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!

MMB update

Here's a picture of Thomas Christensen who has been hired to play the role of "MMB".
An important and demanding role. He'll pull it of. His first uformal audition went extreamly well!

He has previous acting experience from movies, commercials and theatre.

Crew member added #2

Ole-Petter Andersen will be our Firearms Supervisor. He provides the weapons that will be used, and keeps everyone safe from harm.

Crew member added

Maida Hals will join the crew as an assistant DP.
She will also do some work on the "making of.." documentary we're shooting for the DVD's extra material section.

She has a lot of experience and we are glad to have her on board the team. Check out the CREW section for more information.

More crew members will be added soon.

Dear vistors

MMB has finally been casted

Yet another role has been casted!! Thomas Christensen will play the role of MMB, we look forward to work with him. Photo will be posted shortly.

The schedule

We got a busy schedule ahead of us these days... starting off today with interviews for different sections, such as crew and castings. Later this month we`ll have a meeting with a consulant regarding the film itself. We both are looking forward to the meeting.

Otherwise, the storyboard ain`t completed yet, we`re working on it. Stay tuned for further news!

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!

Børre's message board

Let's try this.

Discuss "Børre", horror movies, DVD's, music, do some shameless promotion and tell us about your film. Tip us of good or bad horror flicks. It's your call. Miss a topic or two?

It's an experiment. Check it out!

Maybe it will work out..

Want a part in the film?

Our lead actress would play the part of Barbra, who`s around 25 yrs old, she speaks norwegian fluantly (dialect doesnt really matter) She`s scandinavian, got natural look with half long hair. She`s the one Børre falls in love with. Are you the one who can portray Barbra? Send us an email. Picture prefered.

More information about the part's HERE

Shotgun

This shotgun will be used in our film.

Original stories

You can now read the original scripts for "Avhøret" and "Mannen med Baggen". We have posted them as a slideshow HERE.

Keep in mind that they were written when we where about 20 years old, and that the movie "Børre" is only very loosely based on some of the characters.

We hope to be able to post the actual short movies very soon.

Unfortunately the scripts are only available in norwegian.
The movies will have english subtitles

New "lobby card" added

Check out more promo images here!

A wet dream

Canon XL H1
The camera Kim is drooling over. It's beautiful, sexy and mean!
We'll see if we can get a good price.














Look at some sample clips.

Giving some support to romance

Kim thinks this project looks really cool, so he gave a tiny fistfull of dollars to back it up. It was'nt much he could afford, but he got his name on the special thanks list on the website, and in the movies credits. That's cool enough for him!

Best of all, they credited kalkunregimet.com too!

Check out ROMANCE ROAD KILLERS !

Vi trenger deg!

Okay, dette innlegget blir på norsk, da vi er ute etter folk bosatt i Norge, og aller helst i Oslo og omegn.






Vi må snart starte oppbyggingen av et crew og få alle roller på plass.

Følgende roller må fylles:

Rolleliste
* = booket

I crewet er vi ute etter følgende:
- B-Foto
- Sminkør
- Spesial effekter (sminke/"splatter")
- Kostymeansvarlig
- Lys ansvarlig
- Lyd ansvarlig, opptak/post-produksjon
- Script
- Produksjonsassistenter (m/bil)
- Rekvistitør
- PR
- Foto/klipp av bakfilm
- Kreative altmulig mennesker med stå på vilje og guts.

Noe erfaring er ikke dumt :)

Minner om at dette er en ekstrem lavproduksjons film, og
du blir ikke rik av å være med på dette.
Du gjør det for å få erfaring, og hvem vet, kanskje to minutter i rampelyset.
No guts no glory!

Dette er et seriøst prosjekt, og vi vil ha seriøse mennesker som kan bidra til vår, og forhåpentligvis også din, drøm om å lage en film.
Har du noe å bidra med så hjelper alt fra lyspærer til jib'er.

Dette skal bli moro, men det vil nok ta tid.
Vi er i skrivende stund kun knappe 4 måneder inn i pre-produksjon, og det er ikke umulig at det kan ta et par år før du holder et rykende ferskt DVD eksemplar av "Børre" i hånden.

Nyskjerrig? Klar?

Send oss en mail.
producers@kalkunregimet.com

Vi ser frem til å treffe deg :)

Storyboarding scene 33

Finally, summer is here!

While everyone else is lazy, just frying they're winterpale skin in the sun, we draw ;)

Todays biggest challenge was to snap the photos. Our arms just did'nt reach far enough, and this was one of the "best" shots. At least we thought it turned out pretty funny.

Scene 33, one of the longest most detailed scenes in the movie, is almost done.

We got some CV's from people today. We'll look at them later. We're exited about that.

Have a nice weekend!

New video clip!

We just added a new video clip featuring pics and video from some of the places we got as locations. There's plenty of places we still have to find, but we'll add them to the video as soon as we got them.

Finally the snow is melting and everything's blossoming. Later we'll have to get back to some of the places we've only seen in the winter.
See if they still work out.

