Preproduction

So recently I have been putting together a budget plan for the film and working on the other areas of preproduction that need to be put together. My hopes are that by the end of next month I will have some sort of kickstarter page up and running. Kickstarter is a fund raising site for creative projects where people donate to different projects to help those with artistic vision who dont have all the means to see it through. As I had mentioned before much of our gear we will be using from the college and for that I am very grateful, but there are still odds and ends that we have to get on our own, so right now I am trying to predict what those will be and how much we will need to raise for that to happen. Also I had a conversation last week with my assistent director and script writer and we have put together a rough timeframe for the script and it looks like we will have it finished by early september. This means we will use the time in August to audition for actors, create rough schedules, and get our actors used to their characters, used to each other and used to the camera. This will also create time for nailing down locations and doing lighting and equipment tests. There are a lot of other things I am working on right now as well, but those are the major tasks that I am trying to get finished.
