This is a post about my short film. Eleven years ago I decided to do a short like those I used to watch in Italy growing up, called Telefilms. Last year I was watching some of the footage and decided to finish it. This project was shot on film and I got so much support in order to get where I am... one of the reasons why it took me so long to finish it, it's because I started to direct commercials soon after. At this point I have finished the edit and gave the film to three different group in the post production phase. 1) a central post house where I can finish the project and on-line all updates, this is Avenue Digital (post producer: Alex Agoston), the second facility is Modern Video Film where the incredibly talented Todd Botchner (Colorist) works at. Jon Johnson is the VP of Sales there and it has been the instrumental person to make this happen for me. Todd has given the whole movie a bleach bypass look, also known as skip bleach or silver retention look. The third party in the mix here is my brother Bruno, who has been working in sound editing, sound FX, and music scores all his life. He has just finished two movies, the latest Dario Argento and the latest Roberto Benigni project. He is now finishing the first pass on the music and already has completed the sound. We decided to leave the Dial editing and sweetening to the end. I'm extremely excited, the whole film is looking great and can't wait to share it first of all with all those who gave so much to help me shoot it. Thanks also to James Hunter, he was helping with the behind the scene stills, and took various photos of us including the shot of Lisa that I used for the new poster. I'm very pleased with that, great job James!
I will continue to update you with this as I get ahead on the final stage of my film. Ciao V2
