168 project update!

Monday - The day the editing starts!
8am Jimi Lund, the editor starts work on putting the film together and by 8pm we are able to have a look at the material. In the meantime Jackie and Luke have taken the HD (hard drive – remember we are using the Red Camera – the digital film camera) to the online editor in Barnsley (South Yorkshire) and then crossed West Yorkshire back into Skipton (North Yorkshire) to visit Dave Aston, the Sound Designer before heading to East Yorkshire to deliver paperwork to the film’s writer Nigel Forde. All four parts of the Great State of Yorkshire! The finished review of the edit was completed at 1am! Jimi Lund and Paul Burbridge arranged to meet at 9am the next morning.

Tuesday – Paul and Jimi worked on the editing, Jackie and Jonathan worked on sound and Luke arranged for one of the actors to record some more lines before heading to Bristol to meet the other 168 Project team.

Wednesday – End of paperwork in sight! Luke has seen a rough cut of the Bristol team’s film and come back to York.

Thursday – Back on the tour of Yorkshire! So far – Skipton – the sound has been finished overnight and now he’s off to Barnsley where the film has been edited and they are doing a ‘grade’ (where the sound, colour and pictures are checked) and the credits are put onto the film. There are a few issues with the edit but hopefully these can be resolved quickly as it takes several hours to render the final film before it can head off to LA. The files are so large it could be the early hours before it is all finished.

We’ll update you again later today......
