UPDATE 3/29

Hey everyone! It's been a while since I've updated you all on the progress on "dull." We're still in the process of writing it, in fact, we're starting from scratch. Jared and I both agreed that the original thought and flow of it was that of the short film still and didn't fit the feature concept, so we're going back to the drawing board. This means two things for all of you: 1. delay and 2. a WAY better film that will be definitely worth the wait. True, the delay will be nerve wracking for you (and us of OP), but it will be worthwhile in the end. From what we have planned so far I can tell you that you will be ever more blown away by the film than what we had before. It will address many of our congruency issues and add in a few things to develop the characters more fully. So I ask of you to bear with us and wait as long as needed for us to make this the best film possible. Thanks in advance.

With that said, I would like to mention that we won't be not doing ANY films until then meaning: we have some shit planned to whet (and somewhat appease) your appetite in the meanwhile. Keep updated on our site for we have a new HD cam and sizzling and sparking creative minds oozing on the edge of insanity (of creativity, that is). Film will happen. Just not anything
the caliber of "dull." They will probably be shorts. More news on them in the coming months.

Thanks for reading and adieu.

UPDATE 3/9

Tomorrow, OP will break the near horizon and fulfill our advent prophecy! If you didn't understand that, what I meant to say was: Tomorrow I'm ordering our new HD cam! It's actually happening! This is great news for all you mindless followers out there for "dull." is coming along greatly as well. Perfect picture, perfect story. It's an awesome marriage. We're all excited here at OP for it.

In other news, when we get the camera and all, we're going to do a bunch of tests and cool shit (some of which is planned for the "dull." DVD!). That brings me to my next truth nugget of news: we're going to be a part of Out of Hand Festival. If you haven't heard of it, it's a multimedia festival geared towards content for mobile devices. We have a great idea for a submission that's going to make you all laugh your asses right the fuck off. And that's no lie.

Anyways, keep on the lookout for new content 'cause it's coming like a shitstorm on Tuesday! With that said, I shall take my leave for your anticipation must be matured further before more truth can sate it. Yours truly signing off.

UPDATE 3/3

Hello there, all ye fans of the Overlord Pictures! I'm here today to talk to you about "dull."! We're nearing completion of the first draft! This is exciting for us for our whole pre-production schedule revolves around this script being done. It almost is.

This is good news for us, and even better news to all of you who read this. Why, you ask? Because we're starting our casting soon. That means that anyone who has ever wanted to be in a film can have a chance soon. The only drawback is that you must either live here in Montana, or be willing to travel to our wonderful state for filming. If anyone who reads this wants to get a leg up on the competition you can send us a test for us to scrutinize. This is no joke, for once. We are accepting videos, or written acting resumes (or a really good story). You can choose to do a preemptive test or resume, or you can wait for us to have our official casting call here in Helena.

I encourage anyone who wants to be in a film to submit for we're even looking for extras. Submissions (which are just an email, we aren't professional/have enough time to have a form) can be sent to any of the email addresses located on the Contact Us page of the main OP site. The subject should read something like: "Casting Submission" or "Dull Casting". The body should include a short summary of yourself and why you think you should be a part of our film. Feel free to attach videos or resumes in any format (I'll find the codec/program). Oh, and it's not a requirement, but a plus, to include a head shot or photo of yourself in the email.

Okay, now that I have that done, I can rest in peace and await submissions (hopefully:D). Stay tuned for more info and news. Until next time. Yours truly signing out.

P.S. I forgot to mention above that it's also a plus to include a contact number or email address in the email.
