day one of the movie 27 days to go !!

Me Dom gary and Ed meet up in a cafe in beckenham , we went over the whole story and it kept changing form simple to extreme , we must remember its a b movie and not a epic but its hard to make it simple when you have a room full of creative people
so we wrote up a great idea but it turned into a documentry style movie which we cant really do from the theme and title and story , so where have to re think the whole idea and try to make it simple again 27 days to go and where no better off than when we started !! the story we got we have to go with to a degree
how strange things happen an old friend i meet in the cannes film festival kill bill party in 2005 who was making a pirates movie contacted me about lending me his new RED camera for some of the shoot and his xdcam or P2 man now ive got all the gear no ideas
having another production meeting tomo will try to get the idea in the bag , what we have got to do is write a list of props locations we can get hold of and go from there
when i made my 1st feature film i wrote in what i had avalible to be a landrover and a gorrilla costume and a forrest in bromley !! and two actors who where perfect for the part as documentry directors in the movie ,i had my movie i then wrote the script in 9 hours and used it as the shooting script which i used as a template
for the movie and shot it in sequence over four weekends due to time frame
so ill try to do it again on this movie but make it more simple story 1st
the rest will follow i hope , got to make it simple and edit in camera style or edit same day after the shoot to save time , 27 days is not as long as you think when
people work all day plus your asking for everyones help for free
shooting at night and weekends is all we have got , got to get the story and schedule done tomo whatever it takes or we will be pushing it to shoot anything this weekend
