Life’s Just Events

For quite a while now I’ve been talking with the others about the idea of creating some kind of event to link in with the film. Much like the social networking that I’ve discussed previously, the event would allow us to meet new people, make new friends, help spread the word about the film, and potentially find collaborators for the project. In the last week or so the idea has become a bit more solid and I’ve drafted proposals for not one, but two different events that we’re going to try and get off the ground. It might be that they both happen, that only one of them happens, or even that neither of them happen: even though the ideas have been developed, right now they’re still just ideas. That said, we’re starting to talk to venues, so watch this space. Details of these events will of course be posted on this blog and our site if/when they come to fruition.

So, what else has been going on? Well, we have been continuing to approach various financiers and right now we have various people looking over the script after expressing interest in the project. Meanwhile, I’ve been thinking about the script and noting down ideas for a new draft and yesterday I had a meeting with Bart (our cinematographer) to talk through some ideas about the script, the schedule, and the shot list. Finally, we now have over 1,000 friends on our MySpace page, so a big thank you to each and every one of them and here’s hoping that this thing continues to grow.
