It's taken a couple of years to get this project off the ground but Accidents Happen is finally in production. The script was picked up here on Simply Scripts (thanks Don), it's no longer posted but thanks to everyone who originally reviewed it. I'm still referring to those reviews as I'm writing the feature length version of this story. Hopefully the short will generate enough interest to get some funding for the feature.

The final budget for the short was $21, 000. Here are some photos from the shoot:

















There should be a teaser trailer coming soon. I'll post updates on this thread.

Hey Martin, this looks fantastic!  I'm glad to see one of my favorite scripts from the site is making the big show.  I recall the character of James Dean being a sneaky, kind of obsessive guy, and the dude you have in these photos looks to fit that description very well.

Keep us posted!


Be excellent to each other

That's really great!!

Even the stills look quality!

Hope it turns out really well and they can find financing for the feature.



I got the exact same gear, but everything I do looks like Americas funniest videos.

Just do a couple football to the groin vids and you'll be in business.

Nice job Martin!

Haha, took some "guts" for that guy to act like that.

For the longest time I thought I hadn't read ACCIDENTS HAPPEN. but I remember now. I think I referred to that guy as an Onslow type and I didn't like how you had the cake appear on the couples doorstep. You must have made some big changes to the script. I like the idea of the guy in the bookstore.

Great stuff!!
