UPDATE!!! Yep - it's actually been revived...!!

 *Ahem*


I actually forgot that I even had this blog...!

(I have no idea if anyone is still following this...! LOL) 

Here we are, 16 years on, and I am now a full time freelance compositor - who still does visuals effects and learns new stuff in spare time... 

I re-discovered some old work of mine, and wondered how it might come out if I were to redo it now - with my current skillset, and all the advancements in software and hardware. 

This is my first test - on seeing the old teaser I did for an old idea, "Future War". It's an improvement - but it still has its problems. 

However, I did it in a fraction of the time, and given what I have learned since the original idea, and doing this teaser, I have decided to forge ahead. Only this time, with a completely new script, much tighter, shorter - and all digital. I've had to ditch the live-action approach for practical and financial reasons - but have learned a LOT of new skills in the process, and am still continuing to learn... 

This teaser is more of a test - a work in progress, if you will (although I won't come back to it - I'm more focused/ excited by the actual short film itself now!)...so please take it with a pinch of salt: the end film should be of a much higher quality by the time it goes out...! 

In the meantime, enjoy...!

  1. Hey Nick, it's been a while! Excited to see the project being resurrected and - considering how unremarkable the newer Terminator films are - it may shine by comparison! :)
