Hello,
I have decided to start a blog for the production of my new film 'Special Glue and Other Stories', so anyone who is interested can follow it's progess.

The story so far...
I have secured some funding from Screen Yorkshire's Low Budget Award scheme to help make the film. They have supplied me with a mentor, Sylvie Bringas, who I have met up with and had a super useful chat with about improving my film making.

I have aquired the talents of sound genius Matt Baldwinson of Leeds bands Tangaroa and A.S.A., surprisingly enough to record and produce the sound for the film. I have found a place to record it and will begin to do so when I have finished auditioning actors for the narrator role. I am doing this largely to improve my own performance, but I am keeping an open mind.

Over the past few days I have been re storyboading the three shorts that make up the film, 'Special Glue', 'Stupid Table' and 'Painting' based on my discussions with Sylvie. I have come up with some cool new visuals that I think will make the films a lot richer.

The script has also had a bit of an edit - filtering out some of the superfluous bits and changing some of the language. I am trying to do more visually this time, that isn't directly described in the audio. I am hoping this will provide more humour, if Lee and Herring's golden rule of comedy is true - I hope to 'confound people's expectations and from thence the humour will arise':)

More soon.

Andy.
