We've experienced some delays with the costumes for "For A Small Fee", which we're none too happy about. While we're straightening out that issue, though, we've been given the chance to enter a short horror film competition!

The 2006 Eerie Horror Fest wants people to submit 1 -2 minute short horror films that somehow promote their festival. They don't want out-right ads, but just short films that feature their title or logo in a prominent place, at some point.

I've written a screenplay that I think is pretty good, and David Snyder (in the lead, this time) and Rob Kersey will be starring in it, with Corey Reed Smith starring as...well, a dead body.

Erich and I have already scouted our locations and picked up all the props we'll need (except for one that I have to get made up this week), and filming will take place two weekends from now, weather permitting. (If it's pouring, I may very well work it into the film.)

I've also ordered a crane for the camera. It fits on the tripod and should give us a smooth range of motion from ground level up to about 11 feet or so. Not high enough for some shots I want to do in "The Resurrection", but good enough for a lot of shots.

In other news, the second draft of "The Resurrection" is finished, but I'm immediately plowing into a third draft. It's at least a half-hour too long. But otherwise, it's coming along nicely.

IMDB has added all of our cast to the database ( http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0818620/ ), and I'm now credited as the writer and director. We're still waiting for some of the crew to be updated. But we have three great user reviews posted!
