Fiduciary Responsibility
Written and perhaps lensed by Erik Olson. Seeking collaborators in NC and SC. As you know, I've started threads for no less than three Fest entries - and never produced one. I take absolute pride in this record. No excuses.
13 January 2009 - Cast for FR is locked! Thank you to everyone who worked through a long weekend on casting and rewiring my house at the end of a very long day on Saturday. Sucker! I am really pleased with the level of talent we met and had the priveledge to read with. Locking locations after my History Channel shoot in Wilmywood this weekend!
10 - 11 January 2009 - Auditions were held in Concord, NC this weekend. We had talented actors and actresses from as far away as Virginia and South Carolina come read with us. Ultimately, we are the beneficiaries of their time and obvious dedication to their craft. I'm excited to announce them and will ask them to join us here as members and to comment in this thread.
6 January 2009 - Well, it looks like nothing has been happening over the past few weeks if you looked at this thread, so I'll do a quick update. We've been busy filtering through a few dozen resumes and headshots for FR. I have been really happy with the response and I'm looking forward to our auditions this weekend in Concord. If anyone is interested in stopping by, please drop me a line and I'll let you know where we're going to be!
18 December 2008 - Podcast 1 is up on vimeo. I talk about the project, key collaborators and a little bit of the equipment we plan to use on Fiduciary Responsibility.
13 December, 2008 - We've got some new people coming on to the project early next week. I'm excited about their involvement and will encourage them to announce themselves. We've posted a casting notice on Charlotte's Craigslist and look forward to finalizing these roles by mid-January.
Principal photography will be on the weekend of January 30 - February 1st *or* February 6 - 8th, local to Charlotte.
10 December, 2008 - Banners from Matthew!
9 December, 2008 - 2nd Draft is very close to done tonight.
8 December, 2008 - Breakdowns are underway for FD. If you haven't checked out Celtx for your productions, I recommend it highly. For low budget filmmaking, you can't beat the price. If you're familiar with MovieMagic, you'll be impressed with how seamlessly the writing, storyboarding, breakdown, strips, calendar and so on are integrated and how robust the sharing capacity is now. www.celtx.com Versions for Mac and PC.
7 December, 2008 - Here is the General Life Insurance Company website. There will be some bloggery, video and other minutia posted here as the project progresses.
6 December, 2008 - Working toward a 2nd draft this weekend. We have some good talent working on this and I'm confident the script is better for it. One thing is for sure, there are some really gifted people on DVXUser!
5 December, 2008 - Found some old magazine ads from a company with the same name as the one in our screenplay! Hopefully, they're not around anymore, but it's kinda viral anyway! I gotta fix the other one because the you can actually see the ad on the reverse side through the paper. Hint: The word "Festiva" is easily legible. I guess virtually no one has driven one lately though.
5 December, 2008 - Got the call at about one ayem that I might be off to start work on a returning series for TLC starting next week. Must pack jib and new CamShuttle prototype for possible work starting on Monday. A good problem to have.
4 December, 2008 - First draft complete. This ditty came to me over my fifth espresso yesterday. Two hours and seven pages later - with a brief layover for Chinese food - I had the first draft of FR. I've sent it off to be shot down by some key collaborators.
For the moment, that is all!
