Slacking
Mood:  lazy

Yeah, words, words, words!  November is still on!  I know I will get the people I want when I get there (as they have no choice).  It's the 3rd sequel to The GoG trilogy, and as I'm still waiting on the original tapes of the 1st film to be sent to me (for bits and pieces I can't do anymore), the DVD of all 3 films will be released before 2012!!!  Yeah, focusing on next year, but before the end!  Yeah.

Tomorrow, I have the day off (as I have 2 hours before work today, but still), and I WILL be writing the basic lines for those in Central FL!

Waiting to plan times with those in Central GA (3 to be precise), HOPEFULLY 3 in Atlanta (1 I know for sure), and after watching it all on tape (times of the scenes), then giving my producer a heart attack when he sees the mess and disorganization I created!!!!  It's amazing I have an outline (that needs re-typing) at all!  All the scenes are in my head, who did "portray" the characters, who I want to portray the characters... (he's Krypto, the Super Dog!  Oops, it's on in the background.  I liked that cartoon.  Should have gotten Streaky when they were toys.  I can impersonate his voice).  Where was I?

Filming at such places (some again) as: Byron Park, Andersonville War Prison Museum, Lake Eola, Lake Mary Cemetery, Lakeland Park (don't know specific names now), somewhere in Atlanta (sneak into a hotel or parking garage), old TARDIS control room even!

Nothing spectacular, low budget, Video 8 camcorder (if the second one works, even better), as I just want something to show (besides my cameos on Solid Ground), and my stories (that I've been slacking on, but now that I'm having problems with Mafia Wars not letting me click on jobs, and the fact I need a new job, but that's after I come back, or even... consider going back to (nightmare) school, but got that zombie story on THE BRAIN, which if things go the way I want now, then it would be a "tie-in" to the film, as another story I need to write...), but it is the only important thing (besides my writing and re-writing) that I have to show (as I really need to find more DW info for my newsgroup, and post since I am moderator).

I have a dream, and it's to make 1 decent DW fan film (showing what I tried to do with the 1st two), with as many cameos I can, for a simple story of what could happen if you just believe!

New DW covers, again!
Mood:  sharp
I do have plans for one "movie" cover to be created, but, I did go back and change 2 people that "portray" two other characters, figured out who else would play the part of Cassie from the film (though I can't get her to play the part; still hoping she'll film another scene someday), she portrays the character, and it works with what I have planned.

The other two, well, they ARE in the film, but, their characters are different. It's the way I think. It works, though I did ask my producer how would his other character be like (just because I want him to relish it), but I do have to work on all the characters, get the filming done, all 3 films finished, continue writing, and of course, try and be happy....

Outline... TYPED!!!!
Mood:  cheeky

Yeah, I had the outline written for my DW film (over and over again), but, it's finally TYPED!  This will then lead to writing the ACTUAL SCRIPT!

Besides the photos that are all over the place (as I put them there), here is the breakdown of what characters I plan to use (SPOILERS!!!!!!)

My versions of:

The Doctor

The Valeyard

The Master

TORCHWOOD

Meddling Monk

and hopefully...

The Rani!!

If I can get yet another friend, it would be nice, since she portrays another character, based on another fan video, with a familiar British actress (sweetie darling!), but, my friend is in the story sequel anyway, as well as another... TORCHWOOD!!!

What a day!
Mood:  happy

I had to work in the morning, and hated every moment.  Went home really fast to change my clothes, get the cameras and stuff, and saw Ryan McCarty at Pizza Hut (Agent Rumble) as planned.  On the way, I got a call from Charlie Pierce (Randall) saying he was going to stop home and pick up a black jacket to "fit in" with the rest of the TORCHWOOD members (as we all were wearing a black coat/jacket.

5 min turned to... 30 or more, and Ryan spent $2.13 on a small drink at Pizza Hut!  Holey crap!

 Charlie and his girl came, and we went to The Byron Prison Park (yeah, there is an old prison across from the park), were there is the GAZEBO!  Filmed sooo many times there, but this time, this is it.

