Okay. Here's the deal with what's been going on here at the big OP: we've been really busy lately! Busy as in slowly watching "dull." come to fruition. Yes! It's true! We're making our feature debut with "dull."! It's quite exciting for us, and a tad bit stressful. Not really all that stressful, but enough to give me a headache every now and then. So far the whole process has been moving smoothly. I mean the writing process has been working well thus far.
To give you a taste of how we're writing this I'll give an example: Jared and I have a rap session where we spitball ideas, he also writes a rough outline of everything including notes and dialogue; I take this outline and then expand it, all the while formatting it and writing it into screenplay form; I have Jared read it and make notes (if need be); we continue this process until we have finished the first draft; we take the first draft and have a few people read it, give notes, and then we re-write until we're satisfied; the outcome is the shooting draft. The whole process takes a few months, but has been moving along swiftly for us. If you wanted to know, we're in the first draft stage still. It's nearly done, though. It should be a complete draft sometime next month.
In other news, I'm officially getting a new camera next month. It'll come soon enough that I can start doing tests and figure everything out before we start principal photography. This will give us a leg up with our advent of HD.
I feel better now that everyone (I mean all two of you, that is) knows the game plan for right now. See you next post, where I may slip a few more tidbits of "dull." In the time between posts, don't forget to view our older films and donate money to our cause! Yours truly signing out.
