Blood & Coffee

forward movement is good. Doesn't help that I've also been helping prep another short in Atlanta. Thankfully I have a good level of appreciation and enthusiasm for both projects and I'm now really having fun with this script.

And now that I'm having fun it's time to stop and get it storyboarded.

Lots to do over the next month in order to meet the shoot date for September.
 
Nepotism (and the fact that I don;t have to pay him) runs deep here at Flyin' Monkey Films: Just signed my brother onto crew to do the fight choreography. He's actually been doing fight choreography for over a year now, mostly onstage, and he handled some of the fight scenes on one of the music videos ("Oh Girl" by Synnnah) and he did quite a bang up job.

Now he's going to get to have some fun with swords and is even buying his own ticket to fly up on the weekend of the fight scene to work with the actors and get blocking taken care of.

This looks to be fun...
 
Glad to be onboard! Sorry I haven't posted earlier, but I'm excited to be apart of Blood & Coffee with Rodney.

I'm at the airport, flight delayed an hour and my novel is on my external USB harddrive... which needs power to run. Of course, being a genius, packed the powercord in my gear bag and I'll give you one guess where THAT is....
 
So a couple of polishing sessions later plus one new improved ending and i think we have a much more dynamic script.

jake and i met this evening to talk shop and ended up getting a solid block of preproduction going. We'll be building the porn shop set in jake's basement and making it a hell of a lot more sleazy than anything we've looked at so far... plus we have more flexibility. Art Department is going to have to really run the show in that aspect. Jake is also a graphic artist as well as myself, so we're going to create packaging and posters for the porn shop. We were even talking about making a gigantic dildo out of playdough to have in the background of one shot...

We took a walk down to the playground swing set where the climactic scene occurs and did some lighting scenarios as well as basic blocking, so that scene is just about completely planned out. Now I'm going to go back with the digital camera and take some photos for the storyboards. it's going to be a cool scene and realistically I think we can knock the rooftop scene as well as the playground, out in one night.

The diner might end up being a dessert shop that I really like the look of, so I'll have to confirm that soon.

Now time to call up the actors and check for availability...

swing set location.... dark yes, but we'll have better lighting for the actual shoot

so we're planning some easter eggs for the porn shop scene. for those in the know, it's a little inside joke, and for those that don;t get it... well you'd just have had to have been there.

anyway, started designing the 3 posters and dvds and the one delivery box full of dvds. the funniest thing is the hardest thing so far is coming up with outrageous names for porn movies.... a lot that i;ve come up with are actual real movies and they have the most outlandish titles.

anyway, if any of you guys have any suggestions for porno movie titles and/or actors, please feel free to chime in. the covers won;t be the same without some truly outrageous name....
 
I got a good one! How about SexArise - The hottest new erotic fitness video?!

Definitely screams porno to me.

Well, last time I went into the 18+ section of my videostore to look for some good horror movies, I walked across some disturbing Porn DVDs. But I think it's not appropriate for this forum :D
