FILMING UPDATE #1 -
Okay, well I just got shooting my first weekend of filming, (My 1st, the films 2nd. They shot other scenes last weekend that I wasnt in.) and I must say... We had a blast. We didn't even get to the kill scenes yet but we made a lot of progress and drank a lot of beer. (I got to "puke" all over this guy, which was a pretty entertaining scene to shoot. Probably not for him though. lol)
We are hoping to be done filming by mid-September but then there will be all of the post production stuff. Bottom line is that it will probably be out some time in early 2006.
We're hoping to have an actual theatre premiere at a local independent theatre, as well as getting it into a few festivals and if eveything goes right, maybe even straight to video at Blockbuster & Hollywood as well as being available on Netflix. (At least those are the aspirations of the director. Some or all of them may not ever come to fruition.)
The killer looks pretty cool and this guy that's directing knows what he's doing. It's his first feature length film, but he is taking it very seriously. I was also a bit surprised that the budget was quite a bit higher than I was initially thinking. When I was told this was gonna be low budget, I was expecting some dude and a camcroder. When I got there, I came to find out he has about $8000 worth of equipment that he owns and a 6 person crrew in addition to the actors. Needless to say, I had underestimated his definition of low budget.
Anyways, that's it for now. I'll update ya'll again after we shoot some more.
