Updated (ish?) Key Art

 Hello! I wish I could say I've been busy filming this week, as Spring Break would've been an optimal time to shoot all the scenes so I could get that over with as soon as possible. However, LOTS of scheduling conflicts arose, along with some other issues I had to deal with in my personal life, meaning I couldn't dedicate the time necessary to actually film this week, which is a MAJOR issue.

Needless to say, I'm NOT HAPPY with how things turned out. But there's no point dwelling on the past, and I can't afford to sit around moping about difficulties in getting stuff done. So I steeled my nerves and got to work on doing what little I COULD get done alone, meaning while there isn't a lot of progress on the short film production side of things, I've gotten LOADS of work done in other components of the portfolio project that I could do with little dependence on any outside parties, like running my social media page or working on the postcard advertisement, with blogs corresponding to each of those activities.

So lets get to the point of this blog. An updated key art post? What was wrong with the previous key art, the one I worked on in this blog post? Well, if you recall the image I posted, it had two major gripes that I intended on fixing: the screen display and the depth of the grave. The screen was an easy, but mandatory, fix. I simply traded computers again with my computer-dealing buddy, who had repaired the battery on the first computer (an exchange I talked about in this blog post). 

Now all I needed was a deeper grave. Once again, I contacted my buddy Sebi, who helped dig the first hole, and the friend who gave me the computer decided to tag along as well. Luckily, my choice in friends means they don't ask questions when I ask for help digging graves in forests, so we went on our way at once!

When we first dug the hole it was perfectly deep, but not wide enough. So enjoy this picture of me posing next to the too-small grave!

Finally, this is what I got. Honestly, It's almost perfect, save for two details: the brightness of the computer screen, and the dirty surroundings around the hole.

The brightness is a simple Photoshop fix, it's a non-issue. I'm still toying around with the idea of keeping the ground dirty and unkempt, instead of the nice grass in the last key art image. 

I'll update soon with my final revision of this image! Who know taking a picture of a computer in a hole would take so much time??
