PRODUCTION DIARY:

12/02/08
Mike is working on the poster and I am confident it will be the shizzle. I am trying to finish my scriptfest entry so I will be busy working on that.

12/01/08
Got the final draft of the script nailed down. Have one of two locations nailed down. Off to start pre-production. Off like a heard of wild snails.

11/30/08
Waiting for final draft of script to begin the next phase of pre-production..

11/29/08
John Labonney has also agreed to come help out as much as his schedule will allow. (Thanks John).

11/28/08
ISO cool sound designer who will work for cheese and crackers...

11/27/08
Still need a cool park location for the shoot. Jason Sanders has graciously offered his apartment for the main location. (Thanks Jason)

11/26/08
Justin Durban is in as composer.
Yeah...

11/25/08
Exchanged emails with Neelam and see is all on board (thanks to Alex Whitmer).

11/24/08
Mike Manning is helping me polish up my poster and banner. It should be up soon. I am still searching for someone to do sound design for this one. If you are interested in doing it for credit and have your own equipment that would be awesome PM me and I will shoot you the script so you can decide. Other then that I am just trying to get the finalized draft and start pre production.

11/23/08
Went down to Santa Monica today and meet up with a director that is a long time friend of mine from Denmark. We talked about the script and my ideas and he seemed to like them. I also scouted some beach front parks while I was there. Took some pictures and realized after walking a couple of miles that ;
1. I am out of shape.
2. Someday I want to move near the ocean.
3. I should just grab a sign and a cup and I could probably fund this bad boy within a couple of weeks of begging for money.
4. And finally I could shoot there without a permit for sure. There must have been about ten different teams down there shooting during the time we were there.

11/22/08
So I do believe I got a yes from Durban to score this sucka so I just need a really good sound guy and away we go...Anyone wanna jump aboard the crazy train?

11/21/08
After much thought and the realization that I don't have a powerful enough mac to edit RED footage I have opted to shoot on HVX which won't be a lot different then shooting on DVX it will just look better. So that being said I would love to help out with a project shooting on RED just for the experience sometime. I am looking for locations and hopefully will have them locked soon. Anybody have a cool bachelor apartment in LA they would like a movie shot in?

11/20/08
Trying to get the crew set up and make sure we all have our roles set and know who is doing what. I also got good news from Alex Whitmer and have cast Neelam Singh for the female lead. Tom Marshall has agreed to play the male lead. Now it is just a matter of poster and banner art which Mike Manning has offered his talents too. I am probably forgetting a bunch of stuff but I will post again.

11/19/08
First draft of script is awesome. Started casting roles today also. Hoping to shoot this one on RED if anyone would like to get on board that has one...Otherwise the old DVX100's it shall be.

Very cool Pauly. Looking forward to the entry. By the sounds of it - you are going to have a hell of a LA crew.

[pauly_the_hitman]

Very cool Pauly. Looking forward to the entry. By the sounds of it - you are going to have a hell of a LA crew.

Thanks Matty,
I hope so the last fest was really stressful and I am not about to repeat that mistake again. I learned exactly what I can and can't do when it comes to post production and with as many talented people that we have in and around our area this should rock...
Pauly

[Jason Sanders]

Yeah... the whole state is on fire...damn right it's warmer!:):beer:

[pauly_the_hitman]

Thanks guys I am all over this one. I am hoping to get better and better each fest and just keep growing as a filmmaker. I have got to get this one done a lot faster this time no more last minute BS that sucked. So that being said I thank everyone for their support and I am always here to help as well as learn.
Pauly

[Tom Marshall]

[Rodney V. Smith]

[pauly_the_hitman]

Pauly

[ZFarms Productions]

[stinkpot]

This will be a popular thread I'm sure! Can't wait to see what you bring man!

[GrizzlyGuy]

I love the title, Pauly. Good luck!

[Mile Bozicevic]

Hey don't go under 5 films this time. :grin:

Good luck, I think you'll kick some autt and bass this time.

[majikfraug]

Already casting and I haven't even read the script yet :( Way to keep a brother informed.

[pauly_the_hitman]

Already casting and I haven't even read the script yet :( Way to keep a brother informed.

Sorry man it just all happened so fast I couldn't contain it and I have been having some health issues and of course I suffer from Delusions of Grandeur, so I apologize in advance. That aside I gotta tell you it is coming together fast so hold on tight, and come along for the ride.
Pauly

[majikfraug]

Oh, I'm in. Never doubt that :) I just read the script too. Very nice, but I don't think you need a RED to make it work. Not that I would complain if you ended up with one :)
Oh do you have a set decorator yet? Lisa would be interested, if you don't. -Actually, she could probably do the entire Art Design. Lemme know.

[Susanne G.]

Hi Pauly,

I hope you will make first your film this time before you will help all your brothers and please let yourself enough time for a score, so I could give you 10 stars! :Drogar-Love(DBG): Very much luck and I am looking really forward to this one.

