Getting ready for the film fests

Truly Free Film has a great To Do list for filmmakers getting ready to enter into film fests. Note that Number 3 is to have a blog.

Yeah, we're pretty ahead of the curve.

Generally though, Bernardo and I have done some of these things others are in some stage of development, and some we need to get on quick. It's a good list.

Most importantly: the film itself; yes, ladies and gentlemen, Flunky is even closer now to being ready to be shown publicly. That's because Bernardo has been locked into an editing suiteshaping the final product.

He has been doing a killer job editing everything together. His creative touch has added layers, depth, and overall sexiness to a short film that was already stacked with sexiness and pitchblack humour.

Is it ready yet? No, it is not.

But we are starting to be able to make out that light at the end of the tunnel. That light is of course, coming from a projector booth, and when we get to that light Flunky will be projected onto screens, walls, hearts, minds and ..uh, whatever else is around.

Making History

The film is taxiing down the runway. The passengers (and the pilot!, and the crew) are all excited for the long dangerous journey into cinema history.

Flunky may not go down in Capital 'C' Cinema history. But it is an historical project. For me as writer and actor, certainly. And for the others as well. It's a big deal. And hopefully, it will all come together and be brilliant and thought-provoking. It will certainly be a learning experience.

Did I mention the part where we are just two days away from invading the office location and kicking holes in the walls and painting shit and moving shit to places it doesn't belong and basically swinging our dicks around like a big-shot Hollywood production? I didn't? OK. Fine. That last part isn't true anyway. But the first part is.
