how i pay my crew a.k.a. Pepa the Cowboy
as i mentioned on my blog, we came to an understanding that i'll be paying my crew their wages as their very own puppets. and here is pepa with his miniature puppet cowboy pepa.
the western house and the rocking chair (the one the puppet is sitting on) were all meda by pepa himself. so, who else could've been the owner of those in everland but him?

Last scene in antique store
You wouldnt guess this is a hand-made house.. Looks so real.. Marketa's work..
Neuhádli byste, že je to ručně dělaný domeček, že ne? Vypadá tak reálně. Markétina práce..
See.. This is how our "real street" looks.. the scale is 1:12 meaning that 12 real centimeters is 1 cm in Everland..
Vidíte, takhle vypadá ulice v pravém světe.. měřítko je 1:12, což znamená že 12 cm ve skutečnosti je 1cm v Everlandu..

her şey çok güzel olacak
i probably should have written (or even better, said in person) what i'm about to write, a very long time ago. but then again, better late than never, right?
i know that i haven't been able to express my excitement enough, about how things are working out. and if you haven't noticed, let me break the news for you; i've always felt kind of bad for getting help for some reason. but it's completely different this time. i can't even describe your parts in the whole process as "help" only, it's so much more. and yes, i don't feel bad. at all.
frankly, i've never experienced anything so cooperative, so collaborative, so creative, so productive, so enthusiastic, so... so much in my whole life. things have been way beyond my imagination, especially for the last few weeks. and even though i have no idea how this all happened in the first place, i just couldn't be any happier than i already am with how and where things are going.
so, thank you. thank you a lot. nothing would be how they are or even better than they are right now if it wasn't for you.
thank you for sticking around.
thank you for enjoying.
thank you for dreaming.
thank you for believing, even more than i do from time to time.
thank you for simply being.
thank you.

update on the zombie incident
all is good now.
oh and one more thing..
A ještě jedna věc..
i know i didn't have the chance to thank you for responding my previous letter so nicely but you really didn't have to be this mean. i never asked for your help, and i'm not doing that now either. so please, just leave us alone.
yours sincerely
Drahý duchu Hermíny Týrlové,
vím, že jsem neměla šanci ti poděkovat za tvoji tak milou odpověď na můj předchozí dopis, ale kvůli tomu jsi opravdu nemusela být tak zlá. Nikdy jsem po tobě nechtěla pomoc ani nebudu to dělat ani teď. Tak jen prosím - nech nás na pokoji.
S úctou
Özlem

AAAAAAAAAA!!
OMG!!! Our main character just turned into a zombie and he's after my brains!! (and weird enough, he looks like a blond Lincoln)
OMG!!! Z našeho hlavního hrdiny se stal zombík a jde mi po mozku!! (a ku podivu vypadá jako blonďatý Lincoln)

New week ahead
Ou jeee, another week of 60 shooting hours is just starting.. Lets hope we will finish the flat scenes and move a bit more to Everland ! And also hope that Özlem will have enough energy for everything :)
Jooo, další týden a jeho 60 natáčecích hodin je před námi! Doufejme, že dokončíme všechny scény v bytě a posuneme se zase kousek blíž k Everlandu. A taky doufejme, že Özlem z toho ještě nejebe ;)

Production of sets

Look at the houses we made. Aren't they beatiful? It's work mainly of Milan and Petra, students of classic animation ( bachelor program). A lot of people helped and are helping. We still have a lot of work ahead because the world of Everland is wonderful and also enormous place.
Tady se můžete podívat na domečky, které jsme vyrobili. Pěkné, že? ;) Většinou je to práce Milana a Peti, studentů klasické animace na UTB. Ale i tak pomáhá hodně lidí. Pořád máme spoustu práce před sebou, protože svět v Everlandu bude ohromné místo co do krásy i do rozměrů.

Next real shooting day
.. some photos from another shooting and exhausting day are here.. i will start to build something from empty tins of energy drinks (nobody from the crew actually appreciated this great idea ;)
.. tady je pár fotek z dalšího natáčecího a neskutečně vyčerpávajícího dne.. mám v plánu postavit nějakou skulpturu z prázdných plechovek od energydrinků (nikdo ostatní z tohoto nápadu takové nadšení neprojevil;)
The flat of young couple is just lovely. And our characters either.
Byt našeho mladého párečku vypadá moc hezky, stejně jako naše hlavní postavy.
Everyone knows that puppets made by Özlem Akin are small, full of little details and really nice. What's new is that they can speak! They have different chins which Özlem changes during the shooting frame by frame, spell by spell.
Každý ví, že loutky od Özlem Akin jsou malé, plné mikroskopických detailů a dohromady moc hezké. Žhavou novinkou ovšem je, že už umí i mluvit ! Mají několik různých bradiček, které Özlem vyměnuje frame po framu, hlásku po hlásce.
Panda!

warning
good luck to us all.
Vím, že to asi nikdo nebude číst předtím než se sejdeme, ale kdyby náhodou, tak jsem vám jen chtěla říct, že dneska nejsem v moc dobré náladě. Tak se prosím snažte předcházet hádkám.
Hodně štěstí nám všem dneska.

First shooting day, first pictures
This is the firts set (set in 50') we shot. You can see a puppet handmade by Özlem (jak jinak,že:), furniture is made by her either. Robert made a lot of really nice books which contain a real story and pictures inside. Unfortunately they are not visible in this picture.
Toto je první scéna, kterou jsme natáčeli, ve stylu padesátých let. Můžete vidět ručně dělané loutky a nábytek od Özlem Akin. Robert udělal spoustu miniaturních knížek, z nichž některé obsahují opravdový příběh.
Drahos will edit the pictures during the shooting, sound will be done the same way.. so the postproduction is a part of production in our project :) Funny thing is the webcam in next picture. We have a lot of problems with technical equipment - lens, programs crushes even the tripots arent fully functional.
Drahoš bude stříhat záběry během natáčení, stejně tak Martin Beck bude průběžně dělat zvuk. Pro náhled musíme používat webku, obecně máme problémy s technikou - objektiv, padají nám programy, dokonce ani stativy na světla pořádně nefungují.

Good tip
I have the solution for the difficult situations - his name is Krupa! He is glad to help with everything...
Mám řešení pro naše obtížné situace - má jméno Krupa! Rád se vším pomůže..
