Hi guys it's me Santi,
Something we just realized during editing is that many of our shots include the branding of the gas station where we filmed and since it’s a real brand, it doesn’t quite fit the look we’re going for in the opening, and we also didn’t get explicit permission to feature their logo but just to film outside the station, so we might have to replace the logo. Thankfully, it’s an easy fix, and I’ve done it before, so we don't have to reshoot or anything along those lines.
Now we just need to come up with a name for our gas station! it won't be anything crazy, it'll probably be something simple like just "Gas Station," which might sound silly, but plenty of movies have done similar things. For example, "The Substance" had a talk show in the film literally called "The Show", so keeping it generic wouldn’t be too out of place.
In other news, our team has been working on color grading! One of my team members shared some preview images, and the graded footage is looking great. The main challenge is balancing the lighting, since we shot over an extended period, and it got darker as the day went on, so we’ll need to adjust for that in the color grade, but overall, things are going well!

Until next time, Santi :)
