Soul Searcher: April 29th 2004

Apologies to anyone who tried the Insite link within the first day or so and found it didn’t work; there was a stray space in the address. It works now.

The test screening at the Art College is set for next Friday. I’m very sorry, but I’ve got some programme about Abba on the TV and the sparkly costumes and gaudy primary colours are distracting me.

I decided that the dreaded nightclub sequence was not up to scratch, and am making preparations to reshoot it at the bar of Br-Ian Marr. It’s not just that the locations don’t match. The fact that we were always rushed, tired and struggling for extras when we shot in the Crystal Rooms make the whole sequence weak. The special challenge for the reshoot (and of course there has to be one, this being Soul Searcher and all) is that Ray’s had his hair cut, so we’ve got to get a rug made for him. Still, no-one told me to feck off when I uttered the word “reshoot”, which is something to be grateful for.
