"No Heroes" should be out tomorrow!

UPDATE: I am virtually finished apart from rendering it out, but I think it's probably best to sleep on it and check to see if the audio levels are still okay when I wake up...as opposed to putting it out there and regretting something I could have fixed rather easily. This will be up Saturday!!!

Hi all,

Thank you for all of your patience and continued support...I really needed it this time around. So long as nothing goes wrong with rendering, I should have this out tomorrow (Friday) later in the day (or, if there is something wrong with rendering, early Saturday). 

Per usual, I will give you my honest feedback and assessment:

The positives:

- Cali's acting! I think she did a really great job with this one, as to be expected.

- I am mostly happy with the aesthetics of the clip in terms of color correction and what not (apart from the GoPro...which is also to be expected haha). 

- I think the scenario was ambitious and interesting. Once the clip gets going past the intro, I think it has a nice linear flow and buildup. 

- Collaboration! In general I just think it's cool when any producers work together (even though this was just being granted permission, I still like the idea of bringing together the different worlds of producers...because I certainly don't have a mechanism to put Cali into a model city haha). 

Self-critique:

- As mentioned previously when I released the unaware b-side clip, I sorta wish I had only focused on shooting this clip instead, because the rushing led to not collecting enough cut-away footage that I would have liked to use when I needed to fill something in. One of the reasons why it took me so long to edit this clip was that I did not have enough footage to pull from when a transition didn't work (or when there was a slight mishap in consistency). Thus, I had to come up with some clever tricks in order to make it work. 

- I wish I had more establishing shots. One of the reasons why I reached out to Gary from Giantesszone in the first place was because I felt like I needed something to raise the stakes in making her feel like the giant we all know and love. In this way, I hope that the cuts back and forth work for people...because although *I* think it's cool, some folks might find it challenging. 

- I'm not sure if I had enough "interaction" for what people like to see in these clips. A lot of this clip is the set-up trying to set the stage for the final pay-off. Although I had Cali casually eating people throughout (as a means to keep interactions abound), I think that I probably should have had her eat people more consciously and cruelly as opposed to so nonchalantly.

...With all of that being said, I hope you enjoy the clip! As much as I can be hard on myself, I know that there are still a lot of things that I love about this one...I mean, it's Cali Logan haha. And don't forget, you'll be getting this one for "free" even though I will still post the link (just because I like having the record). I am going to try to upload it to YouTube *and* try to upload it to a drive where you all can download it as well.
