Glidecam demo

If you don't know what a Glidecam is, watch this film.
It was shot with a Glidecam 2000 pro with no Smooth Shooter.

We will post our own footage when the rig is balanced properly.

The surprise!


Kim with the latest posession; a Glidecam 4000 pro + the Glidecam Smooth Shooter.

The Glidecam is the same as a Steadicam. Different name is all.

That's the big surprise, hope you like it!

.. well, there is actually a few more cool things coming.

Keep watching this space for the goods.

Comitted actor wanted!

Thomas Christensen dropped out of the movie today.

We are looking for a new actor to play his part.
It's a small but very important part, and challenging both mentaly and physically.
Contact us for more information at producers@kalkunregimet.com

PS!
The character smokes. You must be able and willing to smoke, even if you're not a smoker in real life. This is very important.

We wish Thomas good luck.

Latest updates

We are behind the schedule.

Today we did some much needed rewrites in the script, again, and looked at some showreels.
We will be talking to an actor about the Børre part in a few days.

The movie will most likely be shot with a Panasonic HVX200 camera in DV (can't afford to shoot in HD this time), using a Redrock M2 adapter with various Nikon lenses. More info and pictures of the rig when we got it.

There's about 29 pages left of the script to storyboard.
We'll try to get back on schedule, and have some more news for you, preferably good, later.

PS!
If you are somewhat connected to the project. Please subscribe to this blog at the right side of the screen.
You will then be kept up to date. Everybody else is also free to subscribe if you want to keep up with the project.

Later,
K&S

This week

The past week has been spent mostly drawing at the storyboard.
We are now working at page 66 in the script, 29 pages to go.

Thursday we met up with Thomas Christensen to talk more about his character, discuss some issues regarding the script etc.

Friday we had two more chats with Veslemøy Mørkrid (Barbra)and Eirik Norderud (Dr. Kronenberg).
We discussed their parts and gave them some more information regarding principal photograpy, costumes etc.
Veslemøy had some good tips for us regarding how actors think, and how they get into their roles. Very usefull.
Eirik had good ideas regarding his characters look and dialogue.

Look out for Veslemøy in the comedy "Høy på Landet" in the Usett series at NRK in November. We'll post details later.

Some scenes look different, sometimes "nastier" written, than what we really are after, so we brought the storyboard to
show what we really are after. We don't want to scare anyone away from us :)

We will do some more editing in the script. Some scenes and dialogue is to internal, and will have to go.
There would maybe be ten people laughing, and the rest would only be put off by it.

Some scenes will also change places in the script.

We are getting closer each day.

some news

After Pål dropped out the project, Kim and i had a lot of thinking to do. Finally it looks like we`ve found his replacement. But nothing confirmed yet. Most likely next week we`ll know.

Storyboard is going great, we are happy to announce that we have finished drawing 2 murderscenes :) We should complete the drawings within two weeks, which mean hard work.
