Approaching the End Of Production


First off, I can't believe it's already mid-November. Second, I can't believe we're almost done filming Beauty Day! You -- as in the two of you reading this -- may have noticed a lack of updates around here. Well, if it's not sheer laziness that keeps me from posting it's the fact that I've been trying to spend all my 'working' hours shooting or editing the film. As some of you may know, we're now working with Primitive Entertainment out of Toronto, so I've also been keeping busy cutting together promo videos and writing a synopsis for potential broadcasters/distributors. I must say that I'm very excited at the potential of this project and I am extremely confident in the film itself. This thing is going to be really fun to watch. What more could I ask for?

I'm actually pretty shocked at how smoothly the shoot has gone. No real problems along the way (outside of Ralph's hernia and Roman's emergency wisdom tooth removal) and the footage has all turned out great. It's been really fun documenting Ralph's 20th Birthday Special of the Cap'n Video Show. He and his friend Robert Buick have worked together on some really fun skits that should bring back some memories for those of us who watched the original show 15 years ago.

So what do we have left? Well...a final interview with Ralph, some additional b-roll footage and the presentation of the new Cap'n Video show to the local cable station. Outside of that, it will be the odd pick up shot that I might need in the editing stages. Speaking of which, I hope to be editing full time for the next few months starting in December. Should be quite the challenge. Stay tuned for more updates!
