Apologies for the delayed updates

Okay, I know I promised everyone to be posting updates about the past few weeks. Truth is, I've just been busy and I still am. About our new members, I'll have to blog about them some other time. We'll be meeting up once again this Saturday to give a full blast on post-production editing. So what's been up? Well, from January 4 to 10, none of our plans on the schedule were actually fulfilled. Why? I'm not really sure but it seems that most members are starting to be busy again. So on January 11 I called some members for a rehearsal. Only Ed was able to come along with two of the new guys, Terence and JE. Enough to have a rehearsal of most of the movie's dialogues. It went pretty well, now we've filled up the role for Edward's boss at the office. All we need now is Edward's coworker, the Hacker, the 7th glitcher, and the Guitar Slinger.

Yesterday, we went to Intramuros with Ed and JE for a rehearsal. We needed a nice place to sit down, meditate and visualize to come up with ideas for the fightscenes. The place we went to was in fact the location for the Leo vs. Ethan fightscene so it helps being at the place while thinking of moves and choreography. On the way there we stopped by Tutuban to buy Ethan's costume. And while we're at it, me and Ed bought ourselves some new "costumes" as well. I'll post the pics next week. As for the rehearsal it went great, we came up with almost an entire fightscene that day, just need to connect the pieces, come up with more actions, draw the storyboards and practice the moves. For next week, I still haven't managed the schedules of the cast, scenes and locations but I have a few things in mind. So here's what we might be up to:
Office scene at Crimson Shot, San Mateo
Cafeteria scene at Eastwood City, Libis
Gunman fightscene, again.
Jenny's room, again.

Well, now that we've done some progress with the conceptualization part, time for me to hit the storyboards again. Ayt guys, be seein' ya!
