HI JUST A UPDATE ABOUT ME & MY LITTLE FILM PLANS.
FIRST OF ALL FOR ANYONE READING THIS I HAVE NEVER MADE A FILM BEFORE.
APART FROM A 15MIN 16MM FILM THAT I MADE WITH SCHOOL FRIENDS BACK IN 1981 CALLED
"TICK TOCK"
SO WHY SHOULD I BE ANY GOOD AT WRITING & DIRECTING A MOVIE??
WELL IF IT HAPPENS NEXT YEAR I MIGHT MAKE A TOTAL ARSE OF IT(HA-HA)
I LOVE MOVIES & IT,S MEGA HARD TO GET A SMALL FILM OFF THE GROUND BUT YOU JUST HAVE TO KEEP AT IT & NOT COMPLAIN, I HATE PEOPLE WHO MOAN ABOUT THEY CAN,T GET THE BUDGET ETC,
SO HERE'S WHATS HAPPENING AS OF NOW REF MY SCRIPT
"DEATH AFTER DARK" IT,S IN PIECES & IS GETTING PUT BACK TOGETHER BIT BY BIT ..
THERE WILL BE A WEBSITE COMING NEXT SOON WITH THE PLOT & HOW PEOPLE CAN GET INVOLVED ETC.
I HOPE TO MAKE A MOVIE THAT CREEPS PEOPLE OUT (BOO) :-)
I HAVE THE FOLLOWING THINGS IN PLACE FOR THE FILM:-
1. TV CENTER TO USE IN THE FILM.
2. ACCESS & USE OF CAMERA,S LIGHTS/SOUND/EDITING EQUIPMENT ETC.
3. MY LOCAL CHURCH TO USE IN THE FILM & THE VICAR AS HIMSELF.
(HE SAY,S WE CAN HAVE FREE HOLY WATER),IT MIGHT COME IN HANDY HA-HA-HA.
4. LOCAL SUPERMARKET TO USE IN FILM.(75%)
5. SOME T.V. COVERAGE NEXT YEAR ON LOCATION IN WHITBY.(75%)
6. A SMALL BUDGET TO COVER, FOOD/DRINKS & HOTELS ETC FOR ALL LOCATION WORK.
7. A COPYRIGHT TO USE A FAMOUS SONG FOR THE END TITLES.
8. I,M DOING THE FILM SCORE (100%) LOL:-)
SO HOW AM I MAKING THIS HAPPEN WITH OUT ££££/$$$$ ?????
WELL I,M USING ALOT OF MY SAVINGS ETC TO GIVE ME THE TIME TO GET THINGS UP & RUNNING.
I DON,T WANT TO BECOME SOME RICH "DICK HEAD" MOVIE DIRECTOR,I JUST WANT TO TRY & MAKE MOVIES.
EVERYONE SEEMS TO HAVE A BLUE PRINT ABOUT HOW TO FINANCE A FILM, I,M JUST DOING THINGS MY WAY:-)
SO HERE'S MY PLAN:- I DON,T WANT ANY ££££/$$$$ FROM ANYONE, JUST THERE HELP BECAUSE THIS MOVIE IS FOR "CHARITY"
ONLY GET INVOLVED IF YOU WANT TO HELP & EVERYONE IN IT WILL BE PLAYING THEMSELVES.
ALL THE CHARACTERS IN IT ARE PEOPLE I KNOW ETC & I HOPE THAT WILL MAKE IT ULTRA REALISTIC , YES I,M MAD:-)
60% OF ANY MONEY MADE FROM IT WILL GO TO CHARITY & 40% TO PEOPLE INVOLVED & IF THEY WANT THEY CAN GIVE IT TO CHARITY ????
I,VE ALREADY BEEN SLAGGED OFF BY SOMEONE IN THE FILM PRESS. SAYING I,M USING CHARITY TO FORWARD MY MOVIE CAREER,WELL THIS IS COMING FROM SOMEONE WHO MAKES SHIT LOADS OF MONEY & HAS NEVER MADE A MOVIE IN HIS LIFE. SO HE CAN GO F*CK HIMSELF:-)
YES I WOULD LOVE TO MAKE MOVIES FOR A LIVING,BUT I,M NOT USING CHARITY TO FORWARD MY CAREER.
I,M DOING A "BOB(LIVE AID) GELDOF" WITH A NEWCASTLE ACCENT (HA-HA) & IT,S WORKING SLOWLY, PEOPLE ARE GETTING INVOLVED ETC.
MY MOVIE IDEA HAS BEEN KICKING AROUND FOR YEARS & I HAVE JUST WORKED OUT AT THE AGE OF 43 THAT YES IF YOU WANT TO MAKE A MOVIE, HAVE A GO, IT MIGHT TURN OUT O.K.
I NEVER THOUGHT I COULD MAKE A FILM, BUT AFTER WATCHING SOME LARGE BUDGET (SHIT) MODERN HORROR FLICKS THAT MAKE LOADS OF $$$$ AT THE BOX OFFICE & ARE NOT SCARY,I NOW THINK DIFFERENT.
I WANT TO THANK "DAVE BAKER" WHO HAS WRITTEN , DIRECTED, & ACTED IN TWO MOVIES(WOW)
HE,S A GREAT GUY WITH A PASSION TO MAKE MOVIES & WATCHING HIS FLICKS ETC, HAS GIVEN ME THE CONFIDENCE TO HAVE A GO.
CHECK OUT HIS WEBSITES :-

HE,S A MAN WITH A PLAN.
ALSO I,M PLANING TO DO A DRIVE-IN /CINEMA HORROR NIGHT AT THE GATESHEAD "METRO CENTER" OR AT THE TYNESIDE CINEMA IN NEWCASTLE FOR " BBC CHILDREN IN NEED"
ALL THE MOVIES WILL BE COOL CLASSIC HORROR MOVIES ,CERT X (18) & ALL MONEY MADE WILL GO TO THE CHARITY.
BBC WEBSITE COMING SOON:-)

Thanks for the VERY kind positive feedback mate. I am flattered by the fact that I can influence for the positive.
ReplyDeleteI wish you all the best with your film. And yes, it doesn't matter if you mess it up. Its more important to "do it" and learn from that.
I am sure you will do great though. Will watch out for your updates and give them a shout.
cheers my friend.
David

ReplyDeleteIt's not clear to me how I can star as myself in your film, if you're shooting it in the UK....
