This is a Project London behind the scenes featurette! It details how we brought The Goose, the featured lifter in the movie, to life. The Goose started out as a Vietnam War era Choctaw Helicopter that we shot in a hanger at Paine Field (Everett, WA). But that was only the…

San Diego Sneak Preview: In Which Your Planet Is Chewed Upon

Let me just say: RAD.

So this past Saturday, while I was at the 2012 San diego Comic-Con, I had the incredible privilege to attend the Sneak Preview screening of Project London.

There were more than 100 victims people present at the event. Some of those people arrived early in expectation of the film which was screening after ours. But during the course of the film, these unsuspecting attendees quickly became…

The Producer's Report #154 | It's Go Time!

It's been awhile since we talked. Sorry about that. We've been immensely busy, dealing with crashed edit systems and laptops, ramping up color correction and the final work on the soundtrack. And today, I'm really pleased to say that we are making great progress to finish the movie!

On the color correction side of things, Barry Gregg…

The Producer's Report #153 | Moving Forward Again!

The edit system is working again! I've output uncompressed AVI files for Barry Gregg and will be meeting him at Starbucks in Edmonds (Washington, USA) in a couple hours to hand him a 2TB hard drive with the movie, Spiral's Blackmagic Design Ultrascope, and our best wishes for a efficient and fun color correction.

The Producer's Report #152 | Edit System Crash Part 2

Dang nab it. We were chugging along and then crash. The little battery on the edit system motherboard needed replacing, so I replaced it. But in the process of removing and replacing the Blackmagic card to gain access and replace the little battery, the card was fried. So dang. We have a replacement Blackmagic card on order. It should be here…

Director Update: 545 | Tiny Town

When I was younger I thought all cities were the same size. All down-towns just a mile or two across, surrounded by endless suburbs. But man! After growing older and seeing a few more cities I realized: Seattle is tiny!

It's hard to go somewhere in Seattle and not bump into a place we filmed…

Director Update: 544 | AE Tutorial

Whew! You don't composite almost a thousand shots for a film without learning a few tricks! I learned a lot of time-saving techniques over the course of the past few years, and wanted to show you guys one of the cooler (though not as universally practical) ones; how to make some clouds and environments look 3d!

I was SUPER out of it when I recorded this (I didn't realize how out of it till later in the day, when I tried to interact with actual people), but I…
