working on the middle of the movie... holy shit is it tough.
Want to just say screw it... makes ya wonder how people do this for a living...
I couldn't do this full time, it's like torture.
Can't find footage you thought you shot... nothing syncs up, the music is tough to find that fits the scenes, everything's poorly shot, no continuity to anything. Yes, lesson learned, actually kinda shoot to a script, actually write a script, that might have been a good idea.
I didn't because I know what I want to do, but throughout the shoot I got confused about what happens when and figured whatever. So yeah, I mean I started this project 5 years ago. Of course stuff I shot back then doesn't fit with more recent stuff.
I don't know if there's truly a good solid flick inside of what I shot... it's gonna be fun and interesting that's all I can promise.
Never did this shit before so it's tough to get it down.
the scenes I did yesterday I just wanted to be ok, nothing fancy smancy or great, but due to blind luck I some how turned them into almost professionally done hollywood level stuff. So that was surprising.
My goal though isn't to make this thing like all glitzy and nice and hollywood, it's gonna be a fan film low budget piece of clunky junk that's fun and sparks some interest in a hollywood version of static some day.
Some dude on facebook as I mentioned is making a pro level static film so I'm not the only one hoping it gets done some day. I know been crying about lack of static forever. Which is why I'm doing this. It's my hope that they do make one and it's happening, us black guys in the world are kinda just making it ourselves, might as well, eh....
Static is my homie, man. I mean not only because he's black and quick witted like spidey. That's superficial. The thing that I liked about him was that he's so damn badass and fights for the people because he's one of them. You don't see topics of racism, black gang war, life in the projects, stuff I've seen all my life in standard comics... so yeah, finally seeing reality that I know in comic form was huge for me. I mean it's just I liked that static would care about making life better in ghettos and go after criminals in the places superman wouldn't show up... he's probably the most grounded down to earth hero of all and that's why people like him. He's not fighting aliens and shit, he's fighting some asshole causing trouble in his community, something spidey would be too busy to do... so that's why he's interesting, he tackles faaaar more than they do and carries a larger burden on his shoulders. Hell often times as the series went on, he'd actually be fighting people he knew at school, that's how small and personal his battles were. Later in the series though he ended up just as epic scoped as supes and batman which kinda defeated the purpose of the character, a shame...
Well there you have it my garbled nonsense of the night...
