Part XXXXI: Storms

Well I finished my first movie today. I mean 99% finished all I have to do is re-record my script in French which will take 10 minutes done. Trouble is, it took a pound a flesh to get this thing done.
It all started with the music. I have two piece in this movie, one composed by Sean, one taken from the Internet. Now we got this list of music websites where you can listen to demos and then purchase and download the tune. So I browsed a site and found a piece that matched Sean's piece and the mood I was going for. I eagerly downloaded and cut and fixed and perfected and everything. When I went to go put the credits in a figure out how to credit the music I came across disclaimer. The piece I selected was not blanket licensed outside of the United States.

Twenty very angry minutes later I sat back down at my desk. I actually had to take a walk around the church beside the office to blow off some steam.
I found one piece I liked (took about 45 minutes to find) I could surely do it again. And I did.

Twenty minutes later I had a new piece of music, forty minutes later it was thrown into the film and an hour later it was cut the way I want it.

Phew! As the stormclouds brewed outside, they also brewed over my head. This was the kind of motivation where you actually get mad at the project and then it was done.

So all in all, a weird day with a cool result.
