2011 New Years Resolutions Recap

I know this is a few days late but I wanted to update you on the progress I made last year.
Here is a post I posted last year:
2011 New Years Resolutions

1. Learn to Climb on an Indoor Rock wall (I went once to climb and didn’t really get a second chance all ways this year.)
2. Direct two new short Films in 2011 (I ended up only directing 1 short film this year “Time borrowers” will be released soon.)
3. Write a new feature length script (I wrote 40 page of one but I did write 3 new shorts and a 5 episode web series.)
4. Get a short film accepted into a festival (didn’t happen because I didn’t submit any)
5. Start production on a web series (This did happen “Unhinged” we shoot in February)
6. Write more on my blog (I’m up to almost once a week)
7. Meet one of my favorite directors (Didn’t do this but did get an email address to one.)
8. Move to L.A full time (Nope got to busy working in Film)
9. Buy a new Mac Book Pro (Nope, I’m okay with me PC laptop right now.)
10. Finish everything on my 2011 list (Nope but always this year 2012)

Productions has been pushed

We were all ready to shoot on the 19th of Dec and then this happens.

One of the downfalls of having a small budget is that if you a lose any money from an investor it can shut you down.

As of right now we are funded 50% of the way and now need to find the money the investor promised us but at the last moment decided not to help us out for no reason.

So the producers and I had a long talk and decided to push production of Unhinged to January. This will give us about three more weeks of pre production and will give us more time to make a better product.

All of our crew is still locked in and ready to roll.

We are going to start a Kickstarter to see if we can raise the 5000.00 we are looking for. Still talking to investors and product placement deals. We are going to make this series happen.

Things we need to find:

1. We are still looking for our main characters house.
2. Prop guns
3. A few more cast members (Due to conflicts with the new schedule)

More info to come very soon.

Thank you for all of your support.

Updates on Production of Unhinged.

Casting:

Here we are in Todd Biss Photography studio casting for Unhinged. Big thanks to Todd for letting us use his space today. You can see a lot of Todd’s work here: http://www.toddbiss.com/ check out his work it is really good.

We are almost completely cast now. I can’t wait to start filming.

Things I’ve learned in the casting process find the money to hire a casting director or agency. But that behind us we had a good day all and all. We have offer one part already and more to come we will post pictures and bio when they are all locked in.

Locations, we also had every location and then we had one pull out so now we are on the hunt but it will all come together. I’m going to scout a new apartment tomorrow and look at a few house on Monday.

We found our DOP Travis Cleary his reel is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ekkH25Yvh3A

We are really excited to have Travis on board.

What Happens Next:

1. Finish location scouting
2. Locking the shooting Draft of the script and Strip Board
3. Set Design/Props buying will happen this week.
4. Lock in Wardrobe
5. Tech Scout
6. Production Meeting
7. Rehearsals
