Atlantis - filming this summer
June 9th, 2006
Every year, C. Edward Stewart does an independent film. And when I say independent, I mean independent, and so it has been for the last 5 summers. Even though they have been through varying degrees of quality, you must give him kudos for actually doing it, unlike so many others who merely talk about doing it for years. He has consistently gotten a final product every year, and in doing so, he has gotten markedly better at making films. I purchased all his DVDs, because I feel that we should support each other in this film community and that such tenacity should not go unrewarded.
Last year, I decided it was time I should help out, given that I have some unique skills to the area. It was very fun to be helping out as a worker rather than having to worry about the higher level details of the production as usually happens when our group of friends do a project. Now, it’s that time again — Craig is ramping up to start shooting his next film “Atlantis” this month and I’m involved again for the fight sequences (a fairly light commitment on my part, which is perfect). I must say, I’m looking forward to seeing the end product in the fall. If you want to get involved, you should probably look at the FBN Multimedia website for more details.

Got together with Craig and a bunch of the team to rehearse our fight choreography for Atlantis; the scene where I beat up and kill one of the main characters. I am armed with a net and mace while he is unarmed, so it should be reasonably fun to do.

Aaaah!!! Spoiler alert! Main character killer.

Bought two new things for the fight sequence at the end of the month. The first was a nasty looking mace which should look really good on camera. The second was much, much easier to obtain — a standard run-of-the-mill hockey net which Karen smartly suggested I dye to make it not look like a modern manufactured net. I think the guys who I was practicing will be wide eyed when they actually see what I’m going to be swinging around.
