(and now to everybody, I keep doing this wrong) Hey Jakob.
I think it’s so super great you’re doing this! Great production value in your material. Of course I have anecdotical remarks about the edit and script but I don’t know if the thread would work for that. So I added a section to the bottom of the etherpad. I didn’t drop by yet to say how much I enjoyed LGM yet. I really did. To the extent that it’s hard to express. Thanks, everybody! I will only have smart things to say about it until the experience is digested somewhat in my system. all the best, Eric Op 6 jun 2010, om 00:56 heeft Jake het volgende geschreven: > Hey again, > > I worked all day today to finish the intro. > > > The intro is around 20% of the lenght of the final film. > > This is still just preview, as I didn't add Peter's voice-over yet.
