The Silver Bullet

I just thought I'd tell you about this, as the chances are I'll be doing a lot of talking about it in the coming months.
Last year, via the Internet, I wrote a feature-length screenplay called Oblivion, which may or may not be getting it's name changed to Midnight in a Perfect World, we're not sure yet. It's being produced in Calgary, starting principal photography on the twelfth of July and wrapping on the twenty-eighth.
I won't lie to you. It's being produced by myself and the director/co-writer, and we're both, well, sixteen. But you know me, don't you? I'm not your average sixteen year old!! And nor is he. But still, we are sixteen, yes, and what we're doing seems a little out of the ordinary, a little bizare, well sure. But a feature-length film is going to look good on our applications for film school, no?
Anyway, loosely and quickly, the story is about five people who find themselves trapped in an underground shelter after a nuclear war. Up until yesterday it was set in 2006, close to home, nice and scary, but we've changed it so as that it takes place in an indistinguishable time and place. The characters basically go mad. It's a game of cat and mouse. It's a graphicly visual feast for the eyes (or at least it will be). It's sort of weird and bizarre. Sort of on the lines. We both went a little madder writing it.
The cast, I don't know, and I've got pictures of some of them, but I think the website will too in a couple of days when the parts are finalised. They're professional actors. We've got a profesisonal casting director and production designer. It's very bizarre. It's a real professional gig. It's all going down.
Now, the SPAM:
The Oblivion Website (http://homepage.mac.com/oblivionfilm)
Go on, take a look if you're interested. You'll be hearing more about it as the shoot starts and the highlight of my day is constantly stuff to do with the film. The nutty little tab we have running will be packed.
I'm not going to ask any of you to straight out invest.
But if you wanted to you could e-mail me....
I'm done.
Sorry.
Done.
:D
