Dilly here: as part of the process of developing a bit of animation one would perform the role to be animated. I recorded this multiple shot rehearsal of a Japanese demon called an "Oni" for "Goose in High Heels". The footage is used to study movement and timing and perhaps launch inspiration. Careful when conjuring demons... I am not a superstitious person, however when I started this sequence my HD crashed losing hours of work, my Cintiq failed, I injured my back, neck and jammed my finger... I tore up the mask and braved completion of the sequence. Is it possible to evoke the very spirit of evil with our intentions?

All audio efx completed on GiHH. There was much rejoicing. Now on to music. William Hohauser demonstrates quacks using the Dilly "goose-tube".

We committed to a cut of the movie. Much rejoicing. Now the hard work begins. SFX, music and vocals. And still we could always cut again as the piece matures. Current length 22:12.

For any fans living in Los Angeles, CA. here is your first opportunity to view "Goose in High Heels" on the massive screen! https://www.landmarktheatres.com/los-...

Wrapping up refining process on GiHH before the full Moon. Taking criticism as a necessary part of development. No guarantee that our efforts prevail. Another phase of our lunar cycle. Pardon the lousy camera, use your own eyes as camera.

Dilly here: We did it. A high-water mark in production. We have a First Final Cut. It's running 23 minutes. All in. I am sending the cut out to a few trusted eyeballs for criticism. I want to improve the work and that requires new eyeballs. Five weeks to completion... maybe.