CLICK HERE FOR THE VIDEO.

Camouflaged location hunt

Our "super-secret" project is getting more and more locations each day. Kim does not want any attention from the locals, so it`s very important for him to keep a low profile, that`s why he is Camouflaged!

Makin' a cheap "Børre" T-shirt

Okay, let's see.. looks easy enough.


Maybe too much preassure? Uh..


The pic looks kinda cool.


I forgot the tagline! Cripes!


Not very happy with the result, but at least it's cheap.

In the woods

We did some hiking in the woods in Rælingen today.

Maybe we will use some of the surroundings in the film.
Shahbaz found something interesting in the water.
A baby doll maybe? (not to worry, you'll get it later)

Shahbaz almost fooled Kim into jumping unto a flat rock
in the water. Turned out to be some dirty piece of a rotten
wooden board.. that would have been cold! Brr.

We met "Børre"

We had a meeting with Pål Grinden today, in Lillestrøm.
It went really well and he's looking forward to the role.
We also snapped some new photo's to use for promotion material.

Pål at IMDb!

Another confirmed location

Some pics of where we'll shoot most of the scenes
featuring Børre, Barbra and Bosse at work.

First briefing with Eirik "Dr. Kronenberg" Norderud

We`ve just met our co-star Eirik Norderud, and delivered him the screenplay. As you know he will portray the role of Dr. Kronenberg. We talked about the project, and we are looking forward to work with him.



At this stage we are working on promo t-shirts and not to mention the storyboard.

Monday next week we are scheduled to meet our lead for BØRRE, Pål Grinden.

The storyboard

Today we started to draw the storyboard.
We scetched the first two scenes of the movie
and ended up with about 50 shots.

We have another 220 scenes in the movie, so there
will be plenty of drawing in the next few weeks.

Luckily we have no preassure yet.
We will post some of the storyboard in the
images section in the near future.

Keep watching this space!

Cast update

Here's finally a picture of
Sajjad Aynoddin in the role
of "Sajjad".

Synopsis

We have finally written a synopsis of the plot.
It was actually much harder than writing the screenplay.

Remember the old one? It was more like a bad tagline.
We think it's pretty cool so here we go!

A serial killer movie with a twist.

Børre is lonely. He scratches his balls. He smokes pot. He loves porn.
He hates his boss!
There is a killer on the loose. Their paths will cross ..
.. and all hell will break loose!

Check out the new synopsis here!

Some of today's location photo's!

2nd draft done.. for real!

OK, so we needed some more time to flesh it out but now it's done.
We ended up with 90 pages. It fits the 1 page=1 minute formula pretty well, but of course,
some pages are maybe more like 5-6 minuttes of film, while others are about 30 seconds.

All in all, we have ourself a movie! :)

We got some help on the swedish dialogue, and now we are going to pass the draft around to some people.
Our girlfriends, an author, some of the actors etc. to get opinions, and add them to the 3rd and final draft.
If we agree that is.

Tomorrow we are going to look for some locations featuring the subway, subway stations and more.
We will of course post pictures.

Next week we start with the storyboard.

Whatch this space dudes and dudettes!

S & K

2nd draft done!

Well, second draft of "BØRRE" is done. We have been fleshing out the main characters, and given them more personality.

R.I.P.

Lucio Fulci - March 13, 1996

First draft finished!

It's 83 pages total!

We're taking the week of to look at it individually.
When we meet again we'll start writing the second draft.
Hard work on the dialogue, fix the spelling and try to make
it even better.

Actually we're pretty satisfied and proud!

Some shameless bragging

Kim felt like posting some excellent reviews, her we go:

Fangoria message boards:

"Good luck with the film. If it gets a U.S. Distributor I'll check it out. Indy films outside the U.S. are getting pretty surprising."

"Great to see that Norways is in the business to!
Break a leg and I hope to see it soon on dvd everywhere!"

"That's a really good and interactive look. Good job."

"That has to be one of the most impressive looking websites I have seen. I'm really looking forward to seeing the movie! Great to see Norway creating horror! "

Gorezone message boards:

"Best of luck! I'm very interested in checking out the indie scene coming out of Norway."

Gjemmestedet forum:

"Dette må vi jo følge med på! Spennende! Ser gjerne at du holder oss oppdatert med poster her. Lykke til!"

"Dette var da ganske så tøft! Gratulerer med ny layout!"

Eirik Norderud will play the part of
Dr. Kronenberg
We're looking forward to working with him.

New location photo

This church will probably be featured somewhere in the movie.
We're supposed to go looking for external locations as soon as the snow is gone. But so far it has'nt stopped snowing, dammit!

Our website got a new look!

Check it out dudes and dudettes :)

New blog

We have updated the NEWS section blog.

Now the both of us can make new posts and edits.
All links in the post's are currently broken, but will be
updated when we have updated the site.

It been a slow period for us now, but we got another actor signed up.
More on that later. See ya!

