James McClung is working on a new film Frozen In Time. James has had a couple of his scripts picked up for production. Most recently was Abattoir.
Anyway, Dan Evans, the director, is looking for funding and has just launched a site to track the progress and solicit funds, so if you have a few bucks (or pounds) burning a hole in your pocket, you might consider throwing a few bucks his way.
Aren't you the least bit worried that Jessica Alba won't use one word of your dialogue?
It's funny. This actually did come up in our initial discussions about the casting. In a word: No. I'm not.
Besides, she'll have to use at least one word. You can't really get far without classics like "the" and "it."
Anyway, big thanks for posting this, Don, and for contributing! As I've seen with Dressel's Casting Kirstin, every bit helps. I've got a lot of confidence in Dan and the film at this point. The script has been, in the best way possible, one of my most challenging endeavors yet and the story's nuts, to say the least. I made a conscious effort to write a script that's actually about time travel and doesn't use it as a cheap plot device.
Not only did you follow, but you trampled over me and have taken the lead. At the very least, James should allow you to check for typos on the first draft... (And wash your car).
Major thanks, Pia! That was extremely gracious and generous of you.
And thanks to everyone for the general support. I never thought writing for a film with such high aspirations would be as pleasant as it's been, what with all the horror stories out there, but it's been super chill thus far. Very excited to see how this turns out, whoever we get to be in it.
Congrats and good luck with this, James. Hope that this works out for you. Despite a very different approach and set of views, I don't doubt you view this as I would: it's an achievement and reason for a beer, but it's not the determining factor of your future, which you still very much control.
Congratulations! The project sounds awesome. Bet your script kicks ass.
Do you know if they're interested in anyone to play an investor role rather than a straight-up donation? A make-money-back kinda investor?
Hi Heretic,
I registered on these forums especially to reply to your message
In answer to your questions - yes! We do also accept investment roles. There are 50 Shares up for grabs; each share worth £4,000. You will be entitled to a 25% interest rate and a % of net profits. For example, 1 Share = 1% of net profits; 2 Shares = 2% etc. So to work the numbers, if you invested £4,000 and the film makes £3M, you will receive £32,500. In USD, that works out around $6,340 investment and $51,514 if the film makes $4,755,214.
Having shares entitles you to:
Exclusive access to investment news via email/special members area. Visit locations of the film on special VIP days during the shoot and meet the cast (travel expenses not covered - perhaps UK only may benefit from this more.) Have your name in the credits and have an IMDb page. Participate as extras on chosen scenes subject to the production schedule. Attend,with guest, a private VIP screening of the completed Film. Have the opportunity to make some money.
With any investment, however, there is always a risk that you may not recoup your money. Although we will do our very best to get this film successful, there is no guarantee.
If you wish to make an investment, please visit http://www.frozenthefilm.com and manually enter the amount on the payment page. Then email me on dan@eapfilms.com with a confirmation of investment.
Thanks for the support everyone. James is doing an inspired job with the script, as you all can imagine. A very talented writer.