 Yes, afterwards I thought about the close-up shots I forgot about, but we spent about 2 HOURS for just 2 scenes lasting under 1 min each (1 before the intro, and the one after the final credits)!  Got both cameras rolling, but the other camera's battery almost died, and can't get the replacement.  Did some other shots (while avoiding wasps and giant funky bugs, as well as the heat, the sun, and some breeze (which was goooood).

I was sooo tired, I didn't feel like adding another character to this scene.  I know where I'll add this character in at least 2 other scenes though.

Afterwards, back to Pizza Hut, got the Panormous (pepperoni) Pizza (worth it for 4 people), talked about how hard it is to find work, and was tempted to take a picture of Ryan eating the pizza, but he gave me that look (took the shot of him getting the first drink of sweet tea; it was freakin' hot outside, so tiring, but the scene is done)!

I'll have an older scene pieced in with this new one, planning the trip to Chattanooga on Friday, Rock City on Saturday, then one more quick cameo for another friend that I will create another character for him (and in the story sequel).  Thinking making him a CIA agent, since I have 2 FBI agents.

 Another blog after I come back from TN and N GA!!!!

Need a female TORCHWOOD member!
Mood:  irritated

Need a woman to portray a TORCHWOOD member in my DW film! If you're at Dragon*Con '09 or in Orlando next year, I need you!!

The one I chose (again) is no longer working with me, and I sincerely doubt will contact me.  Hell, I have a hard enough time getting people I worked with on the TV show, Solid Ground, to reprise their characters in the film again!

I thought it was interesting when she called me Tom the last time I saw her.  Should have guessed it was good-bye.  May her a-hole, drunken bastard of a husband burn in hell for what he did to her.

Anyway, going again with "3rd times a charm", and hoping to find that right somebody to just film a short scene with (detailed more in the novelization).

STILL hoping to film with some others and receive footage from another!

Disappointing day
Mood:  crushed out

I thought I was gonna film today, BUT, there was a FRICKIN' wind advisory today, and it was 15-25 mph winds goin' on!  My one friend from the TV show showed up (not the other).  Soooo, couldn't film basically 'cause it was just waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too windy, and it would have been nice to film the larger scene, but, another time.  I hope.

Bought some new black slacks for my outfit.  For some reason, my black slacks weren't "black" when I got outside, but DID turn black as we walked around outside, then into the stores. So weird!!! 

Other filming locales
Mood:  not sure
Now Playing: More filming locales and stuff
I keep forgetting I will be at Rock City and Chattanooga Choo-Choo for 2 scenes, 1 in the stairwell at a museum, 2 at a local park, then back to ORLANDO!

There, I will be at the park in Orlando, maybe the public library IF I can get 2 friends to film, waiting for 1 friend in England to film her scene (as she knows, but, there is time), 2 in Lakeland (same place), and the rest in Lake Mary (TARDIS control room, living room (to kill all the club members; it's still a GoG film, even if the 2nd film is STILL NOT COMPLETED), and an olde cemetery (just not in the tall grass, as I don't want to risk the chiggers getting under our skin).

I think that's it. I have to get the script together again when I move back... in April.

I know what has to be done here, and when I get back, see old locales, maybe throw in another shot here and there. So, if you're around and want to be in a DW fan film....

After all that, try to bribe my TV producer here to work on this one, re-shoot a scene with a friend to replace another who did what I didn't want her to do (and edit this one), and lastly my 1st film, at the same time even with another, and then, all 3 of my films will be done! I will sell them to fans (get the specific copyrights down), and I know I won't make money off of these (or what I spent on them), but it's for me and the fans, that's all.

I will then get back to writing ALL the stories, re-writes I keep planning on, and be content that it's all over!!!

Some filming
Mood:  chatty

Well, I was planning to film actually 5 scenes today, but, the weather was cloudy, cold, and gloomy.

I dragged my friend, Ryan McCarty (Solid Ground) to a little area near another location for the last 2 scenes.  It was fine to film there, even with all the cars going by, as it was just to show off our looks (photos on MySpace, and eventually on my other photo galleries).

