Although I felt relieved after the re-shoot and have started editing for few days, there are still many things to do in post-production:
- Visual edit — at the fine cut stage but I’d like to start sound design to get the feel and mood and take that to the account in final cut. I still need a clearance to use Mrs Delloway book cover and find a tourist footage travelling by boat.
- Music — I was going to compose myself but I found that I’d better get a license. I have been listening to mobygratis and Rafiralfiro over and over then decided to ask Rafiralfiro (I used their music for my previous film) to use Celeste (harp song) but found that it was an original soundtrack of El Plan B. I contacted them anyhow meanwhile I might look for another composer.
- Sound design — I couldn’t believe that CG15 has been pre-booked ahead. I thought I was quick. This project is pretty much plan for sound design and I’d like to do surround 5.1 to show off at Annual screening. This is something Cofa might have to look at when renovating the campus.
- DVD — There is a rough idea and a cover sketch in my visual diary but it will come along later.
That’s the post-production juggling. Still.So.Much.To.Do.

This is the memoir of how my major project at College of Fine Arts, University of New South Wales, unfolds. We, Master of Digital Media students, were asked to write a blog about our projects on the schools server. This film is very much personal since it is mainly about mental illness and I am currently climbing out of the depression. I hope that the experience of making this short film would share what I have been going through and will make some awareness of the issue.
