...woah. Tell me, did Joss really do that, or is that god-like photoshopping?

Both! This is one of the reasons for a new Serenity C.E DVD. We had more extras. ;)

- Frame. By frame. By frame.(134 frames)

- Convert all to BMP so it animates as a GIF. (134 AGAIN.)

- Keyframe animation and order. (Total: 268)

- Add text and logo

- TADA! Shiny goodness!

Now that it's done...

I'll be in my bunk.

Well deserved rest, I'd say. Holy shit.

*chuckle*

And I never did mention resizing from DVD letterbox and shrinking the canvas too! (268 frames total/134 each)

Amusingly, this made the Editor hit the cutting room floor. I'm sure Joss would be amused.

"Why where you cut? Perhaps it was the frame in the way being Lisa?"
I'd imagine he'd tell her. "It's time for MY close up. Yours is week after Frozen Hades celebrations."

And I know he's never mean, always smartarse jovial. Hard to get nuance in text.
