Script is 80% complete, running a little long so I'll probably trim it down, or have an extended cut after the fest is done. It's pretty funny so far, should be entertaining at the least.

Some casting is underway. Shooting dates are Sept. 20 & 21st and possibly one other weekend depending on actor availability.

Title has been changed from "BMM and the Four Holed Button From Hell" to "BMM and the Curse of the Four Holed Button" primarily for comedic reasons.

Script is complete!! It's clocking in at a very long 14 pages, so the plan right now is to have a fest version and then the uncut directors edition later on. Shooting dates are now October 10, 11, & 12, so we'll be working last minute.

Welcome to the fest! I once had a zipper from hell...but I don't like to talk about that anymore.

Best of luck.

Haha thanks, all I can say is that sounds painful!!! For some reason I'm recalling the opening scene of "There's Something About Mary"
 
Updated the front page with a few changes. I also changed the title to "Benjamin Merrymeadows and the Curse of the Four Holed Button". In the context of the film, this should be much funnier. I hope to have some casting announcements soon.
 
Filmed the first scene last weekend. Here are a few stills, raw color, cropped, and resized.

thanks guys!

haven't had a chance to update for a while, but with the deadline approaching, now's probably a good time.


finished up filming on friday (which would have been done a week ago, but my lead actor had to have his appendix removed so we understandable got delayed a little bit)

yesterday I finished up the majority of the ADR work (everything in the movie is ADR'd except for the first scene) and just have a few more pickup lines to get today, which i'll probably do in about 2 hours.

in the last hour i got the film down from ~7:35 to 6:15 or so.

Now it's time for sound effects and foley! Nothing like pushing things to the deadline!


I'll try and post a few more screencaps up today if I get a chance. I decided to switch to black and white, which is looking pretty good.
