Hi all,
It's going to be a case of from the lab to the airport! "The Reef" will be ready tomorrow morning after months of post-production.
I am on a plane at 2pm to head to the Cannes Film Festival where "The Reef" will have its first ever public screening - what a ride!
Fingers crossed the world still has an appetite for shark movies. Stay tuned!
All the best
Andrew
So we've wrapped principal photography and editing on The Reef has finally commenced!
It's SO good to be inside - not having to worry about what the weather is doing, not having to be in the water 10 hours a day, not having to re-arrange schedules everyday because of the weather conditions...and best of all - seeing the film come alive.
Editing is such a fascinating process. You sit through a long dreary compile of footage thinking "oh my god what rubbish!", but then you start to sculpt, play with the timing, rhythms, emotions, sound and suddenly that dull inert object on the screen starts to reveal itself as a true gem!
I'm also starting to get fully absorbed in the sound - the other great dimension of a thriller.
The post production process is a long road - there's so much work to do to complete the film so stay tuned for more updates.
Cheers,
Andrew
