We really should have made Cool Runnings

The feature is almost done. I know I've said that before but this time I could really just say the feature is done. Because it is. I'm editing the Curiosity Entertainment animation now, and I have to change the credits again, but that's about it. The actual film is done with a few level complications on one scene, which I am prepared to take care of tonight.

So tomorrow the film that I've been working on for 3+ years will be done. I can't express how awesome that is. I was so close last night (I couldn't do the animation because I only have after effects at work, and the same with the credits and illustrator) and I was so jacked that I couldn't go to sleep so I ended up playing video games and watching old movies. I got maybe an hour of sleep.

There still is stuff to do, though. The commentary for one thing, but it's all recorded so I should be able to knock that out in an afternoon. The gag reels are going to take longer, though- I have to sift back through 17 hours of footage. Then I have to edit it. I'm afraid that if I add any more media to this project that Final Cut will shut and just refuse to open. Anyway when those are done I still have to animate the menu, probably the hardest part since I suck at animation and this is really tough stuff. I'll see if I can't get David to help me but it's still gunna be no walk in the park. Not to mention the cover art. Thankfully I've already designed it, but I have to touch it up and write a summary for the back.

And of course as I was typing this I forgot what I was doing and finished the animation. So one thing down. 8 to go.
