Progress Notes
1. Concrete Progress- Last weekend my capstone partner went to Munster Indiana to get more footage of the Three Floyd's brewery. I had the weekend off but was not notified of his trip up there until he was already there. So, we have more footage, B-Roll, of that brewery, but NO INTERVIEWS.
We have 2 trailers in production right now. We are both producing one each and both will be different. Mine is focusing more on the public enjoyment of beer at festivals we have shot. Joe's, I believe, will be focused more around the brewery experience.
2. Mentor Contact- Joe and I see our mentor once a week in another class and try to spend a few minutes after class discussing our progress and new ideas with her. She keeps our heads out of the clouds and gives us a reality check when we need it.
3. Timeline Changes- Joe came up with the idea of adding a stop-motion scene in which we show the process of beer making with Legos last week. At this point in the project I think it would be a bad idea to add it, especially since we don't have enough interviews with real brewers yet.
4.Need To Complete- We need more interviews with brewers, we need to complete the stop-motion title sequence, which should take us 2 days max (I know this because we just did one for another project), and I need to get an idea of how this thing is going to feel so I can write the score for it. Also having the promos done would be a plus.
So,
a. Interviews
b. Title sequence
c. Start writing the score
d. Promos
5.Changes- The one significant change would have to be the stop-motion Lego sequence. As I wrote this I sent Joe an email outlining my concerns with the timeline of this project and making suggestions as to what we can do to speed up production.
