6-8 seconds a week-

Hey guys!

sorry for not posting for a few weeks....I have been crawling back up on that horse..........I kept getting bucked off with all kinds of Stuff....
Crunch time at work.....Tiredness- Failed shots-Freelance job....jeeez all kinds of stuff...

...but Now I finally feel back at full gallop.....Yeeee haawwww.....

.....I just had a really great last week....pulled in 3 good shots and 12+ seconds of NEW footage.

Here is a cut in shot from the Fight scene....
Shel also has the ENTIRE film now in Edit and its quite exciting to be able to watch it from start to finish...... Its a MOVIE guys.....soooooo coooooool!!!

It's been kinda hard to get back into the groove of staying up so late and doing a full life ontop....

lots of little things have come up and maybe a little of my own personal SOFTNESS...in not being as Disciplined as I usually am....... BUT the HIGH of seeing the footage is really kicking in....and we are really weaving things together and seriously improving the film......I spent the last few weeks doing LINKup shots

and shel has been doing some really FUN interesting editing that has been so inspiring to watch happen.

So.....I have set a good goal for myself of getting between 6-8 seconds a week..........till We hit the next Milestone....

.........the {DEEPSPACE DOGFIGHT} sequence....
This I think is reachable goal if I keep the puppets in shape and my Weeks planned out.....

more to come.....soon.

Hey guys,
Great work, really enjoyed how smooth the fight scene was and with the humour of hurting his foot, look forward to seeing more!

Look at Flea just take that beating. He's a hard man... err... Flea! Stupendous shot, Justin. It's great to hear you're motoring forward.

And a 'deep-space dogfight', you say? Excellent! Though I think Dober has an unfair advantage ;)

Rich Johnson said...

Deeeeep Spaaace. Pumped to see those spaceships fly around. Nice shot!

Jeff Lafferty said...

Wow, I forgot how much I loved frank McCarthy's work till I saw this piece you posted here. Now I've got to look around and see if hes still painting.

Love your work! Is it weird that I just saw a photo of you on Paranorman's Instagram feed and I recognized you? haha At first it seemed creepy but then I realized it was most likely those distinctive tattoos on your head that gave it away.
It still feels creepy but thought I'd let you know anyways! It was a great shot!

Everyone has those times when it's hard to go on full speed even if it's something you love. You got this!

Alonso said...

course you did just crunch at Laika, and now you're crunching in your game job, usually people take a vacation after that, not diving back into staying up all night to work. You've earned some time to recharge :) you are unstoppable

erica said...

Awesome stuff Justin! You continue to inspire me with all the work you do on and off the clock. You say you've been "soft" on your discipline but you're still being productive, even if it's not at the speedy pace you're used to. I gotta crack down on my own stuff!
