Hi everyone,

Just a quick update. John has picked the hard drive with the missing footage up from the compositor today and we are now in possesion of this beautiful thing:



No this isn't an ad for Seagate hard drives, though they are very reliable, this beautiful thing contains the footage. We will be reviewing it soon and if everything is 100% ok then we will be steaming on with the final edit of the film tomorrow.

More updates to follow...

The Collector - update - Wednesday 5th october 2011

The Collector has been a long time coming with a lot of pitfalls and obstacles in the way. We are hoping that the worst obstructions are out of the way now and final compositing should be completed by the middle of next week. We are aware that there are many times that this has been said, but we have assurances that this will be the case. Once we have the final HD files in our hands we will be putting together the final edit of the film, and once it is all complete we will be looking to upload it to the Approaching Storm Films website for all to see in it's entirity.

For those of you who have been waiting a long time for this to be complete we can only appologise for it's delay, but it has been something out of our control. We can assure you though that we are just as excited about the prospect of having this project come to a close.

Aegis - Info update - by John-Lynton

Aegis has been on the shelf since it's debut at the Soho Short Film Festival back in 2010 while Hannah finished her degree and both of us have been focusing on our careers. The project was a great success and considering it was all created in two weeks it's something we are both proud of. We are still in the process of getting Aegis converted across from super 8 to digital and once this is done we wilhttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifl be sending it to other festivals but once it has done it's circuit we will be looking for other ways of making it available for people to see.

For the time being, if you're interested on finding out more about Aegis you can visit the Facbook page here, and by the end of October 2011 you should be able to view more information on the Approaching Storm Films website.
