Casting Squabble

After several days of conversation and bickering, the decision is final. The muse is casted

My good friend Nicole Burke is playing Chrissy. Here is a pic, we will have screen tests up shortly

FLOORPLAN-ING

Started on some floorplans this morning!

This is one long shot (opening steadycam shot). We will have a test shoot for this shot sometime this week and post it up.

SCRIPT UPDATE: a few edits, and a little more

So apparently I wasn't done writing, but this is it. Completely done. 

Also I attached page 12, no more script reveals after this. But it gives you a introduces you to the tone of the film.

Soundtrack

So for the student version, I'm torn between Nina Simone or Booker T & The MGS for the montages

yes, its used in the Sandlot. Here are some tracks to get a feel

Needed: A graphic designer to make posters and box art.

So I've decided the cover will be a sloppy painting of a bullseye (with the red center dripping down) with the end of cig crushed into the center. White background

The dvd box label itself will resemble a lean cuisine box, and it will pull out like one as well (slide out, like the black entree) all info will be in same font and presented in the same style etc...

Designer will be compensated accordingly.

Apathy.

A material representation of Chrissy.

The Drink of Choice

Vodka Cola, light ice, dash of lime....mmmm

Lean Cuisines

Chrissy's diet.

BULLSEYE synopsis

Bullseye is a short dramatic comedy which follows Chrissy; a beautiful yet emotionally scarred young woman who is forced to confront her bitter family history with an unexpected neighbor. Over the course of one tumultuous evening, in one apartment complex, one character's lifelong struggle is revealed through heavy boozing, sloppy painting, and vicious hair pulling.

And so the Bottle Collecting Begins

Chrissy loves her Vodka...

So please, if anybody has extra bottles of Vodka (Anything better than smirnoff or Svedka will be accepted) let me know. My production designer would very much appreciate it. Thanks

final script

Yes, finally the final draft is complete. Here are some screen captures of the final draft. WARNING- this is the first five pages, if you want more...too bad, come see the film... if you are desperate give me your email...

Reading a script can be confusing. Here are some tips

INT./EXT. means "interiors" or "exteriors" of buildings

(O.S.) means "off screen", so we don't see the object/person to which the voice is coming from.

In general the piece very visual, implying certain "cuts or shots" via the sentences and spacing. Try to follow along.
