Opening Credits sequence re-shot
posted June 23, 2006
Unfortunately, through no fault of the guys at Precision Body Arts, the footage we shot there didn't turn out to be very good. It was useable, but at least two of the shots were completely screwed up, so we were considering re-shooting them in Derry. (They were extreme close-ups, so the background wouldn't have mattered.)
Ultimately, though, I decided that it would be better to do the entire scene over again. Rather than inconvenience the Precision Body Arts staff again, I set up my computer room for it and last night, Rob and Vic and I went through the entire scene. This time, I got the lighting and shots to look much better. The close-up of the implant looks MUCH better, now, since we successfully managed to hide the wires this time around and it doesn't wiggle against Rob's forehead when Vic touches it.
I feel bad that we won't be using any of the footage from Precision Body Arts, after all, but we really appreciate their help with this scene. I still intend to put some shots of their shop in the "Making Of" feature on the DVD, and of course they'll still be listed in the credits.