[Mark Johnson]

Hey Tommy. When are you gonna make a film?

[Tom Marshall]

I gave up the filmmaking thing a while ago. I'm only focusing on acting. :thumbup:

[Mark Johnson]

Oh, I didn't realize you gave it up. That's cool, though. Really enjoyed watching you in Pauly's last one.

[Tom Marshall]

Thanks :)

[Richard J. Johnson]

Welcome back Pauly! looks like you mean business

[pauly_the_hitman]

Yeah man I am going to make sure I have everything I need this time before I go off all half cocked. I should be updating more as things progress but it looks really good right now and I am very hopeful about this entry.
Pauly

PS I hope everyone had a great turkey day and we missed you Tom hope the back is OK...


Welcome back Pauly! looks like you mean business

[Tom Marshall]

Thanks Pauly. Yeah, it would have been cool to have been there, but the traffice was terrible. I think the trip time was up to about 3 1/2 hours one way...

[pauly_the_hitman]

Thanks Pauly. Yeah, it would have been cool to have been there, but the traffice was terrible. I think the trip time was up to about 3 1/2 hours one way...

It's cool man we had a good time hung out eat and played some games and drank a little. So next time we will have to make sure you are there. Anyway I am just waiting for the final draft of the script and I can start planning out the next series of events.
Pauly

[Mike Manning]

Paul Don't think I've forgotten about you... I've been REALLY sick lately and haven't been doing much of anything other than sleeping and playing Call of Duty. I was working on your poster last night and I'll probably finish it tonight.

I thought of a good tagline....

"It isn't a game until some one gets hurt.."

What do you think?

[chaconkevin]

[pauly_the_hitman]

:)
Pauly

[pauly_the_hitman]

Poster is now up...
Thanks Mike

[Tom Marshall]

At least let me get you a better picture. This one isn't a comedy. :)

[Mike Manning]

Yeah.. what is up with that giant comb anyway?

[pauly_the_hitman]

At least let me get you a better picture. This one isn't a comedy. :)
It is representative of times past and the meaning is not in the comb but in a better time and place he was in then. It really isn't meant to be comical. It is like a funny memory of him in a different state of mind. It made sense in my head not sure why it didn't translate. Well if you have a better idea let me know.
Pauly

[Zak Forsman]

why is that comb so big?!?!?!?!

[Rodney V. Smith]

the comb is a little abstract and it's only something you as the writer understands. For the rest of us it's just a comb and a damn big comb as well. I mean WOW that's a BIG comb!

[Mark Johnson]

What's the deal with the comb?

[Zak Forsman]

Tom is mad for that BIG comb, man!!! He loves how it feels on his skin.

[Mark Johnson]

I take it you are going for comedy again this time, Pauly?

[jpsheets]

I'm looking forward to your entry Pauly!

cheers,

Jon

[Jason Sanders]

When do you plan on starting production, so I can clean my place up, lol.

[pauly_the_hitman]

When do you plan on starting production, so I can clean my place up, lol.

LOL...
Actually the messier the better. Think of tom's character. How would his pad look?
I am hoping to start right after the holidays. That gives me a chance to really plan it out and try and get a dedicated sound person. So I will let you know.
Pauly

[Jason Sanders]

Well you wont need any set design then lol

[John LaBonney]

Don't forget to save a spot on the crew for me Pauly!

[Tom Marshall]

Hey Pauly, I'm really starting to put this character together. I think you'll like what I come up with. :)

[pauly_the_hitman]

Hey Pauly, I'm really starting to put this character together. I think you'll like what I come up with. :)

Awesome I knew you would.
I am changing the poster today so I think you will like it better. I am in the process of storyboarding so after the holidays we should be ready to rock and roll man.
Pauly

[alex whitmer]

Hey Pauly, I'm really starting to put this character together. I think you'll like what I come up with. :)

[pauly_the_hitman]

I am still trying to figure out what poster I like better the one Mike did or the one I did... Should I post up a poll or what. PM me your ideas would you...
Pauly

[pauly_the_hitman]

I am trying to figure out how I am going to get all of these films done. I refuse to stress myself out as with the last fest so I may have to cut a few loose this time so mine does not suffer as The Accidental Hitman did in the last fest. Thoughts, complainants, ideas...
Pauly

[ZazaCast]

Man-up! :)

[Jason Sanders]

we got to start early on yours.

[pauly_the_hitman]

I really wanna make sure we finish Unstoppable and What Remains Of Me and if we have time to do mine we will. Since you have helped me out on every other entry for all the guys we need to get yours done.
Pauly

[Rodney V. Smith]

Pauly! I was beginning to wonder what was going on with your production. News? Progress report?

[Susanne G.]

.....if we have time to do mine we will.
Pauly

Pauly, really you have a doubt to do it? No, no, noooooo doubt!

Do you remember this
