Delousing: one third done

We're more than a third of the way through the process of rebuilding the editing project file. 

After living so long with a corrupted project, it's wonderful to have every single media file simply appear properly with no obtuse errors or bizarrely unlinked media.

Ah. The simple joys of a project file behaving properly.

It's finally feeling like we're about to get ourselves out of this freaking pit of quicksand and back on the road toward solid edit of the film.

I've been diy-ing a sci fi short for the past year or so and am in post production; dealing with similar xml issues. A pain indeed! The whole process certainly takes a lot of time especially since I and most of our crew have a day jobs to support our "real" job. How do you fund your diy projects? Do you get grants or have sponsors? I'd love to be able to put all my energies into this and upcoming endeavors!

I'm in the same boat. I try to fit it in during nights and weekends. Funding comes from friends/family crowdsourcing-style but mostly donations of time from awesome supportive people who are totally into our project. Break a leg!