Then, we shaved our goatees, and made it out to the Air Force Museum to meet our other friend, Dez (Solid Ground).  We walked around, and felt it wasn't too good to film inside, though I have done before, but for SOME REASON, it was FULL OF PEOPLE!  WTF?!

So, as we walked outside, in the coool air, we got to a small gazebo (which I pondered the other day), and thought to just get it done there!

Short scene to tie-in what I did inside the museum before hand, to set the stage for the other scenes, and that's finally done.

Afterwards, a nice time at Applebee's, talking about things, and I know that one day next month (a Sunday), with either the 3 of us (or 4, I can only wonder), finish those last 2 scenes (getting the 1 other one done sometime sooner in a secret for now location), and 1 tonight before I go to sleep.  The rest, all done in Central Fl.

From there, watch the 1st film to get the edit times down (then have my editor work on it), re-shoot scene 1 of the 2nd film (and get help re-editing the film w/ some music), then see about paying SG TV producer to edit the 3rd film.

After all that, work, sell my stuff, write my stories.

This is all for me first, then friends, then fans.  It's all to prove to myself that I can get this done, no matter how it may come out, opinions, and so forth.  It's for me to show that I have accomplished something, and of course, pushing again for the 2nd GoG film to be finished before our 1st GoG Dr dies!  He told me that.  It's been... 13 years now!!!

Am I that boring?
Mood:  irritated

I only got 10 views on my last blog on MySpace.  OK, then how's this:

I want to film in the old cemetery again! Otherwise, it's a park that I used while filming my 1st film. Less likely to get chiggers too!

I will be filming along next week, hope to film with another (and a camera operator) next week, and hopefully with the other 2 actors from the TV show I was on the week after that!

I will be in Rock City on March 16th for filming, then off to Chattanooga Choo-Choo for another that same day!

When I do get back home to Orlando say... April, I will take my time to finish the rest of filming, but, I will need an editor/producer, unless I can bribe the TV producer (gonna try)!

I plan to release my 3 films on DVD in 2010!

I will also begin writing again when I get back to Orlando.  I figured out how an action figure (that represents a character in a story) will now fit in an older story set in New Orleans, whom the character is, and how the whole wibbley-wobbley, Timey-wimey thing works for me.  Kinda.

At least I can say I am trying, even though things keep falling apart right now...

More ideas!!!
Mood:  caffeinated

I figured out that I want to film one scene in the "resturant" area of The Air Force Museum, as I would have a camera operator that time as well!

 So, there is a small area a few feet away from where I will re-film and do another shoot at near where I live, so that's a small scene, new outfit, and goatee!

I will then shave, change my outfit, and re-shoot my one scene, then the new scene (with or without another character).  It's either 2 or 3 of us.  Either way, 3 or 4 of us go to lunch.

If my 4th friend wants to join in lunch, that's cool, but, I need her and the other 2 guys at the museum.  We film her and I first, then I film the other 2.

I will re-shoot the computer scene from now 'til early March.  It's cleaning off my desk, making more B&W pictures, doing a slideshow on the computer, and making enough room (as I do need to continue packing EVERY SINGLE DAY!) so I can put the tripod behind me.

In March, I will be going to Rock City and then Chattanoogaa Choo-Choo!  I'll have someone film me in both places, 2 outfits, and that will be it for Georgia!

When I get back to Orlando, I have a 1-2 shoots in Lakeland (as well as my friend retrieving pictures and software from my crashed hard drive another time).  1 in Lake Eola Park.  1 in front of Orlando Fashion Square, as I doubt I'll be going to FX2009, as I'll be moving at that time in April.  The rest of the filming will be in Lake Mary at The GoG's Lady President's house and backyard/vacant lot 2 doors down.  I don't want to press my luck by trying to film at the old cemetery again (like I used to), ESPECIALLY with the chiggers getting under the skin!!!!  Mainly it's not getting caught, as there is a lot more filming this time around!  Although, the setting in the novelization will probably be set in a cemetery!!  I still have footage from the old films I said I would re-use!
