Short Film

Post by Jonathan »

Okay, I will not have received the film stock by this weekend, but should have it after that. I must have the film ready to be sent for processing by 10/17.

Would Sunday, October 8th in the morning work for you guys? I would like Alan, Phil, John, and either Barbara or Lisa to be in it if possible. If that date doesn't work I can do Sunday, October 15th, but would prefer the 8th. Let me know ASAP so I can make other arrangements if it's not going to work out.

By the way, here is an incredibly amazing detailed storyboard that I drew. I will explain it later.

Actually, if the opportunity arises at any point before then, I wouldn't mind running through it with a digital camcorder, or with no camera at all. I've got around 2 and a half minutes of film stock to make a 1 minute film, so there won't be much of an opportunity to shoot things multiple times.

I have a feeling this is not going to be received well, but, due to time constraints with the camera and the person who is going to help me crew, would anyone be extremely opposed to meeting (at Alan's house) at say... 7:30 AM Sunday? :?

Film came back today, and it looks pretty good. I think it's going to turn out well. I have to storyboard my second film by Tuesday. It will be 2-3 minutes and must use some artificial lighting (we have the equipment for a 3 point lighting setup). I have a couple of ideas, but recently came up with a concept for a continuation of the first film. Obviously to do that would require that John, Alan, and Phil could act again.

So, the questions are, are the three of you interested, and will it be possible to find a date when everyone can film? I have to have it ready to get sent off by November 14th, and I believe Alan returns from his trip on the 7th or 9th, so that would limit us to that following weekend (the 11th and 12th). What do you think?

I've got this thing planned out and storyboarded and such, and we're going to need one more person. I need someone to be Alan's wife/girlfriend for a few shots. Preferably I guess this would be Barbara if she is interested and will be available the day we shoot (which will be either November 11th or 12th; whichever works for everyone).

I also have another request. Between now and the shoot, no one throw away any empty alcohol containers. Put them in a garbage bag or something; I want them for the shoot. Also, if anyone happens to find anymore brooms lying around between now and then, I want as many as possible.
