Digging Holes and Fixing Plotholes

 Hello! It's been.. a very long day today, for me at least. I had two goals I wanted to get done today: rewrite the script in the light of character changes, and to further develop the key art for the film.

    First things first- the script was my biggest worry, since it took me weeks to write the first draft, and rewriting the entire script to fit with new characters felt like a daunting task (especially with such little time before actually filming the movie). So I sat myself down, chugged some coffee, put on some nice music, and got to work. Once again, I'm avoiding posting script screenshots in order to avoid spoiling my presumably eager audience, so I apologize for the lack of visual proof of my work today. I promise it wouldn't be very interesting. If I did use a picture for the scriptwriting process, it would probably look like the image above.

In more exciting news, I took some pictures outside today! While you may have thought that my key art would simply be the the result of this blog post's labors, it was merely step one of the master plan. For the final image, I wanted to have this image displayed on the dilapidated computer as it sat in a grave (or a simple unceremonious hole in the ground). So I grabbed my buddy Sebi (who generously supplied some shovels), drove over to [[UNDISCLOSED LOCATION]], and started digging away, laboring to make a tiny little hole large enough to place a computer into (the story of acquiring a prop computer will be told on a later blog post)

Now, while this isn't the MOST visually impressive, it was mostly just to have a proof of concept / practice for the real shoot, which I intend on doing on Monday. Why didn't I do this today, officially? Well, we went out pretty late, so there was only about an hour of sunlight till it got too dark to take nice pictures. Also, the computer I'm working with has a busted battery, meaning it can't work unless its plugged into an outlet, and there aren't many outlets in random forests. Luckily, I plan on fixing the computer's battery over the weekend, so I can properly display the key art, as well as have more time to dig a deeper hole (because frankly the laptop is comedically large).

So, until I get my laptop working again, I'm putting a pause on any key art progress. Hope you understand!
