"A Handful of On The Other Hand" DVD Postproduction: Week 2
Things are moving along briskly on the "A Handful of On The Other Hand" DVD project. Almost all the necessary footage is captured into the system, new/additional graphics are being created, a run order is being finalized and I am settling on what bonus footage will be included. There are a handful of promos, some audition footage and at least one finished segment that never made it to air. It still looks like there will be a lone commentary track (featuring me by myself), but that could change. We could have more. It all depends on disc space.
The compilation will include a slightly altered intro featuring headshots of each cast member (yes, that includes you, Scott Sanders...finally!!!), as well as extended ending credits including bonus bits and clips squeezed in for maximum comedic value.
On the nuts and bolts end, chief amongst my tasks will be color correction, sound mixing and tweaking for timing sake. I want this compilation to be FAR superior to any single episode of the show. It's been three years since the show died and there's just flat out more that we can do with the footage now. Re-recording of voiceovers, for example, is not out of the question.
In scanning through the footage today during the BRIEF lunchtime session, some bits were extended, some were chopped and some previously dumped bits were added back in to present the best, most well-rounded assortment of footage available. (Though more than a few solid bits will ultimately be left out. This is unavoidable.)
It was also decided today that an official viewing party will be scheduled to celebrate the long-awaited completion of the project. To all of you who keep asking me about the project, thanks for your continued interest. It won't be long now.
More next week...
