I'm fairly positive we're going to be renting all of our gear for this, whether it be from a rental house or an individual. It's hard to say at this point. If I had my way, we'd be shooting HD on the Varicam with a 5-ton grip package.

But right now until we get the budget situation hammered out, it's going to be hard to present numbers to anyone.

Are you looking to telecine it to film for wide release? If not, what was wrong with the HVX? The varicam is super sweet. I'd love to shoot something with it, but no way I could afford the rental even for one of my shorts, much less a feature.

You guys gonna get a real audio crew? Thats the one other thing you really have to splurge on. Especially if you're doing motion or walking or what not.

What about foley?

You gonna have to do any ADR? Its been my experience that actors/actresses have to be pretty damn good to do convincing adr. Plus you gotta have a studio just for that.

I'm interested in your progress. I'm starting another short myself this month and its always both exciting, terrifying and exhausting.

The crew will be a professional Atlanta crew. (With the exception of Steve Murphy and the people we bring from LA.) We're working with top-notch post facilities. Since there's a big chunk of sports in this, ADR will almost certainly be part of the process.

I've been showing all my friends the teaser. I'm not sure how it helps but at least "blood fucking" has become a catchphrase among us.

Well it was her first time.

Here's hoping you guys pull off a good movie. Also you should try and cast Lemmy from Motorhead in it, he should be in every movie.

This thread is sleepy.

I think we're all still reeling from the suggestion of featuring Lemmy from Motorhead.

Believe it or not, I've actually told various customers who rent Benchwarmers that my "good friend" is making a softball movie called 11 Colonials Attack! that blows Benchwarmers out of the water.

They never give a shit, but at least I'm getting the name out there.

Is that the sequel we're doing set during the Revolutionary War?

Well how goes the budget quest? Have you guys started getting any footage?

Worst comes to worst I really think you could do this on the DVX or HVX and put out a great product.

And you thought you could keep the details of the sequels under wraps.

In other news, my terrible spelling is really becoming an entity of it's own.

My manager is having some meetings with studios this week. I just submitted a brand new draft which I think really cleans up some stuff and makes it a little better. Plus there's some new jokes I like. Oh, and I gave Matchstick a line about his bruised semen heading into space.

We need to make this on a larger budget because frankly, with the actors and FX people we have, we can't NOT use them.

Beware...I saw what it did to Barbara Hershey.

The good thing is you have the acting and crew talent attached. This will give you guys a tiny step up when you show it to studios. The part against you is that it is an unusual concept. We know how studio execs generally react to that. Hopefully since you don't need 20 million to do this it won't be that big a deal.

The Lemmy suggestion was done while I was probably drunk. Everything seems like a good idea when you're drunk like making dirty phones calls to my friends mom.

But what I'd like to know is what you're doing music wise, is it gonna be composed or are you gonna use actual songs.
post #66 of 73
Nick has the skills and the men (including the sexy Micah Robinson) to do the music on his own, easily.

The tiny bit I've heard sounds really fucking good.

But dammit Nick - I want some Damascus stuff already! GEEZ!

Tease is right. Joe Moneybags and his pals would be stupid not to finance this. If the script is getting even better I do not see how it won't be hilarious.

This may be inaccurate and even a little insulting but I think Compost Larry looks a lot like a young Ted Danson, take it as you will. Surely there are more noble quests for whichever of you invented a time machine than trying to bolster Ted Danson's career, although if I try to think of any changes one could make without causing a time paradox, Ted Danson is a safe choice.

For your perusal:


In all seriousness, this looks like a lot of fun. Further News awaited; eagerly.
