Cool. Best of luck. My step brother is a young scriptwriter so i know al about hard how it is to break the industry and making a low budget film that gets noticed seems to be the way forward fro what he tells me.

Best of british luck with it all, sounds fab, and as a bit of a horror buff I await the results with some excitement!!


I could probably do thinly moustachioed swarthy villain, but not sure how many railroads need ruthlessly building in the Forest Hill area.

PM sent, and I have also forwarded the link to my very talented sound recordist and editor friend!

Though I suspect they won't be needed for a while, till a script has been developed.

I DO hope you will spend time developing the script. It is mighty important. Too many films are made in this country with under-developed scripts, and this makes all the difference.

I wish you well!

Hi again,


Thanks for the replies.


The comments about the script are spot on, we will be developing the script up to time we shoot.

You need to have the final draft done BEFORE you go into pre-production let alone shoot. Otherwise you are wasting not only yours but everyone else's time.

Easyrider is the only kind of movie that can be done on the hoof but contrary to myth it did have skeleton script and a budget.


The thing that blows me away about Easy Rider though is that it was made the same year as The Sound of Music. Now that's what I call revolution!

Hi,


The script, as mentioned, is there but still in devlopment, however, any who might consider this as something they want to get involved in would be sent the script as it stands before deciding if it's for them. Any comments on the script will be taken seriously and examined, though I also believe that this could potentially be a truly fab film.

I am getting lots of feedback and help on the script. It will be AWESOME (eventually:P).


It is true that the script would normally be at least 10th draft, watertight etc, before production, but some rewriting goes on in most productions up to and during shooting, I'm sure. This also gives an oportunity to fine tune, adapt with further input of the core crew and local experienced scriptwriters. This is a team made film.


As for being serious, I assure you that I am, but I have no wish at the moment to look through shooting people. There are plenty of places that are free. This is very much open to people, like myself, who are not professional filmmakers, without much experience but would love to have a go, as well as seasoned filmmakers.


This is not a joke, it's not a whim, it's not a con. Any considered errors are but mistakes through lack of experience. All I know is that we are passionate, detemined and that we are going to make a film. And that if you can see fault with it, then hey, get on board and help us make it better.



Regards,

FHF

    • Who was Diana Rayworth, when 'resting from acting'. Her successful career was very sadly cut short following a devastating accident. 
    • thanks Jenijenjen and all - yes, i remember walking or taking the bus from the elephant (where i was working) to Camberwell to get there.  I think Tim - who's still at Franklin's -  was there in those days, and the woman who ran the cafe!  Other food places that i remember fondly are the ones in Neal's Yard (with the Hunkin sculpture that you could put a coin in ) and the basement lunch place at the Tottenham Court Road junction with Hanway Street... 
    • Did you try the emergency number posted above? It mentions lift breakdowns over the festive period outside the advertised  times. Hope you got it sorted x
    • People working in shops should not be "attempting to do the bill in their head." Nor if questioned should they be  trying to "get to an agreeable number." They should be actually (not trying to) getting to the correct number. I'm afraid in many cases it is clearly more than incorrect arithmetic. One New Year's Eve in a restaurant (not in East Dulwich but quite near it) two of us were charged for thirty poppadoms. We were quite merry when the bill came, but not so merry as to not notice something amiss. Unfortunately we have had similar things happen in a well established East Dulwich restaurant we no longer use. There is also a shop in East Dulwich which is open late at night. It used not to display prices on its goods (that may have changed). On querying the bill, we several times found a mistake had been made. Once we were charged twice for the same goods. There is a limit to how many times you can accept a "mistake".  There is also a limit to how many times you can accept the "friendly" sweet talking after it.
