| So You Wanna make a Film but you're losing your head right now because everything is falling apart! | |||||||||||||||
| That's what I've been saying into the mirror every morning for almost two months. If you may or may not know I have taken up independent film making as a sort of hobbie. My next project "The Methuselah," is suppose to be my big break out horror film. It's a lot longer then the last two shorts I did, and it also requires a lot of special effects that I haven't done in the other films. I've been doing a lot of the research and development with various make up kits and latex material and so far I've probably spent almost $300 (which is pretty high for a no budget film...since no budget means no money.) Everything should run pretty smooth when we reach the shoot date....there in lies the problem. I've been having problems getting actual actors and actresses to commit to the film. People saw my last film "Why didn't you send it" ( you can see it by clicking here), pretty much came up to me and said "Hey Clyde can I be in your next film?" I of course always wanting to produce a film that required more than three people said yes. Great I have a cast...cool....hip hip hooray....peachy keen. Yeah right. Now I don't know what drives a person to say one thing and do another, (politicians do it all the time) but when I usually say I'm going to do something I usually do it. Other times when I don't want to do things I usually SAY IT! I say things I don't want to do. If there is something I don't want to do, I voice my opinion. If some of you are still having a hard time what I'm trying to say "I usually say something if I don't want to do a certain thing." I know I'm losing some of you people out there so let me illustrate an example below with a short skit. Barry: Hi Clyde, hey you want to throw rocks at innocent children? Clyde: No Barry, I don't believe in throwing rocks at innocent children. I think it's bad karma. Barry: Really, well F--- you and F--- your karma because I'm throwing rocks at kids. Clyde: Ok Barry have fun. You see how that works? I didn't want to throw rocks at kids so I said somthing about it. Granted it may sound fun to use mindless violence, but it doesn't mean you should always give into those feelings. Also I probably should have stopped Barry if he was really going to throw rocks at children. So for the millions of you people out there who volunteer to be in a movie, say you will attend a concert or even go to church and don't agree with some of the things a pastor says, then by all means do something about it. Voice an opinion. Build a website, write articles and link to another website that either agrees or disagrees with some of the things you have to say. For Godsake don't procrastinate, get up and say "I'm Mad as Hell and I won't take it anymore!" On a lighter note I would like to thank all the people who are sticking with the film even though we have been going through some production delays. I won't mention any names but you know who you are. You guys are the greatest. |
