Plan Z
Did I mention PLAN Z is done and public? Well, it is.

I'm back on my feet and at it again. I have been for a bit now but I'm actually making some headway on some things. PLAN Z, for the most part, is fundamentally done. We've had a really great composer working on the soundtrack for it, Steve Lehmann, who provided a high quality version today to drop in to the project.
The music is fantastic. I gave Steve some basic ideas of what I wanted and he pretty much nailed it. PLAN Z is a short comedic zombie piece less than two minutes in length. Frankly, I was a little concerned as to how music was even going to fit in. The piece I was given is so genre typical and serious that it helps to sell the short. It's completely inappropriate in a very awesome way and still makes me laugh every time. I really enjoy how it sits in the short.
When I say fundamentally done that means that I still have a bit of audio layering to do and a little bit of recording. I'm missing a bit of what I'm calling 'zambie mooing', which I hope is pretty obvious what I'm referring to. I've got a couple layers in there already but it's just not quite deep enough yet. I need to record some audio from a couple people to really fill out that sound.
If you were involved in filming and want to record some audio contact me. If you weren't involved in filming and would be okay with an uncredited contribution then, again, contact me. There's room in the mix for everyone.
The video has been settled for quite some time now, including colour correction and tweaking. All that's left, once I have the remaining audio layers down, is to finish out a mix of the audio and render out. Provided I can keep my head on straight, PLAN Z, should be done by this weekend.
