Posted: 25th August 2008 by Travis Thomsen in 1-800-Tech-Support

On Sunday we had the first read through with the full cast present. Everything went very well. As usual I was running behind. I had to do some computer work before heading over which is what set me behind. I have a friend who is a dentist and I occasionally help him out. Yesterday I [...]

Hawaii day 1: Travel

Posted: 14th August 2008 by Travis Thomsen in Complete Unrelated

Ungh travel. It was a long as flight 8HRs and a 5 hour time change. I don’t know how my mother did it when she was a flight attendant. If you going to travel on a really long flight I highly suggest booking First Class. Coach sucks, it’s like a damn cattle car. No room [...]

Posted: 10th August 2008 by Travis Thomsen in Another random 48Hr project

Seriously WTF!? Honestly with the way this weekend has been going it’s the icing on the cake. There were a few thing here that need to be cleaned up but over all and it looks fantastic. Matthew and I are both disappointed we couldn’t get an export. Erik was kind enough to let us turn [...]

Posted: 10th August 2008 by Travis Thomsen in Another random 48Hr project

I woke up about 7:30 and I didn’t want to get out of bed. I didn’t get all the color correction done like I wanted but I got in the areas that count. I met up with Matthew at Goen around 9:30 to start editing. So far so good I guess. I wish we got [...]
