"The Five Worst Days in the Life of Bartholomew Saxton" - Jason Spinos

Jason, these captures are great! I can't wait to see the finished piece. Do you have any web banners I can use to help promote?

You should place the film on Facebook for people to become fans.

Welcome Brian! I'm glad you like the stills! Unfortunately, until the competition is over, we can only promote the film here on this website. Afterwards, though, I'll give you some stuff.

I just wanted to say that I am amazed at how great all of the films in this fest look. I sure picked an intimidating first dvxfest to enter! It's great to see so many people helping each other out. I wouldn't have ever entered without Dustin roping me in for his Lovefest entry Given, and I wouldn't have been able to make Bartholomew Saxton without his help and the help of fellow DVXuser member Gary French.

I hadn't directed anything in over a year, but this fest made me kick my ass into gear and make something. I'm really proud of how this film is turning out, and I can't wait to show it to all of you.

Sorry for the random soliloquy!

I thought I'd post a couple of BTS shots. These pictures were taken by my fiancee who is also multitasking as script supervisor, producer, actress, and composer for Bartholomew Saxton.

Here's Dustin stealing electricity from the neighbors! The house where we were filming didn't have electricity yet (I found out the day before the shoot). Fortunately a kindly neighbor helped us out.

And here are Dustin, DP Gary French, and myself watching playback of a shot.

Finally, a shot of Young and Old Bartholomew, together at last. (Maybe a good idea for another Timefest entry)

Hey man, I am really diggin the look of the film... the BTS of Dustin is funny! The expression on his face is almost like he is stealing power from the neighbors and he is glancing around to see if anyone is looking.

Is that what you are doing.... Why didn't we think of that?


Oh crap... I just went and actually re-read the comment about Dustin stealing power... now it is even funnier... although I do not know why!

Rock on brother filmmakers.... try not to get thrown in jail.... I am afraid that it wouldn't be very impressive to tell your murderous, raping cellmates that you "Plugged into the neighbors power" when they ask, "What you in for BOY!" You might want to practice a scary comeback!

This makes me want to watch even more!
 
LOL love the pic of me stealing the power...though it was staged...still looks funny. I love the shot of the three of us over the camera...infact so much i put it as my PS3 background...i'ma dork i know...

I'm gonna check to see if Indiana Jones is sold out...you going? or you gonna wait till weekend...(i know you're prolly sleeping now...but gimme a call if you and the mrs are interested...or whatevs)
 
Thanks guys! Mark, your comment made me laugh with your realization midway through that Dustin was doing exactly that.

I'm always afraid I'm going to get arrested while filmmaking, at least four times in my filmmaking career I've been approached by cops (Twice shooting The Dustin Rogan Project!) It did not happen on this one though, and since the neighbor was okay with it, I think I'm in the clear (I also gave him some money at the end of the day to pay for the electricity we used).

And Dustin, I'm going to go see Indiana Jones on Friday with Becca's family. Sorry! Although I couldn't go anyway as I'll be at work.
 
YAY!!

I am so glad you put up some of my photos!

You should really put up the one of Bartholomew through glass.
 
I really like the day to day stories so far and the frame grabs. I am really looking forward to this one.

Do you think you will get to the last 5 days before June 16th? Looks like it may be tight.
 
Good looking locations and nice frame grabs!! I enjoyed the early installments of Bartholomew's worst days - I must get round to reading the newer ones.
Looking forward to the film.

I'd just like to announce that my fiancee Becca has become to busy to do a score for this film. Fortunately, the good news is that Herman Witkam will now be doing the score! :)
