So Happy

So happy to finally have the cast all picked out and on board for this film. I now officially have everyone down and set to go. Now all I have left to do is to finalize all the locations and make a schedule for shooting. After that I have to get on my director grind and then storyboard all the shots out. Making that leap is going to be hard...from producer to director. If I screw up then that is going to make the film disastrous, which I don't think is going to happen but I have to stay confident and calm in my abilities. Otherwise it looks like another long weekend for me at work 12 hour shift tomorrow then 8 to 3 Sunday, I might try to stay a little bit later to get some more money but who knows. I hate working so much but I have to do it in order to be ready for the heavy financial burden of this film. It is crazy how all these hours at work will be washed away in a manner of two weekends of filming. But it is going to worth it when I am all done...you will see. Sorry if I have not been putting up the greatest of content on here, I will have an experimental film and a ton of pictures once my Canon 5D Mark III comes in, just a matter of days.

Thanks for the support,

Biggest Location Secure

So after about a week and a half of ups and downs when it comes to finding locations today I was able to secure my first one at the Edgemere Fire Hall on April 22nd. This location is going to be used for the prom scene which is the last scene in the film, it is also the biggest one. I am hoping to have at least one hundred extras for the scene and anything less or more than would still be great but 100 is the number I am going for. Now that I have gotten that location down I am going to move onto how to dress the set as well as what supplies I need for the scene. It was 460 to rent the hall so I am hoping this will not turn into a bust as this is the most amount of money I have ever spent at one time on a film set. Wish me luck with this.

Anyone interested in being an extra on April 22nd at the Edgemere Volunteer Fire Hall should email me at mind_confided@yahoo.com. There will be free food and drinks as well as free parking.

Thanks for the support,
