The film has been wrapped up and sent off via WeTransfer. I actually spent most of today reworking a number of shots that had minor glitches. The final render was again a head ache to set up but I managed to juggle all the right settings eventually. Rendering the film was without a doubt the most stressful aspect of producing the film although Premiere Pro crashing and erasing all the past saved versions of the film was also a contender.
I actually went back to some of the earliest shots in the film today since I learned what settings worked best over the course of adjusting over 200 shots. I suspect I will hold off sharing the film until the free world Premiere at the Orlando International Fringe Festival. That screening will be on May 19, 2023 at 6pm at the Shakes outdoor courtyard.
The challenge over the next week will be figuring out how to promote the film and then how to distribute it. My primary goal is to get as many eyeballs to see the film as possible. I have never shared video on social media before but it looks like I will need to learn how. It will also reside in the animation portfolio section on this site after May 19th and I am sure to post it on YouTube as well.
