One Year Later - 10 days to go!

ONE YEAR LATER - TEN DAYS TO GO!

Since writing the initial plot idea for this little supernatural rom-com on the 7th of November 2012 (161 days ago according to my iPhone notes) we've found a fantastic cast (April, Mark, Rhys, Simon, Tam and Paul) and an amazing crew (deep breath.... Claire M, Julie, Scott, Drew, Sarah, Megan, Sharon, Claire D, John, Sean, Samantha, Anne, Dougie, Katy and Rachael), as well as stunning locations - The Tall Ship, The Sk:n Clinic, The Libertine and two more to be confirmed over the next day or so...

We've also been SO lucky and crowd-funded over £2000 so we can pay our cast and crew from all of the lovely people out there on Twitter, Facebook and beyond who so kindly donated what they could in return for perks from the movie. I am forever grateful. We literally could not make the film without you guys.

So here we go, the final countdown! 10 days left until we're at the Sk:n clinic filming a hospital scene with Simon Weir and Rhys Teare-Williams. I'm feeling nervous and excited. I've made shorts before, and a web series and even a feature film, but the excitement and terror never goes away. We'll be filming our little film about David, a normal geeky guy with the perfect girl, Katy, his perfect match, and he decides to pop the question with the perfect proposal. Thankfully he's got his older brother, wise-cracking, slightly mad, Steven, played with such brilliance by Mark Wood (see him shake his booty over here!) who has always been there for him, to lend his support. The only drawback is that Steven is dead, and he's either a ghost or just a figment of David's imagination. 

And we need YOU! We're filming a restaurant scene in Glasgow in the late afternoon/early evening of Sunday 28th of April and we require 2 guys and 2 girls, aged 18+, preferably with *some* experience in TV, film or theatre, to be in our scene to help bring it to life. Unfortunately it's an unpaid position but you'll be fed and watered, and you'll be invited to our wrap party and our cast and crew screening too, as well as a copy of the final film. So if you're interested email your headshot and CV to contact@sillyweefilms.com - thank you!

When it's wrapped we'll be editing the film, adding in the special effects, having the sound work added, the music composed and once we're happy it'll be sent off to film festivals around the world in the hope that it'll be shown and our hard work will be showcased for all to see. 

We will also be holding a screening in Glasgow not long after it, a private screening that we'll be inviting members of the public to come along to, to support our film and the film industry in Scotland too. More details on that as it follows.

Wish us luck!
