Pretty much spent the entire day editing my short film today. Look at all these LAYERS.

"Psssssh, that's not that many, stop exaggerating, Michael." |
Oh really now? See those brown layers? Those are pre-compositions. Basically, I use them like folders to keep even MORE layers organized.
Here's the blood splat pre-comp.

"...Alright, that's a little big, but still, no big deal Michael." |
And here's the damn gunshot pre-comp.

"IT'S LIKE A BLOOMIN' ONION" |
Yesterday, I finished timing/positioning all of the gunshots. Today, I finished all of the rotoscopes I need. And tomorrow, I have to focus on environmental glows that'll be cast by gunshots. Making pretty solid progress on this thing, I'll say.
...Except this is just the intro sequence. I'm barely A THIRD OF THE WAY THROUGH THE MOVIE.

"Come on, step it up!" -Ivan (via ign.com) |
But seriously, I'm probably gonna have to step it up if I want to finish this before I leave for the Philippines. Two weeks, seven minutes of editing plus a two minute intro? No problem. Right?

Oh, and today, for the first time ever, I found out what a silverfish looks like. Saw this weird looking insect crawling on one of my cabinets, promptly murdered it, then looked up what the hell the thing was on the Internet. Literally, up until today, I thought silverfish were only mobs in Minecraft, I never thought they'd actually be real.

Yeah, not quite as cute as I thought they'd be. |
Note to self: Vacuum and deep-clean room tomorrow to ensure that I never have to see these things again.
RFotD: The scientific name for silverfish is "lepisma saccharina." Their name, "saccharina" derives from the fact that they tend to eat carbohydrates, notably sugars and starches.
SGAT: Edited a BUNCH of my short film.
