Enjoy!!
---------------
This film was basically a shake-down for two new pieces of software I got from Serious Magic.
The first, DV Rack, is a really good filming tool. You should check out their site for all the details but I found it particularly handy for setting up my shots - and - capturing camera input directly to my laptop's hard drive, saving the time consuming step of having to capture footage.
The second piece of software, Ultra, was used for the greeen screen effects. It's a superb chroma-key package and includes a variety of "virtual sets." I expect to use this a lot more in future productions!
And here's a quick note... I spelled someone's name wrong in the credits so let me re-post them here:
Baxter - Chuck Lafond
Collins - Michael Legge
Dr. Olin - Diane Mela Souvanna
Mother - Roseli Weiss (that's Roseli and not Rosali) Sorry.
Yes, I provided MAX's voice. I wrote, directed, and edited the whole thing too - couldn't find anyone local to work with unfortunately. But it was a great learning experience!
