Make the Invaders Wish They'd Never Heard of the Planet Earth


It's time to make the invaders wish they'd never heard of the planet Earth.

That's so the tag line of our next movie.

(The same comic is produced here twice -- once bigly and once not-so-bigly.)

Started mixing act 2 of Day 2. Well, started the dialog, music, and effects edits anyway. This movie has a lot of different and specific elements. There's this whole thing where there are voices in the protagonist's head. And then there are zombies. And then there are these giant whirley monster robots.

Act 2 has every one of those things.

Plus music. I'm doing a bit of adding Video Copilot scores to some stuff I'm making up on the fly through the trusty Roland JV1080. Lucky for me when my friend Ed McNamee originally bought the Roland, he got the classical expansion pack with it. That JV1080 has got to be 20 years old at this point but it has some very usable sounds in it. I keep seeing film composers list them in their studios.

I'm not entirely sure I'll be able to keep up doing the whole score myself without getting really irritated with the process, but it's the quickest way to go, that's for sure.
