Hey liam do you want me to make to cover… im good at that sort of thing. And i also have some ideas how to do it…
So, about this Etiainen Soundtrack that was just...
I’ll make it for Smithy, using the music we used, could have used but didn’t, and music that just inspires the movie. So far, I have this on the track list: The Etiainen - Liam Watson Now Or Never - Liam Watson Squirtle Piano 2 - Daniel Schraer Fade To Black - Apocalyptica Metallica (the apocalyptica one is poor quality) When Will It End - Ozmosis Stockholm Syndrome - Muse (courtesy of...

THE FINAL COUNTDOWN - The To-Do List and Schedulue...
Alright, here’s the breakdown. We have until Thursday to clean up the rest of the movie - cause on Friday, the final rendering and burning will take place. I know everyone is stressing and going mad cause of the stress of “Hell On Earth Week” (as many have coined it), and thus, I have come up with a list on this tumblog, which I’ll monitor and cross off as the stuff is...
PROGRESS REPORT - Overhaul of Etiainen
Yesterday, me and Nat got started on the beatdown of what we’ve got. Cleaned up the first classroom scene, added music (The Squirtle Piano that was never used) to the second encounter (outside). We added some bell noises to lead into the detention scene as well. Next on the to-do list is to clean up some of the longish sections of the spaz-out scene (i.e. we spend too much time on extras and...
IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT - Final Product of Etiainen
((This is a TL;DR post. If you don’t want to read the jargon, skip down to the summary in bold down the bottom. I know I write too much for my own good, mb. XP))
It has come to my attention, and the attention to everyone else, that we have somewhat of a problem with Etiainen. Everyone has seen the final product that we are expected to submit to Mr Smith (or the CC, as some people are...

MUSIC RIGHTS OBTAINED AND OURS!!! *evil laughter*
For our movie, I have (finally!) gotten the musical rights to the work of Daniel Schraer, a renowned composer famous for his work on the web series “There Will Be Brawl” (which is an awesome series, go check it out here). His music is slow piano and other instruments, which, if we use it right, will add the sinister horror music to the apparition scenes. I will upload the song we have...
“Yo a freak, mafucker.”
– Greyskull (Andy), on our main character, Luke.

IMPORTANT UPDATE FOR MEDIA DRIVES
It has been announced that all Macintosh HD drives across the school will be wiped in a school-wide format update killing spree of info and whatever. In layman’s terms, anything you have on individual accounts will be gone. Boom. Nada. Zip. Finito. I’m fuzzy on details, but its all in the name of performance and updates. Bleh.
For us media kids, this means that any sound files,...
awesome camp everyone - you guys rock.

Liam has the talkin stick. ^_^
Me and Yasu need the script by the end of tomorrow to get a head start on the storyboarding before we leave for the camp on Friday afternoon. Failing that, I have an alternative that we could use that Ms Lennox provided me.
We can use a scripting technique that I think is called three-stage scripting, where the audio, script and shots are all added in the one sheet...
Another couple of names possible
Dark Side - In the history of northern american tribeman the tomem of the wolf is a totom the encoraging the lesson of accepting the dark side within ourselves.This helps tie in with the story line because the psycotic side of him is taking over and the story progresses.

Actor Issues
I think we need to revise which actors play what in the movie. Its just some ideas I have been bouncing around in my head, feel free to shoot them down as required.
We have two major actors: Jackson, who is supposed to play the wolf (who is now the apparition, yes?), Luke, who is our main, and the possibility of stealing Ryan as a teacher extra is on the horizon, but IMO, Im not holding my...
Potential Titles For Production
Here are some titles for the movie which I have come up with, and could be used. I’ve included a small explanation with each title choice.
Of Wolf And Man - Derived from the title of the Metallica single of the same name, I liked this one because it includes the concept of the “wolf” as well as incorporating a sense of the conflict between our wolf and our MC. Also, the song...
