"So what does a magical explosion look like?"

I've found myself asking that question over and over, since principal photography has wrapped on Gamer Chick season 1. I'm assembling rough cuts of all the episodes myself, preparing all the production audio, and also trying to turn over effects shots at the same time.

Most of the shots are fairly basic (and were designed to be such), but there are a couple that will need some extensive roto work and some fairly advanced (for my skill set) particle work. I'm not worried about the rotoscoping, since it's straightforward. I'm trying to avoid having to teach myself brand new concepts for this project, since the schedule is tight and I'm flying solo, more or less. I might try to shop out some extractions and roto work for screen credit, if anyone's interested...

And I also need a bit of matte painting work, too. I'm willing and able to do it, but it all starts to look like a lot when I see the list growing before my eyes. I'll post whatever I can as it becomes available. That's the perk of being the director, too - I get to decide what can be a "sneak preview." :)

Slowly I turn(over)...

I haven't had time to work on any of my own shots lately, seeing as how I've been in a fight with my SW:TF assignment, and I've also been called back to my day job.

Those long workin' nights have been put on hold, so I finish whatever I can between getting home and collapsing in a heap for the night.

On the plus side, I believe I've found the proper outlet for the new web series I'm directing. More on that soon.
