FAT MONSTER FILMS presents "O2" ... Every. Breath. Counts.

Sorry to hear about the location hit. That sucks. From the comics you guys made with the pics I was anticipating something big, really big. Hope you can recover from that.
 
I probably met Tim Abell here in Dallas. I was volunteering for the Deep Ellum Film Festival when the Soldier Of God group was there. They brought in about 6 or 8 people, all very nice and gracious.
 
We're extremely honored and pleased to announce our propmaster:

Damn... what the hell are you doing fussing around with a little ol' dvxuser fest???? Sh*t! You are going balls to the wall!

GET OUT OF THE WAY! Here comes FAT MONSTER!

Best to you dudes!
 
Things are moving smoothly for us and preproduction is going very well. Did some VFX tests last night with Blaine and Tim with very good results. The outcome was important to determine whether we could pull off a scene in the short and it looks like we're good to go now.

This is going to be a SAG Indie contract shoot and Blaine's developed quite a good working relationship with the guys over on Wilshire (Blaine - we still have to fax over that stuff so if you're reading this give me a call and consider coming over tonight. We can have a glass of Dewars as we watch the papers fax away!)

After our little scare over being bumped out of our main shooting set location by one of the big boy studios we are all locked down and ready to go for May 24-25th. I went by today and paid the security deposit and signed the paperwork so we're all set.

After looking over the many entries it is apparent to me that everyone is bringing their "A" game and this promises to be the best fest yet by far. Rumor has it that the voting this year will be in two tiers with the first vote narrowing down the field to a final ten that will be subject to a second round of voting. IF this turns out to be the case, FAT MONSTER intends to host a screening of the finalists here in Los Angeles at a cinema. I mention this now to get some of you thinking about making a little jaunt to the West Coast for a vacation this summer that will coincide with the event. We'll give you a couch or at least some comfortable floor space and a plate at our table if you can make it. We can guarantee one hell of a party so be thinking about it and as soon as I can confirm the voting format we'll start putting it together.

Just dropped by FAT MONSTER and dropped the paper work (and e-files) off with Tim. It'll go out today.:thumbsup:

Way cool, man. Regarding the HPX, we have two 16 gig cards in it, so you can shoot for a good long while without offloading. It's got great low-light sensitivity and it looks like we're getting real sharp and even backgrounds to pull keys from.
