mim pre-production meeting #2
for those of you not in the know... 'meat is murder' is the name of our little video production crew. it really began in 2000, when roy, jim, and i used to meet on a weekly basis to discuss filmmaking, and how in the hell we were gonna get something put together. constantly busy with work, school, and other extra-curriculars, we ended up meeting less and less, until finally the dream was put on the back burner.
through the years, we've tossed around ideas and projects, and when possible, i get back to writing my screen opus entitled, 'meat is murder', hence the production name. a year back, jim signed up for film school at depaul university, where they specialize in the digital filmmaking proccess, and he's made some films for his portfolio. also, providing constant fuel and inspiration was mark, who kept us updated on new technologies and techniques in filmmaking.
but the dream of mim, the production team, truly became re-ignited when someone stumbled upon the 48-hour film project, to be taking place next weekend!
and so yesterday, we spent a couple hours working with sound and overdubbing some dialogue that roy and i read from the pulp fiction screenplay. to make it more difficult, i overdubbed roy's part and he did mine. it was quite amusing, and if mark gives me a copy, i'll post it soon. we also did some microphone tests in order to simulate recording on the go. looks like this is gonna be an exciting time!
we ended the night at red star, where we had a few beers and ate some appetizers. jessica wasn't there, but it didn't matter, because we were busy coming up with some stories for the big game...
