Notes after a long absence



Six months down, nothing to show for it. I took a (better than) minimum wage job, which drained me physically and mentally. As I am no longer working (which won't last for long), I am finally picking up the debris of that time.

Well, reality set in. I cannot edit audio at all and as for video, I'm no better than your average high schooler syncing Linkin Park to Vampire Hunter D. Maybe it can be pulled off. I realized that I can't do this alone and considering my locale, I know no editors or sound mixers. I have little or no connections to the filmmaking community, adding insult to injury.

But with time misspent, mistakes adding up like debt, I'm hoping to have The Drift finished by the end of the summer, with work starting now. It begs for completion. I need to finish this damn film before it's too late.

So, I suppose this is an open ended question for the few who may frequent this blog. Do you have people who work in sound who could help? I would like every avenue paved to make the best film possible.
