The Dark Side of the Earth: July 17th, 2007

I finished the new draft.
The guys who were meant to be building the Swordsman seem to have drifted away, but Ian and I have a Cunning Plan. Well, not that cunning. An Expensive Plan might be a more fitting description. I think it would be a good idea for me to just spend a big wodge of money on the pilot scene ASAP. Start the snowball rolling and see what happens.
Some of you may recall that, during the dark days of Development Hell on Soul Searcher (which preceded the dark days of pre-production, the darker days of production and the darker-than-dark-itself days of post-production), I served as DoP on a microbudget feature called Beyond Recognition, shot in upstate New York and the Italian Dolomites. Well, the Circle of Life has turned again and tomorrow I fly out to NYC for three weeks to DoP Tom Muschamp’s new feature, See Saw. If his last one was anything to go by, it should be a lot of fun.
