Keep Moving Forward

Suicide friends is still moving forward.  However, some things are being modified to make sure this film makes it to completion.  This film is a very small production, and by that I mean a crew of one person at the moment.  After crunching some numbers I found that this film at it's current state would take around 7 to 8 years to complete.  It may sound crazy, but I'm still enthusiastic for this film and I'm determined to find a way to shorten that time.  I'll keep everyone updated on the progress.

Keep Moving Forward.

At one point the option of having Dana as a stop motion puppet was looked into. this idea stopped to have her look closer to the storyboard images and sketches along with bring a number of styles to the film. This is a rough sketch of what would have been Dana's skull which would have been covered by a silicone or foam latex skin.

set creation continues!!  Furniture and doors painted. Floor finished. now for the little details

Creation on the hospital interior continues. tiles are being placed and once they're all down a clear acetate will be placed over the floor.  so far only the area under the table has this.

Today construction continues on another set for Suicide friends.  Here's a look at the current set in progress, the outside of a hospital office.  After the walls and floor are placed basic furnishing is added on the small set to get an idea of the direction it's headed.  After this the walls and furniture will receive more detail along with any needed props like lamps, potted plants, hospital reading material, and so on.

a few days ago I filmed one of the miniatures for the film at Private Eye Studios.  Like everything else in this film, the city set was created to reflect how the main Character Dana sees the world.  The real world is seen as dull and gloomy with weather that constantly looks like it's about to rain heavily.  This scene will go through further editing before being finished.
