Static trailer progress

Well I am at an interesting stage now with the trailer. I might have bitten off more than I can chew but we will complete this shit at some fucking point... and it'll be beast. I goddamn swear. I mean, I always was into good shit, as a kid. Good art cartoons, movies, so I'm not thinking I should create something less than what I grew up on. So If my stuff doesn't measure up to the shit I grew up on, I'd personally be dissappointed with it in the end.

Just finished doing another battle scene between static and some bang baby, but this time he's got a light saber. I just wanted at some point to put my lightsaber in the video and this is going to be it. And it was tough to figure out how to shoot it and put myself inside the video with the villain and ultimately I"m overall satisfied with it, but there is some wonky fx work that I'll just have to live with. Now I see why Lucas is never satisfied with Star Wars. When you make this shit and it has little errors in it, it's like you lose your mind wanting to get it perfect. But overall it looks fucking good and as if I was really shooting it with 2 people instead of being a split frame back to the future sort of thing. You'll see. It's one of the most elaborate fx shots that I've done because it has so many elements to it that interact with each other. Came out better than I expected really and it just looks cool.

Need to shoot one shot of  a close up of the villain to finish it off because it was too dark really to see my face and the make up I had on...

Then that's all she wrote. One last shot to get really and it's going to be the epic finale of the trailer, and then it's editing time.
