> OK – I have become a serious multi-tasker as of late… Day times I am 2 weeks away from starting predubs on this film I’ve been on for the last month or two, evenings & weekends I am solely focused on Hiss and a Roar… Yes, I know I’ve delayed the launch date twice now, I just did it again but this time I am serious: either this Wednesday I am drinking tequila to celebrate the launch or you all are because I haven’t – it will be my shout! Other stuff on this week: recording a $200k Lexus hybrid car (anyone else done this? experiences/advice? I imagine its silky quiet i.e. hard to record in an urban environment) plus shifter kart recording session 5, plus a diesel 4WD SUV onboard, an 80s Alfa car horn, a boy racer EVO passby and a whole bunch of more mundane stuff….

> Re earlier post about working for free/deferred: this weekend I saw what I strongly suspect is the best film to be made in New Zealand this year. Self funded, shot & edited with cast & crew on deferrals, and a seriously beautiful work of art. Had it been funded with 2-5 million and suffered a ‘typical’ development path, I doubt it would be the work of genius that it is. Just goes to show, there really aren’t any rules: every project must be considered on its own merits.

Nice article on ADR and a few interesting links to wander to as we wait for the Hiss and a Roar launch! Good luck with the last days of preparation!
Btw, thanks for the link to the blog
That Acoustic Light blog is a good read too
