As of yet, I have not had my tech demo for the green screen. This is due to the technician being really busy. With him, I have scheduled in a tech demo for the 7th November in order to gain an understanding of the technique and hopefully carry out some tests. Due to not having a tech demo, my work for this technique has been put back by around 3 weeks. Even though this is frustrating, I plan to incorporate more tests into my shooting dates in order to catch up with myself (Green screen shoot date is scheduled for 12/11/2014). I plan to begin the shoot carrying out numerous tests before filming properly. This (I think) may also help the actor to become comfortable with scene throughout the course of the shoot.
Upon further discussion with Matthew, we have changed the scripts again as we realised we were missing some aspects for both of our projects. Also, we have come to realise that we need two slightly different versions of the script in order to accommodate us both in our projects. Seens though Matthew's work is in production and my main bulk of work is in post-production, we have come to the conclusion that we need separate filming dates with a significant time period between them in order to let us both do our projects. Final shoot dates have yet to be discussed.
I have yet to look over and annotate the new script. I will be doing that within the next few days.
I have had further tech demos with Avid and I am now feeling more confident with the software. I have also began looking at After Effects and looking at how I'm going to use it. I am going to do a second Avid test and a first After Effects test within the next week.
My next steps are to pin down shoot dates/locations; produce more software tests and research further into the techniques.
