Sundance Away

It has been done. At 10:44:52 our submission of Bounty to the 2008 Sundance Film Festival was placed in the mail. It should be received as early as tomorrow. I originally thought that the submission office was going to be in Park City, Utah but luck for us it is only in Beverly Hills, CA. That makes the postage and stress of it getting there on time considerable less.

We submitted a rough cut with a temp sound mix, no sound effects/editing, no folly, no ADR, no Color Correction and no wires painted out yet. Hopefully the story and music will be good enough for them and we will make it into the festival. Apparently they only accept 16 feature films to be eligible for awards and receive roughly 7200 submissions (now that could be documentary features, narrative features, narrative short films, documentary short films, international or domestic), but nonetheless we have a long way to go. We should know if we have been accepted by sometime in December.

Until then, we will be working on all that was mentioned above.

stay tuned...

Sundance Push

In the absence from the journal a lot has been developing with Bounty. The score is complete and we are just now working on getting all the sound fixed. Next week we are going to be sending in a rough cut of the film for our Sundance submission. If we are accepted into the festival it will be screening in Park City, Utah in January. The deadline is September 28th so we have lots to do before the film is mailed off.

In the near future the Bounty webpage will be redone and we will be posting a new trailer and some behind the scenes footage. This will be a busy week.

Stay tuned, for very soon we will have lots to share.
