the last few months have flown by, and i’m excited to report that the edit is nearly complete and our composer, paul, has begun working on the score.
so how do you know when the edit is done?
in april we hosted an invited screening of the rough cut for 25 friends at technicolor in new york. afterwards i had everyone write down comments and critiques, and the feedback was incredibly encouraging. everyone understood the story and the character relationships. the few issues that came up were consistent across the board, so we knew what to fix. and no one fell asleep.
i was also fortunate enough to have my sisters in attendance, and they both cried, which i took to be a good sign.
it will be fun to shift gears from cutting the scenes together to creating the music that will enhance each moment. from miky to paul. sweaters to t-shirts. jeans to shorts. each season, each month bringing us closer to the finish line…
