Showdown!

Well it looks as if my Arch-Filmmaking-Nemesis Brian Wallis will be "Captaining" the "Collander Films" "Team". And how fitting (in a very nemesis-y) way that he will be making a "horror" "film". It's also quite fitting that I have stolen his OWN BROTHER for my team! (Cue: Evil laugh)

In other news, I was going to spend this weekend making a steady-cam out of pipes and such, but have since been assigned the experimental "genre". Upon doing some research, (wikipedia) I found that a quick search for "experimental films" returns a veritable who's-who list of filmmakers I want to punch in the face (I'm looking at you, David Lynch). So in lieu of that, this weekend will not be spent making a Steady-Cam Out of Pipes and Such, but shall indeed be spent slaughtering pigs, making lavish costumes, and becoming more pretentious.

I shall also set into motion a plan to DESTROY Collander Films.

Here come the Genres'

Although we need a few more teams to actually commit to the project I have decided to distribute the genres as teams sign up... so if you want a good jump start on scripting and story sign up now!

I am taking a few days away - defrag and rest - then coming back with a vengeance to see this project's success to the bitter end.

So here is the list that you randomly receive your genre from:

DRAMA

HORROR

ROMANTIC COMEDY

ACTION

SILENT

EXPERIMENTAL

SCI-FI FANTASY

The genres will be drawn from a hat and then placed back in the hat - so teams may end up with the same genre.

Check the "TEAMS" page for your genre. It will be posted in your Team Section! Happy Scripting!

Joe & Sugars to provide the kick off "craft services"

A special thanks to Wayla and the crew at Joe and Sugars (located on Adams Avenue in Historic Downtown La Grande - plug). They will be providing all the filmmakers and participants with some morning kick-off coffee and an array a great pickens to get the juiced flowing. The kick off event will be held at the community room at the public library in downtown La Grande. Schmoozing and eating starts at 9:00am!
