Better Progress

Yesterday I felt like I did a good job of getting stuff done. Technically I only recorded one shot, but it was a hard shot (like most of the action shots), and I also added a ton of sound effects to the action sequence. Before that it was pretty silent. I also solved my opening text troubles. Now the very beginning of the film is much more awesome.

The Axis Mundi discussion thread at Atari Forums has been pretty successful. I decided to post an update there today. In it I mentioned that I was 3 Minutes and 33 second of the way through the film. Of course, I still haven't made music for all of the 3:33, and I need to do some tweaking to make the story more understandable, but it is getting closer to being 100% polished.

Sniff....

Recently I have had a cold, and today is my first day being healthy enough to work again. I have been able to make some music, although I don't think it is all that great, so I will probably will not use it. I don't know why, but this project is going extremely slow. It is really starting to get on my nerves, because at the rate that I am going, it will take a miracle for me to finish.

Oh, and to follow up the post about the Atari forums: they aren't closed, they are just re-organised. Now all of the old threads are archives, and there is a new forum that looks almost exactly like the other one. I have decided to post an Axis Mundi discussion thread there. It is a good thing that I didn't do so before everything changed, or else I would have had to start it all over again!

Axis Mundi discussion thread

I have started a production thread for The Battle for Axis Mundi over at the LG Machinima community. I may also post one over at the Atari forums. For now, here is a link to the LG Machinima thread:

I hope that I am not releasing this info too early. I have never really done one of these threads, so I hope that it won't be a disaster.
