has just not been possible for it to take us from concept to screen. We also wanted to build up momentum for the films release by engaging with our backers (and get some new ones!) as this was something we very much enjoyed last time around and think it would be great to see people excited about the films release again!

As with every other department, we have strived to get the best possible on board and have continued that with Andre, who was part of the BAFTA winning team for the 2011 Best Short "Until The River Runs Red". You can check out his website www.colourgrade.com to see why we are so pleased he is on board with the project. I met up with up yesterday and he is currently ingesting the media ready for our first session on Saturday.

We are also still continuing with the sound composition and design and have a rough first mix of the sound and score already. I am meeting with Alexis (composer) on Friday to go through some ideas so we can get into fine-tuning and also doing some ADR with Joss and Anna (our sound designers) as well as our cast next Monday at a studio in Soho. I am hoping that by the end of April we will be in very good shape as we aim to get the entire film completed by 16th May :-)
