What Goes Up...

Today is the last day of shooting on "What Goes Up Must Come Down". I spent all day Friday and a good bit of Saturday doing the edit with Ed Williams who stepped in when my other editor had to pull out - so a big thank you to him.

We'll be doing the rest of the shoot today and then adding that to the edited material already done - which looks really good!

We'll then add some specials and hand it off to Phil Mountford who has again volunteered to provide the music - so its in safe hands. This is particularly important on this short as its basically a silent movie!

The Paper Aeroplane fund raiser is now all booked and ready for 9th May - so please let me know your ticket requirements as I expect it to sell out. I have 3 DJ's and at least 3 acts giving their time for free to support this worthy cause. Well its the Arts innit?

Thats all for now folks!

What Goes Up Must Come Down

Busy weekend last weekend shooting my Filmaka "Hard Times" competition entry "What Goes Up Must Come Down. We shot 80+ minutes of footage with still a little more to shoot. This has to be whittled down to 3 minutes!

As before with Black Widow this was a no-to -very low budget shoot and I would like to thank my volunteer cast and crew for basically giving up most of their weekend to help out. It was hard work but a lot of fun. I'd also like to thank all the people at the locations we shot at. They were all really helpful and went out of their way to help us. I haven't seen the footage on a proper monitor yet but if the stills are anything to go by then it added real value to the film.

So big ups to the managers and staff at Jacks of London Barbers, Broadway Casino, Callaghans bespoke tailors, Simpsons Restaurant, Malmaison Hotel and not to mention my Auntie who let us shoot at her house.
