The Nasi Lemak Reward

In return for their many months of days and nights spent slogging over S'kali, tirelessly watching the same scenes over and over until able to recite the movie from beginning to end, Bristol based editors Luke Yerbury and Ali Maggs (left and right of writer/director Arivind Abraham respectively) were treated to a full home made nasi lemak meal, complete with beef rendang, sambal tumis udang, hoisin chicken and pisang goreng for dessert prepared from scratch by Associate Producer/chef wannabe Samantha Tan.

am pleased to report that all parties involved ate until unable to move. Well done, boys!:)

The Great Render

Well S'kali is finally cut and done!

Well, nearly lah..

The movie is now fully complete from front to back with credits and music etc and now there is only one more thing left...

THE GREAT RENDER!

Rendering is the lovely part of digital filmmaking, and with the kind of plug-ins being utilised on S'kali, rendering takes up a good chunk of the work being done by Ali Maggs and Luke Yerbury.

1 minute of footage equals about 1 hour's worth of rendering.

S'kali is 1 hour 15 mins.

Yes...you are good at math and have not miscalculated the time of The Great Render.

So yes, S'kali now sits on our G5, chugging away day and night till it finally says 100% and that blue bar has filled up.

Man, digital filmmaking it the best.
