The dailies for Conversation No. 27 came back and it looks GORGEOUS. I got applauded for the lighting work even if I didn't do it single-handedly. But I basked all the glory in. (I can get cocky.) I took it more as recognition for putting much of the work during the production.. All the credit should go to Erik for his excellent DP work. The dailies came back little brighter than he intended because that's what the lab usually do with Full Sail student films--make them brighter so that they can fix it in post. There were approximately one hour of footage, without sound because they haven't been synched to Nagra reels yet. It's gonna be interesting edit. The guys were happy that films look better than we expected. Although some of the shots were not what I had in my mind when I saw the storyboard and the shot descriptions, it came close enough.

Because the production ended just a week ago, everyone had fresh memory of what they have endured and cherished. I wish I could get some of the footage on the DV and edit on my G4 and Final Cut Pro.

My Canon Elura 20MC came today. This is my first camcorder. The thing is so small! I can fit it on my palm and just shoot. I will have great fun with this camera for sure.
