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

    • I have signed that petition.  Someone was letting off loud fireworks at about 3 am this morning. They woke me up.   I don’t know where they were exactly but it sounded like they were in the vicinity of Dog Kennel Hill.    
    • https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.          
    • Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
