It's release day for THE DRAGON HAS SOME COMPLAINTS! Garrodigh is a wild dragon who pretends to be tame so he can eat for free at the local dragon-riding academy. But what's waiting for him up there is far stranger than he imagines. I'm so proud of my dragon for finally escaping into the world!

Just got so scared reading my horror book that I had to take a break, at which point I realized I’d been rocking my torso forward and backward. Goddamn, I love good writing. (I’m finally reading The Luminous Dead by @caitlinstarling.com and I’m very sad I’m nearly done reading all of her books.)
@caitlinstarling.com, you will always be famous!!!!!! What a ghastly fucking book I just devoured. Please, read The Starving Saints ASAP it will enthrall you and bond you into reading all of it in one sitting. I partially choose to read this because I couldn’t really eat—what exquisite gore! 10/10

I HAVE FINISHED THE CUT OF THE LUMINOUS DEAD V.O.D.! Now to go through and polish, make sure it all makes sense, and tweak audio and color correction as needed. (One of my three cameras is never gonna exactly match the other two, and I just need to accept that.)
Accepting any and all instant pot recipes, the simpler the better. Hotel cooking mode engaged.
updates: still no word from the living expenses folks at insurance, love that. most of the demo is complete, revealing a lot less damage than there could have been. still pretty surreal. hopefully we’ll be back in sooner than originally expected since they didn’t have to rip out the kitchen.
you know, if the insurance additional living expenses folks who are supposed to figure out housing for us could actually call, that would be helpful.
Final day!

Slow going today. About 1/4 of the way there. Each of these clips on this nested timeline is a multicam sequence with 2-3 cameras... so first I edited each of those multicam tracks to pick the best shots, and now I'm editing them into the final cut.
yeah we’re out of our house for the foreseeable future. Anybody have tips for how to handle displacement with three cats? 🫠

And rough cut of Act 2 is done! I think the final edit of this half is gonna be a little more complicated, but that's a job for tomorrow.
Rough cut of Act 1 of The Luminous Dead is complete! It's built entirely from footage from the 6/6 performance. There are a couple dozen inserts I want to do with shots from other performances, then final color grading to better match the different cameras. But first onto the rough cut of Act 2!
I'm currently processing footage, and hope to have a rough cut of The Luminous Dead by the end of the week. Wish me luck!
sometimes I have dreams with recurring locations which is why I now get excited when the dream version of my neighborhood gets a new restaurant
being extremely normal about how cool Adanya Koger-Hobson is as Gyre
I got to see the show yesterday and it was both wildly surreal and deeply cool. The stage crew is also Isolde’s team is also the cave itself and it adds SO. MUCH. mostly my thoughts are incoherent screaming but wow Andrew and co did an amazing job
Andrew Hungerford@luxtheatrum.bsky.social · 2mo agoWe had our first full dress run of The Luminous Dead tonight. More tech work and final dress on Sunday. Very excited to share this with audiences on Tuesday.
One of the cool challenges in adapting The Luminous Dead is crafting a space that can fully transform under light and projection. Here you can see a moment at Camp 2 where Gyre's suit's reconstruction of the chamber is incomplete. (Photo by scenic designer Sarah Beth Hall).
