But, as you know, money issues have reared their ugly head and I don't know if I'll have anywhere to sleep in four, five days. No money, nowhere to go, etc.
Because I'm an idiot, I've continued to work a bit on the Recobbled Final Cut, because I want SOMETHING nicer than the rough cut done before I leave this place.
The Final Cut will still be done in May.
But at the moment I've created the Rough Cut version 1.5, which will become the Rough Cut 2.0 by tomorrow.
Since part 1 of the film now has pretty much final video, and I secretly had another completed version of pt 2 (done with the Stanch workprint) which I never showed anybody, which is not as good as the Emule workprint but better than the Rough Cut workprint ...
I figured I'd put that better version of the film onto DVD, for the time being.
So ...
Recobbled Rough Cut version 1.5 .... This has the basically finished video for the first half of the film. (Although with mostly the old crappy audio.) This is what you saw on Youtube. The second half is the same old version from the Recobbled Rough Cut.
Recobbled Rough Cut version 2 -- rendering this one out now. This has the basically finished video for the first half of the film. (Although with mostly the old crappy audio.) For the second half, I've started off with a couple of "final" quality scenes, and the rest is from the Stanch workprint, which is better than the Recobbled Rough Cut, but not as good as the final.
So, whoever I send the rough cut to in the next couple weeks will get this version ... kind of a stopgap solution.
Anyone who wants to mail me something within the next couple weeks can mail it to my friend Jason:

Just mark that it's for Garrett Gilchrist, and he'll get the idea.
Best wishes, guys. I'll keep you updated.
