     As of now, most of Pistil is synced and edited.  We have many scenes edited together smoothly and we're about 80% done editing the main montage that takes up essentially the first half of the film.  We're still working on getting some pickups that will enable us to weave some scenes together and see what will become most of the finished product.  Once we have the montage edited, we plan on sending a rough cut of it to the band Moon Hooch in order to request permission to use their song "Number 9" for the montage.  We are also currently working on finding a song for the ending of the film.  Nothing we have so far is color corrected or color graded.  As of now, I'm just excited to see what the finished film will look like and how it all comes together!
