Little progress

Got the fight cut, decided to grapple this thing and force edit as much as possible rather than sit here and jack off or just read the endless circular meaningless politics crap on twitter... This world is becoming farcical isn't it....

Wasn't fun or nothing...

But I'm spent, I want to edit more, tighten it, but I can't, my reserves are tapped out. Don't want to think about it right now....

I didn't shoot enough footage so I've been struggling with what editors must dread, trying to cut around stuff you don't have... Lucas talked about doing this for star wars. He basically shrugged and said if it wasn't shot on the day, just have to fix it in editing, now I understand why he liked green screen so much. It's easier to get shots that you need but never shot at the time etc...

It's not the end of the scene, it's just that during the battle, every shot of static is wide far stuff. I didn't do not one close up to kinda break up things... so it's a lost cause gonna have to craft the scene as is and make it work within the limits.

But whatever, most important thing is to get over this scene and figure out how I'm going to do the static finds his garbage pail lid bit that comes directly after. Oy, gotta organize the files, get a rough cut done of that some point, but eh, we're doing good. I'm making progress and I want to make a little tiny smidge every day regardless of whether I'm into it or not.

You gotta look fear in the face and tell it to go to hell at times, eh....
