"Forgotten" - A film by Gabriel Florit

Thanks Mike! Yes, this is so much fun - but it really has taken over my life. I don't have time to do anything else. Oh well, at least I'm enjoying every moment. Plus I've been incredibly blessed to have found really talented people - my production designer is a great guy, he's doing the storyboards, costumes, set dressing, everything. Amazing guy! Today we sat at the one B&N in Anchorage, I told him what I wanted, and he drew the shot. What talent!

I smile when I think I'm MAKING A FILM!!!!!!!
 
Had the first audition session tonight. That was fun! Mike, my 1st AD, is such a great guy. He knows what he's doing - he's been in auditions a million times. Well, at least a dozen.

I'm pretty sure I got all three roles. 100% about the bartender (Bill) - I'm so glad to have Kevin on board, he's got such a movie star look. Tomorrow we audition the rest, and maybe some more on Saturday. Shooting starts next Sunday!
 
Looks like it's all falling in place (no pun intended Simon). Keep pushing, I'll be watching.
...and please, lets see some of the cast & crew.
 
Yes, I really want to put up a headshot of Kevin. Maybe I'll do a still from the audition. Tonight I audition a couple more people, then either today or tomorrow I have a meeting with the modeling agency in town, supposedly there's a couple models with acting skills. We'll see.
 
Wicked BTS! I love the look that you seem to be creating.
Very nice. I'll be watching for this one.

Can we get some actual grabs? :)

Cheers,

Mike

Thanks! I'll see about getting grabs... I have no clue how to capture a still in FCP, I have to open the .mov up in QT. Any ideas?


Damn that's some good looking BTS! I thought they were screen grabs at first!

Thanks, but no way that could be a screen grab - Brian Adams, the photog, shot film on a Leica. You can see the film grain. The EX1 is a great camera... but it doesn't get that grain...

In CS3 I just go File > Export > Frame.

See if there is some sort of frame export in FCP. I'm sure there is. It exports whatever frame you are looking at.

Looking forward to it.

Cheers,

Mike
 
Gabriel, Really great looking BTS shots! I love the look and feel. This is sure to be a must-see for me.
