Interesting meeting today

We met up with Morgan Davidsen today at The Broker.He is an actor/film maker with education/experience from the american television/movie industry. He had some great advice for us concerning acting, and directing actors. How to audition, test shoot dialogue etc. He also gave us some new ideas concerning the "Børre" character.

We'll pass him the script next week and talk to him some more later. More about him and what he can help us out with later.

We did no more work today. Have a nice weekend!

Rewrites

We have som major rewrites to do. After we decided to drop the "Ida" character, we encountered some problems. We had to change some transitions and find different places for another character to appear. Luckily, while doing this, we also discovered some plot faults at other places. We have most of them figured out and we'll probably be done by Monday or Tuesday next week.
The sad part is that we had to drop some great visual scenes. But they just did'nt work out with the rest of the story. We still have a lot of great visual sequences though.
We're going for a really great audio/visual experience on this movie.Besides a great story, amazing actin, music etc. Yeah, we're ambitious!

In the middle of writing we met, as mentioned yesterday, an actress considered for the part of "Barbra". We have a few to decide among, but we'll make a decition this weekend. It will be our secret until posted. Stay tuned!

.. the we had a few beers and relaxed after ten hours of work.

New look for the menu screen

Since the previous screen was based on a scene featuring the now deleted "Ida" character, we decided to change it.
Instead, you now have Børre staring sceptically at you while you decide where to go. Enjoy!

Todays talk

As mentioned yesterday, we had a talk with Turid at mediefabrikken today.

She had some comments on the script, and we decided as mentioned, to drop the Ida character from the story. Tomorrow we have som major rewrites to do. Though the character only appears in three scenes, we will need to change or drop, some other scenes. We'll figure it out and have the script ready in a few days.

Turid was really helpfull and she offered us some very good and much needed help along the way. We will get back to her when we have finished the storyboards, and talk about what to do next. Thanks so far Turid!

Tomorrow we will meet an actress at Parkteateret and talk about the Barbra part. We'll keep you posted!

IDA dropped from the script!

Yeah, that's right! We have decided to drop IDA from our script. The role did'nt fit in at all. The character had nothing to do with the rest, and it kinda distracted the other characters. It was a hard decision, but it had to be done. We had som cool, really cool, scenes with the IDA character in the script, even in the storyboard. Sad, but true.

As usual there are some decisions to be made during the whole process, and we have decided.

Stay tuned for further news.

Latest updates

Okay, so we have been a little slow in keeping you up to date in the pashttp://www.blogger.com/img/gl.link.gift few weeks.

The same day we cast Thomas Christensen for the part of "M.M.B.", we also interviewed two people for the crew.
We will give you their names when we decide if we go with them or not, and after we decide their exact part in the crew.
One of them was really interessted in being an assistant director, or script, production assistant. He had some experience from short movies, and also a feature lenght film. The other is a costume designer/interior desighttp://www.blogger.com/img/gl.link.gifner with experience from the theatre etc. She had some really inspiring works to show us a week later.

Last Monday we met Øystein Rabbe. He has knowledge about Adobe After Effects, and he will do some test graphics later to show us what magic he can do with some "simple" CGI. The movie won't hav a lot of it. We'll meet him later, when we have shot some test footage involving a shotgun and a coin. We have posted some pics of the shotgun for those of you interested in firearms.

Pictures/info of more crew members will be posted soon.

Tomorrow we will talk about the script with Turid Marthinsen at Mediefabrikken, and then we will finish writing the final draft of the script. Phew!
Everybody involved so far will finally get a fresh copy. More information about how the meeting went will be posted later this week.

Johnny Withnail Gonzales was in the studio this weekend, recording some music. We will take a listen to that later.
Freddy Groth, nephew of well known norwegian musician Jan Groth, will also try to compose some music in July, after reading the script.

We also got contacted by an actor with a lot of experience from american television among other things. He even had a role in the hit tv series Six Feet Under. We will talk to him later and see what he can help us with. Unfortinately we do'nt have a part that fits him. We'll see what happens. Also, this week, we had a little setback. An actress (Izzat mm.) we where auditioning for the part of Barbra, the leading lady, got a better offer. A paid offer. She looked very good for the part, and we had a good feeling about her. Well, we don't blame her for taking the other job and wish her the best of luck! Maybe next time. We will possibly meet another actress later this week.

Regards to Carl B. Elmore Jr. for taking further interest in the movie. That's appreciated deeply. We'll get back to you.

That's about it. Oh yeah, we will be making a teaser soon.. keep watching this space!

Down by the river

Kim and his nutty little dog went looking at some possible locations this weekend. They found a really nice spot by the river

Barbra needed!

Currently we`re looking for a norwegian female who can portray our character Barbra, she`s our lead female of approax 25 yrs old, a character whom Børre falls in love with. She`s drop dead gorgeous.

If you`re the one, please don`t hesitate and email us.
It's a big part and demands some acting experience.

Final draft!

The final draft of the script got finished today! 97 pages!
Okay, we'll probably change something during the shoot, or sooner.
But as for now, it's done.

'nice day all!
