Norm Sanders (fka "Envision") Presents ....

Thanks, guys, and Kyle you're too kind! :)

I just updated the BERLIN thread, so you can see updates on it here: http://www.dvxuser.com/V6/showpost.php?p=1350789&postcount=255


Had the Cast & Crew party last night for BERLIN, and informed everyone there that I would be entering this fest as well ... had a lot of people already tell me they want to be involved any way possible. It's a VERY heart warming feeling to know people enjoy working so much on a project with you.
 
C-R-A-P ! ! !

Just spoke with my father-in-law, and now have three solid ideas/story lines now, one complete with twist ending and everything, but locations are a concern.

Trying to decide between emotionally gripping, or everyday stuff with an interesting twist, or horror/suspense.

Sigh.....

Do all of them at once! There's nothing better for the soul than ridiculously stressful movie shoots happening simultaneously! Yeehaw!!

On a serious note. Do the one that gets you the most excited when you think about it. The one you are most passionate about will turn out the best.:beer:
 
Story is selected now, going with the more emotionally gripping, social one. :) Two possible endings, trying to decide between now.

Should have a title up by tomorrow, and will begin working on a concept poster/design.

This will also be CRUCIAL for the right locations, but I've got a peace about it that it'll be all right.

Casting ... wow, that's going to be a tough one. The part(s) are going to be VERY desirable to serious actors, so hopefully it'll attract some good ones. :)

Oh come on Norm, dont be so humble! ;-)

Craiglist is a good way to net a wide range of people., especially if you explain who you are.

Btw, had a GREAT time at the wrap party! Hubers Spanish coffee is indeed something else!

Yeah, those things are strong (their famous Spanish Coffees). Glad you had a good time, Shawn, and thanks again for coming, as well as lending us your audio gear for the film in the first place! Hope you enjoy the DVD & Poster! :)

Yeah, I know, I probably sound a little too confident in the character/role, but it's going to be a commanding part, and I'm going to have to be more careful than I've ever been about who to cast in it. One thing's guaranteed, I'm staying BEHIND the camera on this one.
 
Yes, Blaine, shirt will stay on. Sheesh, take it off for ONE film, and forever type cast! Lol.

Thanks, Jeremy! Are you in this one? Say, I just realized I didn't get to see RED MOON RISING in the Time Fest, and went to look for it (think I downloaded all of them), and still don't see it. Can you post a link so I can check it out? Didn't see one in your thread either.

Welllll.... it's still in production. We bit off a little more than we could chew and to top it off we had three different schedule problems to add too our all ready complicated shooting schedule... we need a few more shots and we will be done. Don't worry you'll be one of the first people I send a rough cut to, to get your opinion.
 
Well, heck, Tom, I wish I had the funds to cover your travel! :) But alas, we're both cash poor I'm sure. At least we should be able to afford a few brews next week!

Ah, so THAT'S why I couldn't find it ... thanks for the explanation, Jeremy, and look forward to seeing that rough cut when you get it done!
 
Thanks, Michael, wish I was moving a long a little more smoothly than I currently am. This script is KICKING MY BUTT ... very tough to write, and I'm having some road blocks. My problem is I'm extremely linear in the way I do things (write, edit, etc.), so I try to have it perfect every step of the way vs. just throwing it down roughly on the page & refining from there. Just don't know how to break that habit. On the plus side, once I get something done, it's 90% complete & solid, but it's a longer process to that 1st draft.

Also, strongly considering at this point to do TWO entries, as the other idea I initially had has fleshed out even further on it's own, and I think could be an awesome contrasting entry to this one.
 
Hey Norm, it was great to meet you the other day, man. Next time you're in town, let me know and we'll hit up a few more pints of Guinness.


Two entries? That would be very cool man. I say do it! :beer:
 
Wow! Teresa's entry, AmyO's, AJ's and yours! Four so far from the PDX area! And that doesnt even factor in if Patrick LaValley, Steen&Buxbaum, or Ken lead an entry!
