Re: Final... It's all over.... (Horror Stories Of The Aftermath)
The reason why you don't start on the final weekend:

We pushed it all the way to 4 AM on Tuesday Morning. We had 3 2-man teams going. A friend and I worked on all the little 3 second scenes, where another team worked on the main city-flythough. Everything went on a portable hard drive that went around, and eventually we all ended up crowded around a seriously underpowered Mac and made the final product in iMovie. Before we knew it, it was 4 AM. And we had school that day.

It all boiled down to 17 hours, about 2 liters of Mello Yellow for each person, 2 computers stolen from the Drafting classroom, and one G4 that everything depended on. I'm known as the animation zombie now.

Next year, we're starting on Kickoff day.
