Meet the Team

The teams have assembled, the scripts have been chosen, and the cast are being auditioned today.

We've been given the scripts to choose from to make our second 8 minute feature. This is the important one, the one which will be marked (Choices, which became Doorways -- was made to teach us how to make films), and which is worth 55% of our marks.

The dates for filming are the last weekend in February and the first weekend in March. We've gone for the earlier dates, since several of us have commitments the following weekend, which makes the timing even tighter -- but this time we have an idea of what we're doing.

We chose a script called 'Heads or Tails,' which was written by Lucy Baker. We really liked 'The Good Listener,' but had reservations about the viability of finding actors who could sign and would commit - in the space of a week.

The team making it --Four Eyes Productions (we all wear glasses) is very similar to that which made Doorways.

The one addition is Daniel Dearing who is adapting the script, with input from all the team. Daniel will also be one of the editing team during post-production, and is finding us the music.

The other four of us are the same team that Doorways, less a couple of people who have joined other groups.

Baylea Hart is responsible for scouting locations and casting during pre-production and sound on set and co-production during post-production.

Baylea will be co-producing during post-production, so with me will have the job of gathering the reams of permissions, release form and various scripts (original, final and shooting) into some sort of order.

Julia Hien is also responsible for scouting locations and casting during pre-production. On set she will take over as producer, and be co-camera person.

She'll be one of the three-person editing team post-production.

Finally, Jaeeun Jung is a Korean student studying English Language and Literature.

Jaeeun is going to be storyboarding during pre-production, will take over as Director on-set, and will be one of the editing team during post-production.

Today we have auditions, so I'll be able to introduce the rest of the team next time.
