viddy well little brothers


Welly welly well then

The 22nd of May is now just one week away. And my progress is scant at best. I am now seriously starting to doubt my chances of getting this film up annd made. I have had seriously one F*ing week to organise things. It is ridiculous!!!!!!! I will list the good, the bad, and the ugly of this project.

The Good- Have XD CAM, and possibly a monitor, and track. Have a make-up girl who is super keen, and super good it seems, I have locked down one of my four actors, I have sponsorship from Nippys. Callington Primary School seem happy to oblige and let us use their school.

The Bad- I do not have three of my actors, I heald only three auditions, I have had no calls from Actors Ink. SA Casting is still working on my project. Callington Council are feeling sketchy about letting me shoot there. The General Store is asking for money. I have no football oval. I have no catering at all.

The UGLY!- Callington Council are feeling sketchy about letting me shoot there. which could totally f me up.

he he isn't filming fun, still this is the most stressful time of the shoot other than actually shooting. Great.

Don't trust SA Casting. I've worked with them before (or at least tried to) and they're notoriously unreliable and conniving. Anne Peters is a walking superiority complex and especially difficult and snobbish if it's "just" a student film or amateur play.

Have you tried the other acting schools around the place? The unis, TAFE etc too? Maybe certain high schools.

Also, re: locations... be creative. Do you really NEED permission to shoot? :-D You could sneak onto a footy oval with a handheld... As for the General Store, there's more than one of those in existence. Try some stores in places in the Hills and such and promise they'll get credits and exposure from it.

Dude, you should call my sister again - if you want to, that is. Last I heard, she told me that you haven't called her back. Keep at it!
