Pick ups for Bong finaly done!

Yesterday was the last chapter in capturing the final pick ups for Bong Of The Dead! Why did I want to shoot more one year later? Well I always had some really cool shots in my head and of course because of the tight schedule I had put together for the actual shoot, I had to let go of some shots. Well, now that the film is technically finished and I’m tweaking it I thought heck its a perfect time to get those inserts I always wanted for some added gore! I called Mike Fields and his lovely assistant Mandi, Gabriel Medina, Andres Santana who are the usual suspects in making these things happen. Once the micro crew showed up it was time for some really disgusting movie magic. I have a couple pictures here but nothing that truly shows what we were up to. Im sorry but you will have to wait for the movie to see that.

Try to keep your real hands in tact!

Looking good!

Thats using your head!

The Final chapter in zombie gore!!

Well its been a few days since Ive blogged because I have been very busy working on Bong and building a fence at the same time. I know the fence has nothing to do with Bong but it gave me a nice break from it. Anyways now that I have the edit locked and I know exactly where everything should be I am going to finally bang out a few pick up shots that I always wanted to get but did not have the time for. Im talking about some extra special added gore such as heads being crushed, guts being torn out, eyes being gouged…you know the usual good stuff. I have a micro crew of loyal friends coming by today a year and a half later to pick up where we left off with some really cool gags. Mike Fields is bringing the magic once more to help wrap up the final shots. I will post the pictures after Im done editing them into the sequences I have waiting!

Its nice to get a boost during post

Well I have been working crazy hours on the movie as promised and the results are showing. Im incredibly happy with the sequences which I have created so far and am now beginning to see the impact its starting to have for BOTD fans all over the world. It seems every day a few more web sites are catching wind of this film and are promoting it on their web sites. Its a good feeling when people like your stuff! I’m going to be releasing another short video movie which will show the process as its being made. I hope it will shed some light as to why post is taking over one year and how its being done by just me and my MAC and a lot of time! Here are a few new links to Bong from all over the world as more people are beginning to hear about it.

One week report for Bong Of The Dead!

Well, I have been pounding away on the edits composites and scores for Bong of The Dead for this whole week solid! There were a few interruptions but all in all it was a very productive week. I am now getting closer to finishing the third and final edit ( For Now) and then I will concentrate on the composites one at a time and bag them as they get done.

Its ugly outside so Im glad to be inside editing:)

Well Ive been at it now for 4 days solid and am very happy to report that I have been able to get a nice chunk of final editing done on Bong. There is a lot more to do in a short amount of time but time is on my side so I am very confident that I can reach my deadline. Now if I could only deal with the distractions of being called every five minutes by my wonderful wife who desperately wants me to help her undecorate!
