High Strung

Well, I submitted High Strung to The Sundance Film Festival yesterday. Now I have 79 days to brace myself for rejection, which won’t be hard at all. Speaking of counting down days I have 8 days left in the studio that I’m working in. The “Higher Ups” have finally come to their senses and realized their faults of letting me use their facilities and are finally kicking me out. With my track record I’m pretty sure they’ll send some goons to take me out in the woods behind Evergreen to break my kneecaps so there’s no way I can crawl back to try use continue to use the studio. Anyways, lots to do in little time, this is nothing new though. The audio team has been brought back together and are ready to finish up the sound design. I should have the picture done by the end of this month, the audio should be done by the end of October, and compression will be done in the beginning of November. High Strung actually going to be finish? Who would have thunk it?

On a more interesting note a good friend, Sean Parker, is submitting his third feature length film, Coup de Théâtre, to Sundance. I was able to see a rough cut of it and it was a most enjoyable film full of heart and charm. This guy blows me away with everything he does. He’s only got a couple days left to tighten up the cut before he overnights it to Sundance. I wish him the best of luck and can’t wait to see the finished piece. By the way he’s only 22 and wrote, shot, and is almost through the majority of post in a little more than a year while I’ve been working on the same 13 minute short for two and a half years…

Here’s a link to his site with some info on the film and a trailer for it as well:
