This will be the final update before the closed premiere in Mexico during Hivefest.
The film is finished as it stands now. We had a few people rewatch it a few times and we cut some stuff that affected the flow of the film. We expanded some things that helped clarify the story. Final touches matter.
4 days ago the film went in for color correction and sound design.
We should be getting it back in a few days.
What remains now is just beautifying the animation with some VFX, adding movement, some zooms here and there. Our editor will be playing with that a bit in the coming days.
It has been a long road to get to this point and I can say it was a fulfilling experience. We are really excited to show it finally on the big screen.
The reaction of Hivers is important but its what comes after that will make this film worthwhile or not.
Everyone is a critic, everyone has their own idea in their head what this should be about, what it should look like but what will be measure of success is what comes after.
Once I return from Mexico, that is where I will be putting my effort towards. Most of you can imagine what that entails.
In essence we are opening a door for us towards a new industry and I hope to use the chance we are given to the best of my ability.
