Wednesday (yesterday): We wrapped a 2 day shoot I directed with DP, Wilson Webb, for a new client. The shoot used the Canon 7D video camera and covered 6 concepts, multiple locations and even a greenscreen. The pieces needed varying levels of finish, including digitizing, music, editing, color, sound design, and chroma keying (subject separated from green screen).
Thursday (today): We had music ready in the morning by Joe and his team from Pixel Farm Music. By 11am, dailies were ready for me to start making selects with our editor, Doug. By 3pm, rough cuts were ready on 3 pieces and backgrounds for the green screen piece were purchased by our producer, Paul. By 6pm, one content piece was off to get chroma keyed and the other two were off to sound design and music.
Friday (tomorrow): Repeat steps for the other 3 content pieces. All 6 go to color correction with Dave and we'll get everything put together and ready for client review for Monday.
Monday: Get client feedback in the morning and make final tweaks for delivery by the end of day.
The scary thing is, we could've finished on Friday if we had too. We wouldn't have liked it, but it's possible with the kind of tools and talent we have. This was my first full on collaboration with the post production team - and it was very informative and, well, fun. Pairing this kind of talent and efficiency with good thinkery could make for some rewarding and timely work.
I also met someone cool today who I'm excited to collaborate with. He's around 9 ft tall with height and vision. I asked and he has accepted our first official invitation to The Thunderdome.
