First Blog EVER!

So uh yeah... first blog ever. Just saw the Green Hornet with Eric for the second time tonight. It is funny. Definitely worth seeing. If you have seen the original Green Hornet TV show you might be a little disappointed. Its just isn't the same.

Eric and I are making a mockumentary  (Fictional movie in the style of a documentary, for those of you who don't know). We are in the scripting and storyboarding phase. We have a lot of idea we would love to put into action but our budget is out of our pockets. We need equipment and people, We are going to try to find some people who would like to volunteer, including camera people, boom operators, actors, directing consultants and editors. It's going to be a non-profit project that we would love to get into a few film festivals to get our name out there.

Can you find love if you are looking for it? Or does it have to find you? Is the question we are asking. We are hoping to travel the East Coast interviewing people (and because we like to travel) and get some real input and advice on the matter. We will use the interviews to support our primary storyline. A young man fresh out of a two year long relationship is searching for love. After being in a bad relationship for two years he isn't sure he even can love at this point. He tries everything from blind dating to online dating and trying to just meet people. He is a nice guy just a little socially awkward and meeting people is not his strongest feature. He decides to document his little adventure with his two best friends. (It's a movie about making a movie yes). All the interviews will be real. We are actually documenting our search for the answer to this question we have. The central plot with be fiction though. We need people to fill the roles of friends, family, girlfriends/boyfriends, dates (for when the main character tried meeting people) and a significant other for when the main character actually meets someone. We will also need people to play some thugs and what not too.

So, we have a lot on our plate from organizing our thoughts and ideas, to getting equipment, finding people and actually shooting this. This venture of ours is looking to take the better part of two years as of now. But I really think we can do it well.
