Final Cut!

We now have a final cut of TARA!

On the evening of Thursday 21st we decided that we had the film in front of us. It was done and ready to go! But now, even with the picture locked, we still have a long way to go, to get the film finished and ready for viewing. Over the next month we will be doing all sound post-production and music composition for the film. Much of this has already started even before the picture edit was finished. So that hard work will continue both here - in Ireland - and over in London, with Jay Enticknap and the team.

Some folks have been asking us about why we are doing audio post-production in London and so I always give the same blunt answer "Because here, in the north of Ireland, we are held to ransom by the monopoly on all things film production. We - all local film directors and producers - are charged a fortune for equipment and studio time by most companies and individuals who have their head in the clouds"

In the case of camera equipment we have been lucky enough to work with HD Camera Hire. A new company with their feet firmly on the ground, who have been a fantastic help to us during the production of the film.

There will be a teaser trailer for TARA going up on the site some time soon, so keep checking in!

More soon!
