It was either the banana scene or a Promised-revisited scene. We'd already done Promised, so guess which scene we cut.

And given your reference to "loos", I assume you're familiar with my body of work (does that joke work or is it too "English"? And is there a verb "to loo"?).

Thanks for the comment and kind words.

Thanks, Rebecca. You and that other guy (his name slips my mind for a moment - sorry) really have set a very high bar for the rest of us. I'm really going to try to do pretty much everything within my reach to ramp it up a little and come close to emulating your achievements.

Cheers.

It's Norm. Get it right. :kali:You folks from Vancouver are all alike. #$%#@$%

:grin: (this means sarcasm, for anyone who thinks I'm serious)

Er ... no. I was actually thinking of Ryan Walters (Semele).

But I'm sure you've done some nice things too, Norm.
 
Hey, that camera set-up is the bomb! Where's my Canon handicam at? You sure can't beat Hi-8 for that GRUNGE look. :thumbsup:

Thanks for the nice compliments. Ryan will be very pleased with your kind words.... :laugh:

Yeah - it's an awesome camera. But it's regular 8mm. I'm still saving up for something in Hi-8.

Sorry - now I'm actually laughing out loud, tears in my eyes because Norm actually removed his reply! That cracks me up.

Yeah, I know ... even though it was in TOTAL jest, I didn't want to look like an ass-hat to anyone who may have taken it otherwise.

Wonder when Ryan's going to open his thread ... I've got the skinny on his concept, and it rocks.

Update: 10 March 2007

So as of this morning, we've scheduled auditions for March 17 for some of our lead roles. Received almost 30 applications (some of which were, quite frankly, scary - and not in the "good way") and I narrowed the candidates to ten - any of whom would be drop dead perfect for what I need here.

Amidst a "week from Hell", also managed to get most of the Crew on board and work up a draft budget. It appears that the biggest line item is for hair dryers. Hmmmm.

Associate Producer formally on board as of today. A great choice. And, contrary to what I had been told, she tells me that working with me on this is not a parole violation as long as no minors are within 300 yards of the set. Perfect!

1st AD on board and he's already suggesting a page one rewrite. This brought tears to my eyes because rumour had it the guy couldn't even read the back of a cereal box. Apparently he can. It's a miracle! A miracle I tell you!

Stunts/Weapons Master on board. Only slightly concerned that he sits alone in a corner fondling a rather nasty looking submachine gun, giggling to himself and muttering something about "My Pretty". Maybe it's just that he had too much coffee. Or benzedrine.

Finally, I just heard the first cut of the music guru's sample. Although I'm going to suggest he tones down the harp section, I still think he's a freaking genious. I wonder what he's doing working with me?

That's it for now. Courage, America.

Hey Brandon. When you're working on an entry for the fest, you're working for all of us! Thanks man!

Looks to be a very cool flick! Nice poster

Hey, thanks! If you like the poster I hope you're going to like the short because I'm thinking of basically just filming the poster for 6 minutes.

Yeah - that was the best day of my entire week. Open the door, put a burning paper bag filled with poo on the other side and wait for Norm to come in and stomp on it. It's kinda too easy sometimes, but those are the moments we savour. Forever.

So, in case there's any doubts - I'm sorry Norm. I promise that one day we'll meet up and I'll buy you a nice cold beer or three and we'll actually laugh about this. You're a very good sport - and a really easy target, too. So for the rest of us it's a pretty fantastic combination.

Rule #1: Genuine ass-hats have no ability to control whether or not they look like ass-hats.

Rule #2: When Norm tries a thread-jack, typically he tries to direct people to his own thread. So this is a very un-typical day! Hmmm ...

(and - oh yeah - in case anyone thinks I'm serious when I'm pulling Norm's tail, please refer to Rule #1, above, and then go and look in a mirror)
