My Ball and The Hitchiker in Pre-Production

The short films My Ball and The Hitchiker have entered the pre-production stage. These are two short shorts with My Ball being about a three minute short while The Hitchiker is only about a minute.

With this in mind I plan to shoot the two of them on the same day. I have as a result changed the location in My Ball but this won’t affect the story.

No idea as to when shooting will be as of yet.

With both films being shot outdoors and for the most part MOS, very little crew will be needed, infact I could shoot the two on my own, but I’m sure I get one or two people in just for the sake of it!

Turn update

Alas something has happened with my short Turn. Not much but something. I have done very little with it in the past few months. Last week my DOP my down to have a look at it.

He was expecting it to be awful, as I had told him I wasn’t very happy with it. There were a few lighting and sound issues. My biggest concern was that they were in two of the biggest scenes in the film.

Of course it wasn’t as bad as he had expected but it still needs some work to get it right. I’ve another guy coming down in a few weeks so hopefully he maybe able to do some colour correction.

Shame I don’t have any photos of the shoot, don’t know what happened to the stills Photographer, because there were some beautiful scenes and locations.
