12 films in 12 weeks...


Thanks to RB on Twitter for link to this nifty project. US based collaborative project between 4 core guys who act/direct/produce/everything else along with a collection of other talented... talent.

From the website comes their goals:
• to promote creativity and adaptability by imposing a strict once-a-week deadline
• to explore the short-film format from a variety of angles – thematic, stylistic, and logistical
• to meet and collaborate with a large number of actors, artists, and technicians
• to create quality work that represents our interests and abilities, as individuals and as a group
• to work our butts off
• to have barrels of fun

Very inspiring! First movie looks great (although quite sad).

Date night


Had a very 'American' date Sunday night with B - a burger at the only place open (and close to the local cinema) at 9.30pm on a Sunday night, then caught 'Star Trek: 11' - we had the WHOLE cinema to ourselves! Had to run out and find staff to remind them to turn the lights off and pull the curtains open. Ahh, the laughs... anyway, not a bad movie! The extent of our Star Trek knowledge topped out at "Beam me up Scotty" and "Energise" but it didn't matter. Entertaining and interesting. Sylar (I mean Zachary Quinto) made a great Spock and Karl Urban was perfect as Bones (last time I saw him was in 'Doom' and as Eomer in 'Lord of the Rings').
