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

:2vrolijk_08:Dang I must say! What an amazing set. Really man thats awesome. I am on my first short ever, I cant wait until I start being able to use sets like that. Great work, I cant wait to see. :)
 
Adam Cultraro (Taormina) stopped by the set today to wish us well and reported that he's got over 70 minutes of Corrado edited along with the trailer. DVXUSER Mike Insane also came by and introduced himself. Mike is a producer/editor as well as a popular DJ here in Hollywood and he's agreed to spin for the big TimeFest screening party we're setting up for the finalists. Justin Durban, our composer (and the composer for the twenty or so other entries that Hermann Witkam isn't doing), stopped by as did Brad Semenoff (our sound designer).

We went past our seven-o'clock deadline and didn't clear Laurel Canyon's parking lot until 10:30 p.m. at which time Bullis discovered his transmission shot craps. In typical Bullis fashion he walked over to the stage manager, handed him his keys and simply said "later". Bullis had planned to drive north to Oakland (what's with this proclivity to head to Oakland this weekend?) for a gig and, thus, we were delighted to have him join us for an impromptu wrap party.

We all ended up at a little all-night diner in Hollywood staffed by surly and yet efficient waitresses and a menu that featured food from all points of the compass along with cold Heinekins. Tim, Blaine and Hudson had already headed for the monster house and we found them nicely toasted by the time we got in. It's 2:28 a.m. and we've finally got the internet running again so I can post this. I just wanted to thank every one of you guys on this forum for putting up with us and we hope that twice as many of you are crashing on our various couches and living room floors for the next shoot.

You rock, Zak. If you're up for it, how about working out a joint SABI / FAT MONSTER sponsored screening party? You guys have the class and we've got the chicks. (just kidding) But seriously, how about putting something together with us?
 
Tim and Mark simply rock. I am in awe of their extraordinary skills and absolute moral compasses that stand shining above the vicissitudes of stench and decay that typify Hollywood. I pledge allegiance to the Monster and to all for which it stands. One Bullis and one beverage for all.
 
it sucks, i'm looking at my calendar and IFHY is going to be taking me to Pennsylvania June 16th-23rd and Salt Lake City 25th-30th. it's likely the timefest screening would be smack dab in the middle of all that, right?

ps - next time you see Matty, will you ask him if he wants to go with us to Big Sur for 2 days in late July? And if he wants his own cabin or if he wants to crash on the couch? AND if he wants to bring anyone? AND that I need to pick his brain about Avatar. AND TO F*CKING CALL ME!!!

Zak, you should come by Luis's place tomorrow afternoon at 1:00 for his big barbecue. Matty will be there along with the rest of the monsters. If you can't make it we will pass on the notes. And if he's doing something lame like going to Kentucky we will take that couch and bring a couple playmates and allow you to pick our brains about Avatar.
 
There is way too much hijacking of people's profiles going on. I'm not sure I can trust anything anyone says.

Oh, and great BTS photos. Awaiting grabs eagerly.

hey hey now, There's nothing wrong with Kentucky. :)

Ashley Judd, Muhammad Ali, Abe Lincoln, Johnny Depp, Gus Van Sant, John Carpenter, etc....

It's a beautiful state and boring as sh*t at the same time. (if you live in a small po-dunk town)

ha ha! The lameness was NOT related to Kentucky! (My ex-wife is from Lousville and I became enamored with the city and state after visiting there.) The critique of our friend was his decision to bolt California for any other destination rather than hanging with us.
 
Yes Zak,
Come on by. This was a last minute thing and my gf and I will be scrambling to get stuff for everyone that is going, but it will be fun.
Just PM me if you want to come.
Luis
 
I will be heading over around 3 Luis. The wrap party went a little late last night. There might be a little incriminating footy of the festivities lying around that will get posted unless I somehow overcome captain stebbins and delete it.

Entire edit got lost.... looks like I'll be finishing this one up in Nebraskaland.

Luis: You are the man. Have a great barbecue.

I'm off to airport! My time here in California has been great and working on the set was a blast. It was great to meet the great folks of dvxuser, finally in person. This is truly where the core of the community lies.

Look back soon (probably tomorrow, considering i have a long drive home from Kansas City) for the incriminating video of last night's wrap party!

Until next time, Fat Monsters. It's been real.
