8/8/10: Sitting between Production & Post

It is now August, and we have been done with principle photography for over a week. We have gotten some of the extra stuff that we needed to get, and unless I am wrong, we only have 2 things left to film. Post production is on the horizon, and it should be really exciting. A year ago, the script was just an idea that I had, and pretty soon the editing will begin, and my movie will take shape. It's been a long, hard process. Definitely not easy... As an actor, it is easy to take for granted all the moving parts involved in movie making (and I really miss being able to take all of that for granted), so if nothing else I will be coming away from this movie with a new appreciation for the process.

It has been pretty quiet lately on the blog front, in this in between time, but we are moving behind the scenes. I finished the final "Behind the Scenes" Video for Production and that should be up on the website soon. The teaser trailer is so very close to being finished, and so we hope to reveal that asap just to give you a taste of the movie.

And we are nearly at one final week of indiegogo donations. We haven't reached our goal yet, but we have done really well as far as things go, and want to make one final push before the donations close so:

*If you donate $250 or more, you still have the opportunity to play a zombie in a special scene of the movie (which will film shortly).

*If you donate $1,000, you will get to bring a guest to the wrap party for "Blaming George Romero (which is also coming up), which should be fun and delicious.

*Now, here is something new and special. We haven't started to edit yet, so we don't have a final movie. And we don't know exactly when everything will be done... And when that happens, we are not sure where and when we will have our first screening... but... How would you like to come to that first screening when that happens? Here's how that is going to work. People who worked on the movie will automatically be invited... Then, depending on the venue we will give away tickets to all of the people who generously donated to the film. Starting with those who donated the most and working backwards until the venue (wherever it is) is full. So, if you donate as little as $10, you will be in the running to receive a ticket, but the more you donate the better your chances of getting a seat. Make sense? Yes? No? That's okay, it makes sense to me, and I'm the one whose got to know what's going on. What you need to know is, if you donate you may be one of the first to see "Blaming George Romero." The more you donate, the better your chances.

So, go to www.indiegogo.com/Blame_Romero and give what you can, if you can. Trust me when I tell you that I appreciate every cent that gets donated to the film.

That's all for now. Hope to have new stuff soon.

Stay tuned!
