Luke Pietnik - The Belated Update

Brilliant! I'm glad Verity's managed to post something now. Better late than never. I just changed the title so it had her name in it (I hope you don't mind, pet). I should probably mention the little meeting we had on Thursday. I met Will and Max outside the hubs to discover that the cafe was closed. The girls couldn't make it, so we sat inside the foyer area to discuss the few things that we'd been pondering over the last couple of weeks.

The soundtrack is somehwat of a dilemma. I favour going in the more creative direction and composing our own music, or failing that, blending music that exists within the public domain to create an ethereal, ambient sound, not sissimilar to Brian Eno, the music of who Max is keen to imploy. He also expressed interest in using pop and sombre rock songs to create a sense of uneasy menace. Will, Max and I discussed it at length but still remain undecided. We are sure of one thing, however: there does need to be a soundtrack, ambient or otherwise, to add to the atmosphere we intend to create. We'll think of something.

Also on the agenda was the schedule for shooting during our first week back (20th April onwards). We are hoping to utilise our time and edit what footage we have already whilst the rest is being shot. We'll have two weeks in total to have the project signed, sealed and delivered, so it's important that we maximise our time, it's the most abundant and precious resource to us at the moment. We've got to make sure that after we've shot the final day's scenes, we have time in the week to get our actors in to do voice-overs.

The fact that we've got to do so much in such a short space of time means that Will and I will probably be spending a couple of long evenings in the edit suite. I'm sure we can handle it, can't we Will? That's all until next time...
