    What you have to consider is even though all the visuals are complete, there is a hell of a lot of work to do on the soundtrack.

    Falcon is working hard on the sound FX tracks for the whole film and the dialogue is complete but still needs tweaking slightly.

    The real toughie is creating the score.

    Try to compose some original music in your mind, then try to imagine composing for numerous instruments to get that orchestral fullness. Now try putting it down on paper.

    Do all that for over an hour of footage trying to convey the emotion of the scenes and make sure non of it clashes.

    It is for sure a huge undertaking to create that amount of good music from nothing.

    as MrVH says we are both out of action over Christmas. Im off on the 12th Dec and wont be back until 14th Jan. Im off to India to visit my wifes family. MrVH is probably off the same period. So we go on hold for that one month.

    I know everyone is climbing up the walls about the release of this film, we feel like oleg and his promises of patch releases, but the fact is we can see light at the end of the tunnel at last. There are already large sections of music completed and the final mixing is not far away once we get the time to spend on it.

    Anyway.

    Rome wasnt built in a day.

    There you have it from the front lines, people.

    LOL Ain???t that the truth! I have a lot more sympathy for poor Oleg now. But, this IS going to be released, be sure.

    The key people doing the remaining work on the film now are: BA (music composition and sound mixing), MrVH (music composition), Falcon (sound FX) and Joe90 (senior editor, tweaking the last two scenes before putting all the pieces together for the final render). Anything any of those people say about the release date overrides anything I say. My producer title is way overrated, really. When I'm not misleading fans to believe the release date is just around the corner, I pass my time waving a giant peacock fan over the workstations of the four people above and replenishing the beer nuts.

    Dart, I'll get back to you next year about hosting once we decide. As you can see, we're still a little ways out. We just wanted to poll people on this subject now before we make the final decision.

    Stay tuned for my next false-hope-raising poll entitled: "FH&C...Blu-Ray or HD-DVD?"

    having 3 or 6 files to view seperatly in your media player isnt the best

    nicer to have an un-zipped (or un-RAR) single video file<div class="ev_tpc_signature">

    OK, I can see the natives are restless again. Update time.

    All video capturing is done. All video editing is done. All ADR is done (redoing some dialogue recordings).

    What remains is to add sound effects to two scenes and to finish scoring the film. About 1/3 of the music (rough estimate) looks to be done. I think we're on track for a March release, and when have I ever been wrong before?<div class="ev_tpc_signature">

    ADR=Automated Dialogue Replacement. Basically, just "dubbing" dialogue in spots that need to be redone.
