Success!!

I managed to solve the technical issues I was dealing with before.  I am nearly ready to unleash  the ruff cut.  The problems I have been figuring out were mainly with lighting....primarily under-lighting.  It's kind of sad because in a past-career I did lighting and technical training at the Firehall Theatre with one of the best lighting designer's in the city.  It is different trying to light for a camera though and with a greenscreen in the background...especially when the lighting options I have are limited.  On my ever-growing wishlist is a soft-lighting kit.

One thing a photographer friend of mine told me is that over-lighting is better than under-lighting.  It's easier to decrease the exposure and brightness post-production than it is to boost it.  Simple.

Working on some sort of artists statement for this piece.  Will drop that next week.

In other news on October 7th I will be leaving for Regina, Saskatchewan for a 2 week residency with the Sakwewewak Collective.  I will be making new work, doing some workshops, and a small exhibition/performance at the end.
