I was a little more prolific on “The Barrier”
this week. I completed five new scenes and added 9 1/2 minutes. That puts me at
71 minutes in total and I am about 72 per cent completed. The previous three
weeks I averaged only about 5 1/4 minutes.
I completed 43 scenes so far and have 17 more planned. That
should add another 28 minutes and bring me up to 100 minutes. With some
editing, that should end up at around 90 minutes.
So far, I have done most of the scenes in sequence, although
I have skipped ahead a few scenes a couple of times. This week I skipped ahead
to the final scene. It is an important scene and I thought it would be
straightforward. It went quite well. I was tempted to use “Final Scene Done” as
my post title, but decided it was too much of a tease.
As I wrote it, I realized that I’ll need to change one of
the scenes I skipped to match it. It is a good thing I skipped it. Sometimes I
think it makes sense to do your last scene first and your title last.
I did another scene out of order as well. I see it as an
important event in the story because it eliminates a major character. That
makes the last sequence of the movie more difficult to deal with.
The animated characters do “act” wooden, but as I work on
the movie, they do seem to become more real. Maybe that is just wishful
thinking on my part.
