It’s been a while, since late August last year actually, since production of my latest film began, and after shooting it in a week and doing post work on it for about 7 weeks the film premiered early December during the Petri spex show in Malmö. The whole show was shot multi-cam style with 3 cameras (thanks Johannes and Erik for the help!) and edited during the christmas break. Also worked on a very big bunch of special features for the film, namely a Behind-The-Scenes short, two DVD and Blu-Ray exclusive short films, ten minutes (!) of outtakes and loads of more stuff. Still have some menu work and debugging to do on the Blu-Ray version of the film, but the DVD is all done and ready for the duplication process, which means the film will be available for sale locally in about two weeks tops I’d say. It was incredibly relaxing albeit a bit weird to finish the film, as it is every time. This also means I have a better estimate on when the SpexArn internet release date will be, and for now an approximate release window is

LATE MARCH, 2010 (subject to change!)

As mentioned, this obviously depends heavily on the DVD sales but as a majority of people buy the DVD and Blu-Ray for the special features it shouldn’t be that big of a deal to release the film to the internet.

But one more thing! I’ve been writing on my next film project, set to go into production this spring, for a while now and it’s rapidly approaching 20 pages. Having some meetings with friends next week to brainstorm the script a bit - even though most of the story is pretty much thought out. But now that SpexArn is finished, I thought I’d head straight into announcing titles and again posting loads of stuff concerning the film’s production. It’s a pretty big departure from what I’ve done before, making it an even bigger challenge, but one that will be fun to try and figure out.

Check back THIS MONDAY (the 15th) for the first poster and the title for the film. I can’t wait to tell you all about it!

Take very good care everyone and happy valentine’s day tomorrow!

P.S. As I mentioned in my last post, some films are being upgraded to 1080p! Cell, for example, is now available in really high quality so go check out the film from 2006 right away. And yes, that makes me feel pretty old.
