So here I am, two days after SpexArn was shown on Saturday evening to an audience totalling over 700 people! The reception of both the film and the comedy show was amazing – loads of people came up and told me that they thought the film was really quite good, which is always absolutely awesome to hear, thanks everyone! =D
Work now continues on the DVD and Blu-Ray release of SpexArn, which should be available sometime mid-January on a built-to-order basis, meaning the discs are ordered and then created (this to minimize any excessive cost in printing up a large stock of DVDs). We have loads of fun behind-the-scenes material as well as a whole lot of deleted and extended scenes, and it’s going to be a blast to put it all together! Will post some more pictures from the making-of that as well as the spex comedy show very soon.
But before work starts on that, I have some pretty exciting stuff I will be working on tomorrow morning. Will head on over to S:t Petri high school to shoot a seminar with one of the Nobel prize winners in chemistry for the school and also some science groups here in Sweden who are going to use it for publicity and archiving purposes. It’s my biggest job in terms of scale and importance so far, which is a bit nerve-racking but hopefully I’ll be able to pull myself together til’ tomorrow. Going to go at it in a quite extreme manner as I’ll be shooting it live with 3 cameras – the main angle will be shot using the Redrock M2e kit, and I will have a borrowed XL1s as well as an XL2 for audience reactions as well as just back-up footage in case anything goes horribly wrong. But I’m off to bed now to rest up and be alert to tomorrow’s very exciting shoot. Wish me luck!
Speak more soon and take care everyone!
