I'm totally chuffed that one of my scripts has been made for the first time. Like most people, I've had loads of emails since joining here from film students interested in filming scripts, nothing has materialized, but finally this one's been made.
The guy filmed it for his class. Just read the shooting draft, seen the end credits and listened to the theme tune. All looks and sounds pretty good so I'm optimistic about the final film. Was pretty interesting to read his version of the script, with camera angles and the like - everything was pretty much as I'd visualised it myself.
Should be getting it in the next day or so, so once I learn how to post it onto the old interweb, I'll put a link up here.
Thanks for the congrats everyone. I've got the first part emailed over this morning but the picture quality isn't really good enough to show at the moment. I've asked him what's up with it and just waiting to hear back.
I might have to wait until I get the dvd before putting it up here.
Well, the quality issue is due to the compression of the file. The file was too big to email so he had to reduce the quality to 50%. Unfortunately, because he's entering it in a couple of festivals and comps I won't be able to post it on the interweb for a while.
I should be getting the dvd in a couple of weeks and I'll let you know what it's like. As soon as I can post it, I'll provide a link.
Got the dvd yesterday and I'm pretty impressed with it. Not really much else to say apart from I'll post a link as soon as I'm able to.
Quick shout out in case the same guy contacts anyone else from here, as he obviously stuck to his word and was good to deal with. His name's Evan Hoffpauir.
Congrats on the production. One thing that I do with the films that I can't put way out in the open, is upload them to vimeo, but as a password protected video. That way, only people who know about it can access it.
Cheers Mike, I'll run it by him. Also, if anyone knows of a good release form on the web that states I am allowing him to use the script but not to own it, then we're after one. The one he sent me sounds a bit wrong.
Ste, send me the release you have (email's in profile) and I'll take a look at it. Could be a matter of just a few odd words, since things like that are usually pretty straight forward.
