AFI tech run through

last friday, me and paul stopped by the AFI for a technical run through for the screening of the film in june. we basically, projected the first few minutes of the film and made sure everything looked and sounded just right. it also gave the projectionist time to jot down notes on the specifics of the screening - masks, lenses, etc. in any case, it was incredibly exciting to finally see the film on the big screen, even though it was only the first few minutes.

the screening is going to be awesome. all the hard work has finally paid off, and it basically moves the film into a phase where the concentration will be on publicity and promotion it, and film festivals and distributors, and film markets...yikes. yeah, it's a ton of stuff.

but i guess the most important thing is to enjoy the fact that film has gotten this far. i think the film has turned out beautifully, and i'm sure that tom and andrew will be overwhelmed to see themselves on the big screen at the AFI.

ironically, i'm not sure if i'll stay in the theatre the whole time the film is being screened. i've seen it so much, i might prefer to stand near the back, and sneak out when i feel like i need a drink...

anyhoo, the screening is going to be awesome, and PRAXIS is really finally coming together.
