Finally reached (and passed) the date (30th Arpil) for my film to be shown locally for a one off screening alongside five other short films. This has been the most stressful thing I've done to date, I did not reach my goal of completing the fifteen minute film, and I've been told that I had a breakdown towards the end of the deadline.That it was like battle fatigue...I had to stop altogether and then after quite a bit of rest I went into a slow workflow and it really did crawl along as I directed my father with putting sound effects onto the last sequences.
This is what was shown in the theatre and is nine minutes long (and is what I am posting here) but there is further five minutes of completed animation with no sound been done that can not be shown, it is the most frustrating thing, but I will have to be happy that something was being shown instead of nothing being shown.
It was now that I come to think of it, another rbullet point in the whole story of me getting closer to what i want. It was my first professional screening and was a emotional one for me as my entire life has be driven towards this. The cinema was bigger than i thought it would be, but still not gigantic, 67 seats i think they said. but it was nice to be there siting next to the 5 other short films.