Promo update

Two new teaser-posters are up in the images section!
Check them out here!

The Composer

Johnny Withnail Gonzales
is attached to compose some
of the music in the movie.

More info on that later.

And yeah, 51 pages of screenplay today.

Still going strong!

Script update

We now have 45 pages written of the first draft.
We're halfway home! (in the first draft that is)

The second draft will be easier. The dialogue?
..well, we'll work harder on that in the final draft.

So, what's it all about?

We will soon post the synopsis of the script.

Keep watching these pages!

"Prequel" posters

This is the posters for the two "prequels" :
"The Interrogation" and "The Man with the Bag".

Both of those short films will be featured, in one way
or another, in the movie "Børre". Keep an eye open!

"Sajjad" is cast!

Børre's friend Sajjad will be played by Sajjad Aynoddin.

A picture will be posted later.

Another "behind the scenes" clip

Some footage from this week.

We were writing on the screenplay and improvising some more dialogue.

It's still really bad, the dialogue.

"Hildur" is cast!

Karina Ofrim will play the role of "Hildur".
(The name will probably be changed).

We can't tell you to much about
this character, or what she will do.

Exclusive music-clip!

Welll, actually it's only a ringtone from a cellphone
that one of the characters will use.

Take a listen to it -> dildeewan

You will hopefully think it's funny when you see the movie.

page3_blog_entry32_1.mid

Script update

We have now written 30 pages.

A couple of new characters have been added, and some scenes has been moved around.
We hope to have about 90 pages of the first draft ready in a few weeks.

The chat-room

We just added a chatroom to the site.

Stop by if you like, and maybe you will meet one or both of us there.
It's a free chatroom, so there will be annoying ad's, and there can only
be 10 people there at the time, but that's probably enough.

We'll see how it works out.

Getting somewhere

We are now about ten pages into the
first draft of the screenplay.
It may not sound very impressive, but there's a lot of dialogue and scenes
that are pretty hard to describe.

None of us are professionals at this remember.

The two of us are having a good time never the less, and hope to finish the first draft in about a month.

In the second draft we will go on to the painstaking task of modifying the dialogue, which at this time is pretty bad, and extend some scenes. We have already done modifications to the short story, the rather long synopsis we wrote.

The second draft will be much more fun to write, filling in the holes.
This first draft is more like a scetch, a basis.

We''ll continue keeping you up to date as we progress.

*The next script update will be published by the end of this week.

Promotion

Don't forget to check out our IMAGES section!

Here we will publish promo material, behind the scenes photographs,

The first few pages

"Female jogger" is cast!

Anita Linnerud will portrait the jogger
and she will also take care of the coreography of some sequences in the movie.

Anita is a Tae Kwon Do, Kick Boxing and Thai Boxing expert.

Writing the first draft

We have now sharpened our pencils, and tomorrow we start to write the first draft of the screenplay.

The six page story on which it's based are now ready, after our test panel has made their remarks.

Some changes had to be done, but here we go!

"The Boss" is cast!

Mats Spång will play Børre's
nasty swedish boss.

He's looking forward to portraying the character, and we are looking forward to his performance. It will be great!

Thank's Mats!

Soundtrack

Screwed sent us their EP Between the Pure.

We will listen to it and have it under consideration.
Adding music is still pretty far into the future, put please send us your stuff, whatever stuff that may be.

We do appreciate it!

Børre is cast!

This is the guy who will portrait "Børre"!

His name is Pål Grinden, and he is 32 years old. A few years ago he had a lead role in Kalkunterror's Killer project, but it never got finished.
That will not happen this time!



He played the hero in the norwegian
"Kebab Western" A Fistful of Kebab.

Check out the website for his band - Joe Sparky!

*Update - Cosmopolite

Cosmopolite's beautiful re-designed website is now online.

Location #1 - Cosmopolite

Our deepest gratitude goes to Ania and Miloud, the owner's of Norway's best scene for Jazz, World Music and more! Cosmopolite.
They gave us the greenlight to shoot some key scenes in the movie on their premises, and the place looks great!

Please visit their re-designed website at www.cosmopolite.no and check out their great concert line-up and more!
(it may not be online yet when this is written, but we will tell you when it is.)

Update on Gorezone.net!

The link is fixed! Thanks again Gorezone!

Behind the Scenes

An exclusive look at the brainstorming
+ a look at one of the locations
from the movie.

The movie is still in pre-production.

Check-out the video section.

Our first setback! Probably not the last..

We failed to get a permission to shoot at one of the locations we wanted.

Our contact person, Mats, did what he could, but it just was not possible.
Now we must rewrite some parts of the script. But there is no real crisis.

We will have to come up with a different location to shoot Børre's workplace.

The tagline!

A serial killer movie with a twist.

Børre is lonely. He scratches his balls. He smokes pot. He loves porn.
He hates his boss!
There is a killer on the loose. Their paths will cross ..
.. and all hell will break loose!
