The Lull

Everything has hit a little low point in productivity. Between fulltime jobs, school, and the adventures of every day life, new film projects will have to remain theoretical. But not to fear! The cogs of BurlyBuff continue to turn (slowly)...

Step 1) We've gone transcontinental. With a Burly team member on each coast, we're here to do our thing, collaborate on any projects, right any wrong, drink many beverages, dream the impossible dream, and take a nap like there's no tomorrow.

The next endeavor is to create a semi-permanent green screen room. The space is aprox. 20x12, and armed with the leftover length of green nylon fabric from Lost Springs, a couple of lights, some aluminum foil and a box of thumbtacks, I plan to test out various methods of compositing and motion capture. Have we hit an alltime low in production value? YOU BET!

If this goes well, a room devoted to miniature model building, and possibly stop motion sets may be the next exploration in wasting time and money.
