The last few weeks I’ve been re-loading the footage for All God’s Children onto the Mac using FCP. We had originally cut the film on Avid on a PC. Then we lost the hard drive with all of the media before finalizing the cut, which meant we had to work off an old master, with titles locked into place and all AfterEffects files suffering from degradation. This weekend I had to realize that we also have lost a lot of the original photos. So now I’ll have to re-scan and re-touch up and then re-animate the photos. Stalling right now while deciding if this is what I should be doing or if we can live with the artifacting in some of the photos. Hm…
The rest of my All God’s Children time is taken up by getting screenings organized for late summer/fall.
