NB

Unfortunately our sound logs have been irreversibly ruined by water, and therefore we will be unable to hand these in. We could attempt to fabricate some, but I think it is better to be honest in situations like this.

The End Is Near

Well everything is pretty much finished now, so a big thank you to all of Hot Thrust Productions for a job well done.

The film is looking good, unfortunately we have had to edit out some of the jokes to get it closer to five minutes, but we still have a film to be proud of.

I was planning to put the evolution of our script on the blog, but formatting issues won't allow me to do this properly.

Also, at the bottom of every post it states that it was me (Scott) who posted them, but this isn't true, as everyone accessed the blog through my user details. You can probably tell who wrote what due to the nature of the research, and subsequently who didn't write at all. I did ask everyone multiple times to put their research up on the blog, so no-one has any excuse for not doing so.

Anyway, it is almost over, and I think that this has been a valuable exercise in the film making process, and we have truly made a film to be proud of.

Roll on the post screening party!
