God, I hope this is in 3D.

I wonder if it would have been eligible for the 'Best Original Song' Oscar, given the transformation they made to it. I hear Malkovich is annoyed that he won't be eligible for 'Best Supporting Actor', just because he was inside Andy Serkis the whole time.

Okay, I managed to get all the principal shots processed down to about 125MB; they're uploading now.

Next, I'll be going through the driving-around shots, and I expect to upload those within a few hours.

You might have to pull moving silence from the window shot, as the only explicit silence we captured was background noise while parked, since we inadvertently shot one of the scenes with the door open.

By the way, Teague, if I were to upload everything I have, it would be around 12GB.  Is that a problem for you, server- or bandwidth-wise?

I'm planning to pare it down and organize it according to your suggestions anyway, but I'm still pretty fluey, and it's tiring, so I may not get it as cleaned-up as I'd like.  I don' t know what kind of internet plan you're on, but if it's anything like the kind of cell-phone plans you have in the States, I don't want to be blowing your caps or burning your money more than necessary.

Am off to do my remaining shooting now -- three (!) people are helping.  It's like I have a film crew. Ideally, I won't cough up a lung while on camera, but you can cut that out, right?

How do you know that wasn't why he was at the bottom of the Mariana Trench the other day?

That's it. I'm filming mine on the Moon.

Also, how about props?  Can I wear a hat?  In one of my quiet shots, could I be checking my twitter or eating a banana or doing a Rubik's cube or fiddling with a sonic screwdriver?
