Some of you may know about a movie/story that I have been working on for quite a while now.
The story has slowly progressed and evolved as I've grown up, and only really kicked into high-gear during the mid 00s, but now I've finally decided to put a visual together to “show” rather than “tell”.
So after a few months of trying to pin my sister and brother down to help, I have finished a “teaser” trailer showing the basic concept. (Note I'm not a film-maker nor have done media studies, and the budget was under $10 so please don't expect a hollywood-style production!)
The link is here (Turn up the volume, listen to the awesome song, and watch it a few times please!): www.youtube.com/watch?v=aV6lBwli0mc
Again, this is the first filming I have ever done, didn't storyboard anything, no special effects or budget… just a man with a dream. (Yes, there is also an out-takes trailer on my account!)
What I would love is for as many of you to please like the Facebook page, add me on Myspace, subscribe to my Youtube channel, comment on any photos, ask a question, post a reply… anything! I will slowly be adding new images, content, ideas, thoughts, character biographies, story outline, and anything else that I am currently working on (or think of).
It won't be a hugely updated page, so don't think there will be status updates annoying you ever few hours. I'll eventually run out of things to put up there if no one sends/says anything!
So if you are on:
Facebook: please search and Like “The Flinger” (or visit www.theflingermovie.com to be taken there)
Myspace: please visit www.myspace.com/theflingermovie and add me as a friend, and even post a message or comment on a photo.
Youtube: please view (a few times!) my trailer and Feel free to Comment / Subscribe / Like … (please) and turn your volume up, as the song kicks ass!
If you know someone that may get a kick out of this, please forward any links onto them.
Yes, it is based on superheroes, and this is the tagline/logline/pitch:
“High school student Hannah Dutton refuses to accept the fact she gained powers from an experiment malfunction, until she unwillingly becomes responsible for the death of the city's main crime-fighter.
She decides to step up and fill the void to bring down the city's crime syndicate, after family and friends are affected by the latest drug to sweep the streets.”
The more exposure the better, as I'm basically wanting to get an experienced screenwriter to help me co-write a screenplay, and/or an artist to help with a graphic novel.
Many graphic novels have become movies such as; 300, Watchmen, Sin City, V for Vendetta, Kick-Ass, I'm sure they all started somewhere right?
I have actually found an artist who will be working with me to produce several pages for submissions to various publishers, so they will be posted on the Facebook page. But if you are an artist and have a bit of spare time, scribble down a concept or action shot, and I would absolutely love it to bits and post it on the page.
Thanks for your time!
*EDIT*: Heck, the least you could do is post a reply wishing me good luck!
