First Hand

Hello. This blog is meant to detail the process of creating the zombie film and animation project known as Shuffle. I am sure none of you have heard of it now, but hopefully everyone will hear of it later.

Also, I hope anyone who reads this blog will get inspiration and insight about the process of film-making. Mind you, not the several million dollar film-making, but the I hope I can pay rent film-making.

Often it is the case when you read some director's account of how they accomplished their project or how they got to where they are, they leave out important details, or even entire steps. It is though everyone went to penniless and then world famous without any in between. It is that in between space that is important. It is there that people have questions.

I know that I am waiting a little late to start this thing. I should have done it the day that my compatriots started this whole thing. However, I honestly never expected to get as far as we have. Since I am doing auditions this weekend, I figured it was about damned time for me to get off my ass and write about what I am doing and how it is getting done. This way, when whoever reads this thing decides to do their own project, they will be more prepared than I was (and I am not prepared at all).

I will write about concept next time. Now I just have to figure out how to handle the auditioning process.

Good night.

James
