THE MOIRÈ EFFECT - a new short film by Ted Arabian

Great idea! The only pix I have right now are on my cell phone but I'll go back and shoot with my DSLR.

BUT, don't expect much. The places are empty store fronts on Main Street! It is going to be a hoot to blackout the windows and turn them into sets! As you may imagine... the little town of Rochester, NH is buzzing with excitement! LOL!
 
which ever 3-4 days I can get you here! :)

I am thinking perhaps Thursday, May 29 - Sunday, June 1.

I did want to start shooting next weekend but its Memorial Day weekend... may be tough to get cast and crew.
 
hahaha! Sure Tom! Come on out and play. I'll put you in.

............

I will announce the first cast member tomorrow. Off to bed.

BUT, I just bought an Oktava MK012 with BBG, Windjammer and more!!! Thanks to DennisP, down in the marketplace! (I almost bought this set-up today at the Sound Room.... glad I waited!)

I seriously wish I could. I'd definitely be there if it were possible! :)

I paid $320 for the whole thing including paypal fees and express shipping!

- Oktava MK012 (black) with hypercardioid capsule in box
- Baby Ball Gag
- Windjammer
- shockmount

DennisP was awesome to work with.

The funny thing was that I had all of those items in my shopping cart just that morning at The Sound Room (except for the shockmount, I have a K-Tek that I will use). But the price was... high! So I held off.

And then just before going to bed, I checked into DVXUSER (of course!) and took a peek at the marketplace. Saw the newly listed mic and bought it (just in time, too! Dennis had PMs coming in right after mine!)

So... I am pretty excited.

AND, I will be putting my Sennheiser ME66/K6 up for sale if anyone wants it!!!

...........................

Aram.... that is too bad. I am not set in stone on those dates but I really can't go into June. I have to build a set in June. Do you think that you have any days before that?

I am not holding my breath. :)

Just checked this link out.... let us all know how this gig goes for you! Good luck.
 
Thanks Simon! Considering that the mic itself is $219 (for dvxusers). And anyone who has priced out Rycote gear.... well.... let's say I didn't even my wife a chance to stop me from buying it! :) (thanks honey!)

As for the project.... I am very excited. Things are starting to shape up.

I just spent a great deal of time in Portland, Maine location scouting. I actually found a great location! Not a lot of traffic (cars or foot), on an end street in downtown around buildings that are perfect looking (my location is Washington DC). The funny thing is, the location is City Hall and the Police Station! I went and talked to the Police and it seems like it will not be an issue to shoot there.

Now, I just have to figure out HOW TO SHOOT THIS!!!
 
First Casting announcement...

Farruh as ALEX MONREAU
 
He does have a last name. I couldn't even begin to spell it much less pronounce it. And all of his info only uses his first name, so I am good with that. (And if you are going to go with one name, make it a good one... like FARRUH! Love it!)

Farruh is from up here in cow country and is a filmmaker himself. I am hoping that a new relationship has begun. Filmmakers seem so few and far between in this area.

And I have invited Farruh to the boards... hopefully we will see him make an appearance here.
 
:)
I see hes a martial artist. I am a big kung fu movie fan and have been thinking of doing a kung fu short Run Run Shaw style.
