Hey Craig! It may well be the case that you'll be busy with other projects, but I thought I'd make you aware of the initial 'feeling things out/early days' phase for the next MM production. You can view the post on the discussion forum by clicking here. I should be boring and stress that no immediate action is planned, and that this is just me trying to gauge interest levels. Cheers!
Hey man, I'm good, and yourself? Just having a week or two away from everything and clearing my head. Been a weird month so fancied a break. Still checking MM most days of course! ;) What you been up to?
Hey Craig! In late May/early June I would like to work on a short series called "The Oddities." Each mini episode would:
- Be a few minutes long.
- Contain one single character.
- Tell a memorable story via monologue.
- Be a chance for the actor to create/perform a character interesting to them.
- Be a chance for the filmmaker to create some beautiful shots.
And that's it, really. A different actor each episode. Interested?! :D
CRAIG!!! I'm just really, really tired - I don't think I've ever had a busier month in my entire life, and the worst is yet to come! I'm thinking of taking up cocaine to get me through the days... just kidding. It's all been good fun, and all revolving around filming! Mostly.
How have you been getting on? I saw your post on the '2009' thread - anything specific you have in mind to launch yourself back into things? Once February rolls around I'll have my major project to get stuck into. Scare Propaganda, 2012, New World Order, sex education, chemicals in foods, religious scare mongering... all that good shit, crammed into fifteen minutes. What is scare propaganda, why is it used, and against whom?!
I bought the 'Night Is Day' DVD and am watching through it just now.
Any luck with that actor yet, Mr Talent Scout? Hehe! We're having a production meeting tonight, see, would be nice if I have something to report to the troops. But don't worry if haven't be able to find anyone, we're all on the hunt for someone :)
Hey mate. Yeah, been good. Working away on getting ideas in a good condition scriptwise. Will keep you posted on developments. What have you been up to of late?
How you doin, havent seen you in a while - think the last time was at McLeishe's at the end of Aug.
An idea I've got floating found my currenlty flu ridden brain box is that of two brothers (one jaded and cold but fundamentally good - the other young, nieve and misguided) who are bitter rvals. The death of their (coniving) father forces a reconciliation. It is virtually voice over. Could picture you doing the part of the older brother. Still early days and the script still needs tweeking but want you to know you were one of the folk in the back of my mind when I began writing.
Yeh, met some Stevenson NQ Media folk on Friday and they said this seemed a good way to try and get collaboration going between different creative people...
I'm working on another wee script of 'Tipulidae' length and standard. The main character is an isolated, failing, and slightly psychotic actor; paranoid about the size and shape of his ears (we may have to fit prosthetic ears on you!) Anyway, after various failed rejections due to his hammy acting and large ears, he decides to chop his ears off and see if his career progresses in a more positive fashion. Ideally you'd have dark hair, slicked back and very smarmy. Speaking constantly in a very actorish, dramatic way. So yeah, keep it in your thoughts lol.
