Post-production of "A Better Fate" continues.  We are attempting to finish a final cut by early July.

1. Vitas and I have finished the rough cut.  Three major tasks remain before we have final cut:

2. Joe and Morgan are filtering the sound recorder files to remove noise.

3. After 2) is finished, Vitas and I will sync the sound with the video and mix an acceptable soundtrack.

4. Several visual errors remain in the rough cut, including a visible boom mike.  Vitas is using Adobe AfterEffects to fix these errors.

5. I am developing a poster and synopsis for "A Better Fate", which we'll use for the DVD.
