 When I was in post-production with Westside N 'Ja, I was working at Long Beach City College. I used professional video tape, Panasonic DVC-PRO. When I left the job, I was 20 minutes into the movie and have not had professional access since. Now DVC-PRO VTR decks are $30,000 each. The only place I can transfer my video is at a post-production facility. For $35 each tape, I can slowly convert all of my DVC-PRO footage onto a DVD. Then from DVD, I can convert the video into DiVX.
The audio has not been sweetened. The audio dubs has not been done either. Most of the people in this film I've lost contact with since "1994" and "1995". So, it will never been done.
Fortunately, since I do have the original DVC-PRO tapes, I will be able to archive the videos on my web site where I can share with the rest of the world, my videos that have been collecting dust since I've stored them.
NOW FEATURING the unfinished Westside N 'Ja (Tape S1-EM)
Time 25:36
Westside N 'Ja
Starring Erick Ferman, JoAnn Pantoja, Jason Ray, Bob Spears, and Nate Kincy.
This movie, wow, needs work. But this was years ago. I shot this movie at Long Beach City College back in 1993. Shot on S-VHS and MiniDV, then dubbed to professional digital tape Panasonic DVC-PRO, I begun post-production in 1996.
Well, the fact is that I never completed post and has been collecting dust ever since. Since DVC-PRO VTRs cost $30,000 each, I have not seen this video in over 10 years. Now for the first time, I am able to see this video and other videos.
KEEP IN MIND: This is the video edit only. The audio sweetening has and will never be completed. The vocal overdub has not be completed either.
However, as I convert more of my DVC-PRO tapes to DVD, then converting them to DiVX, I will add more videos to tie the storyline up some more. One day, I will finish the film. For now, this is what I got.
