Updates are about to come pouring in.
For a little while, the reason there were no updates was the progress we were making with The World of Missing Persons was just too fits-and-startsy to get worked up about. Then about three or four weeks ago, the ball got over whatever final hump it had to get over, and things have been moving so fast I haven’t had a chance to document every piece of good news as it’s come!
Post-production soars forward, as the edit approaches the refining stages and the next steps begin! Except for one song-and-dance number [this phrase is more literal than you'd think], a complete cut of the film exists and has been shown to a couple of the crew. Some of the most exciting news is that we have officially brought in the marvelous and talented McKenzie Stubbert as our composer and sound designer, and the film will feature songs by the Portland blues-rock group Little Volcano, plus one other artist/group still TBD.
But the most exciting news of all is that we have scheduled PREVIEW SCREENING and end-of-the-year celebration for December 29th, at the Waypost Cafe. Details will follow in the next day or two (or check Facebook or Twitter for more updates), but we’ll be showing a short program of current and upcoming projects by many of the brilliant collaborators, at the end of which will be the first public screening of (a rough cut of) The World of Missing Persons.
I’ve already seen it, so I know you’re gonna like it.
Like I say, much more specific updates will be pouring in soon.
