Short Film
So my friend and I were fortunate enough to be selected to participate in the Atlantic Filmmaker’s Cooperative FILM 5 program. Basically we were competing with 7 other teams of writer/director/producers to get our 5 minute short film made. We’re given a modest cash budget and access to equipment we wouldn’t normally get, as well as a chance to shoot on 35mm film (super 35mm film I hope!). A link to the program is here: http://afcoop.ca/programs-and-training/film-5/
So now we’re crewing up and casting. Which is gonna be a challenge, but I love a challenge. We’re looking for a kick-ass young boy around thirteen to play the main character in the short. The search has already begun! In the mean time my producer and I are going to be making weekly production videos documenting our progress and slow descent into insanity (and maybe gory battles). We’re posting these videos on our facebook page here: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Deep-End-Short-Film/166710150047579?ref=ts
Also, you can follow us on twitter under the moniker @deependfilm, to keep up with all of our madness!
And if you’re super keen on finding out more please visit our project page on indiegogo (http://www.indiegogo.com/Deep-End)! It has all the facts and figures and things you need to know about Deep End! You can also donate a few bucks if you can spare them. Any money goes to paying our crew and helping us get the best post production process possible. If you still wanna help out and are strapped for the almighty dollar, then please just spread the word to anyone you think would be interested. The more people that know about our film the better!
And now I have to go hunt down a peanut butter sandwich to eat.
Yours and mine,
B.
