Wow, a lot has happened since my last post. I recently changed some of the movies I want to make and some of the movies that I have made. The first movie that I changed is the Halo 2 movie that I wanted to make. I changed it and went straight into a mini three part series titled Colony. A break off from my sims 2 movie The Colony. This little series is going on as a podcast and episode 1 has been released on sims99.com but hasn't gone up as a podcast yet for some reason... It takes iTunes a long time to accept a pocast so I'm just going to wait. In the mean time I froze production on episode 2 of Colony so I won't get too far ahead of myself. I don't want to loose sight of what I want to do with the series so I'm going to wait with it until I can get it into a podcast. Second I just finished my new sims 2 movie titled Control. I started it straight after posting a remake of my 2006 Awakening movie and got to work! It took hours upon hours just to put the effects in let alone film it. It was such tedious work and at time it became very annoying. When I began production for it I didn't know if it should have a story or where I really wanted to go with it but I soon realized that I did want a story and I wanted the visuals to be amazing and something that never has been done before.
Total it took me a month to film, edit, and get some early feedback on the movie. It took me about 40 hours in editing and filming. I pulled a couple all nighters or half all nighters but it got done. While I was waiting for feedback I started thinking about my next movie. Of course this one is not going to be crazy and cartoony looking but I want it to look visually stunning. I'm not going to say anything about the story or the plans I have for it but I will say, it's going to take a very long time to make. The effects are much more tedious and annoying to film and edit but in the end it's going to look beautiful. I've began testing shots and testing my editing skills to see if I can pull it off. I can. Ever since my first big hit movie Astral I've been wanting to create a movie similar to stunning visuals and amazing story line. I'm still developing the plot but its coming along nicely and I know it'll be more developed when I start production.
I have some other big plans that people are going to be excited about and I've been working on the (very funny) script for it. That's all I can say about that right now. It's going to be months before anything happens more about it so. Next time I'll tell you more about the developing story of my new "pet project."
