Good Year

It’s a new year with new projects on the horizon. I think i’ve already said too much to too many, but need to get my nose to the grindstone. Hopefully have a script for Dead Sea Choir soon. Inspiration seems to be picking up again.

We’re coming up onto weekend 3 of shooting on Tech Support, Charles Elmore’s movie. Just looked at some of the first dailies cut together last night, everything looks very good. I think everyone is happy with how things are turing out, and the dolly stuff looks great.

Midnight Vignette did indeed play on mtv2 and it was cool getting to see it, and have it last on the program leading straight into the mtv movie awards.

Poland Next

I was informed Midnight Vignette has been accepted to the Kracow International Film Festival in Poland in their music video section. Pretty cool film festival it seems like…if I’m thinking of the right festival. Is it wrong to fly half way around the world for a 3 1/2 minute video?

MTV 2!

I just heard from the Secretly Canadian people that Midnight Vignette has been accepted to MTV 2 Subterranean. Super super excited…even though I don’t have the channel. Just weird to think that it will be on there. Can’t thank everyone enough again for all their hard work on the project. I’ll post the date and time for airing when I know…The whole project turned out better than I ever expected and was so suprised by the youtube front page thing and now this…couldn’t be happier.

Workin on putting the finishing touches on the Door To Door scripts…more on that soon, and been working with Charles on his feature as DP…

New Pictures!

I posted some new pictures…which aren’t yet easily accessible on here…but you can find them here. This is from the main days of shooting on the video for Midnight Vignette for the Evangelicals…the video is nearing completion but won’t be out for a while yet…but maybe this will wet your appetite for what’s to come…i promise it’ll be worth the wait….

MIDNIGHT VIGNETTE update

matt — Thu, 14 Jun 2007 22:46:54 +0000

had a great weekend of shooting, with pictures to come, but just let me say that the footage so far has exceeded my expectations, and I can’t thank everyone enough for all their help, and for all the last minute help we got.

The short version of the story is that two of the main locations fell through late Thursday night (of a friday and saturday shoot), and then friday the car that was supposed to run over josh wouldn’t start. Luckily, somebody up there was looking out for me as everything ended up working out, and in most cases, better than i had originally planned, but needless to say it was a stressful couple of hours trying to figure out where to shoot, and thankfully things fell into place.

From there, everyone met up around 7:30 friday at George’s salon, and they started hair and makeup, and we finally got shooting around 9:30. All friday we shot in and around Ali’s apartment downtown and in the allyways outside, finally wrapping about 4:00.

The next day we met up at Garden diva to shoot the “party” scene. I knew this was going to be a big scene with lots of people, lots of lights, etc, but thankfully the crew worked really well and fast, and we got everything about when i thought we would, and everyone looked fantastic with their clothes. by 12 we were on our way back to Ali’s to finish the rest of the band’s scenes, and to get the rest of the actors whose schedules are hard to work around finished shooting. By 5 we had everything done. everyone was more than exhausted, but I think the quality of the footage will make up for the couple of long nights.

We’re not quite done, but got a great start, and should be able to take it alot easier for the rest of the shooting. Can’t wait for everyone to see this!!

ALSO MWAM

We had lots of showings, and the movie has gotten into quite a few film festivals, despite not really sending it out to all that many. Very happy overall with the finished product, and happy that people seem to enjoy it. in addition the dvd and all the rest of the finishing touches got finished finally and turned out great i think. Here’s the cover…

email me if you’d like a copy…its purdy and comes with a free moustache
