Pre production has started and ain't it grand!!

[Rob Ellis]

I've been working on a script for me to shoot for a couple of years now. Helped a lot of folks with their films and learned a lot from giving til it hurts on the set. I decided two years ago that I wasn't going to get involved in the Industry as a grip or AD and work my way up through the standard channel like most graduates of the film schools available here and in California. So I started writing and doing little shorts and helped produce and AD for several indy films and a feature. As you can probably tell from the website and blogs I wrote before, I love to help. I take for granted that many others want to help too, but am often left in the dark when things get to their agenda and difficulties arise from unwillingness to just find what is needed and do that without opinion or attitude.
Anyway, I will give a play by play here on the process of getting monies and crewing up for the shoot, including the rewrites and script updates.
As you can imagine, it's pretty trusting of me to put this much of the script on my profile for you to read and I don't plan on putting up the rest. You'll just have to watch the movie to see how it ends.
But I will tell you this there will be some scenes that tie the world of the main characters to the world we live in and the change that occurs that makes things go haywire has been broached in cinema before and is completely original, as will be some of my fund raising techniques.
That I think will be the highlight of the data of interest here as I know how hard it is to get money (perceivably) for a true art project.
So stay tuned and we will cover those things here.
