Sunset Superman

Filming Sunday went very well; despite the 27 degree temperatures and wind chill, we got some good stuff in the can. In addition to recreating the basic sequence from seven different angles–replacing prior footage discarded due to underexposure–the director set concerns for his safety aside and perched himself inside the fury. It took some adjustments but was worth the extra consideration for his positioning; he captured some truly unique shots.

After nailing the shots, we did some unplanned runs in the midst of a Project Adventure type rope climbing course. The spontaneous bits may or may not be in the final version. Regardless, they were fun filming.

The director plans a December 2 drop date. Near perfect timing, because the artist finished up the graphic yesterday morning. Now the graphic can be integrated into the multimedia piece, where it will provide additional context. Initially I had planned the graphic would serve another purpose, but there’s value in “recycling”. Chalk it to a happy accident.

Slowly the legs of the marketing plan are gelling into a more coherent package. There’s still two big pieces left, but I have complete control over the first deliverable, and a lot of influence over the second. Which means after next week, pending tweaks to the film, effectively I am the bottleneck to the project. Obstacles that arise are solely mine to resolve.

Even the ones I create.
