Entry #4

The cast for the film is nearly finalized. We have a great lineup of people and simply need to have the chemistry auditions in order to narrow it down to exactly who we want. We need the relationships between the characters in the film to be real, so actors with good chemistry is essential. We are also still working on finalizing some locations and have a few meetings with property owners coming up next week. On Wednesday, I was able to meet up with our prosthetic and costume designer Vanesa Furnari. We discussed further details on how the construction of the costume for the giant would go, and agreed on a method of payment. I'm very much looking forward to working with her. The only problem we seem to be facing right now is not having a set person we want to play Peter, which is a pretty big deal.

Today is November 1st, so starting from now, there will be regular updates on the blog regarding the status of how the production of Peter and the Colossus is doing. We have recently finished our campaign on kickstarter.com with successfully raising much of the budget, and we still have a few other people who will be contributing to investing in the film's budget as well. In regards to the cast, we are still in the process of trying to find the right people to play the lead roles, but we will keep you updated with that as we find the right people. The first day of filming is scheduled for November 26th, and there's still plenty of work to be done before we begin production! In the following weeks leading up to the 26th, we will be mainly scouting locations. As we finalize our decisions, I will be posting them here on the blog. This film is beginning to kick into high gear!

The kickstarter campaign has officially launched! So far it is day two of the funding and we have raised $153 from 8 backers. This isn't bad, and I'm quite pleased, but we have a long way to go. In other news, the storyboarding for the film is completely finished, and the shot list is currently being written up. Once that is finished, we will be able to write up a shooting schedule. Also, we are preparing for auditions on October 26th, and are currently looking for a venue. Once the actors have been chosen, we will post them here on the blog.
