Last Friday several members of the cast of our weird cowboy-comedy Edenwood descended upon Backseat Studios in beautiful Ann Arbor to re-record some of their dialog for the movie. This is a common practice in filmmaking, as it's hard to avoid getting some of your audio messed up on set by wind, airplanes flying overhead, policemen chasing you because it's supposedly "illegal to film on the roof of the Ren Cen", etc.
Once you get out of County lock-up, you can go into a sound studio and have the actor folk re-do their lines. It's a pretty hilarious process, because there is nothing quite as madness-inducing as trying to perfectly recreate every little vocal micro-emphasis and saliva bubble that you happened to say onscreen ten weeks ago. It's similar to having to draw what you had for lunch last Wednesday. Actually, it's not really similar to that, but it was fun to type...
The sessions were very productive and are yet another sign that Edenwood is about to be officially finished and released to an unsuspecting world. Try to enjoy your next few weeks, as once this movie comes out, the world is going to be a very different place. Well, okay, that's not actually true, either. But a fella can dream, right?
Soon, we begin the final sound edit and color correction for this critter, which will be our first-ever feature-length monstrosity. Woo Hoo! If you would like to see some funny pictures from behind the scenes, please click here.
More soon!
