FATSO 24 HOUR MOVIE MARATHON PSA COMPETITION

We made this on the weekend. No voting required, but it's worth a gander if you like tentacles: 

The Dangers of Sitting: DVT & YOU
http://vimeo.com/handoutcollaborative/dangers-of-sitting

And that's it for now. 

At last! The last of the Hand-Out Collaborative Make My Movie entries. 

PIGEON HUNThttp://www.makemymovie.co.nz/entry/pigeon-hunt/

This is probably my favourite of what we've got. The story behind Pigeon Hunt comes from my experience part time in retail (gotta pay the bills somehow). I was working a night fill on Cuba Street last year, and we heard gunshots in the parking lot. We asked a manager what it was, and were told not to worry about it. Later when I was heading home, I walked through the parking lot to find the ground covered in BLOOD AND FEATHERS.

So yes, the Pigeon Hunters do exist. I asked a friend about it, and he told me that at Wellington Railway Station, they go in the dead of the night for the few hours the station is closed. Only, there's a lot of baby pigeons there, and it's not worth shooting them. So they just bludgeon them with baseball bats, and carry the corpses off in a black rubbish bag......... Woah. 


Stoked to have Andrew Todd (GHOST SHARK 2: URBAN JAWS) as a potential co-director with me if this thing gets made. And cheers to Andrew for shopping the poster, and to Kim Thomas for brandish weapons in the dark of Newtown with me for the photo.


In other news, I heard the other day I've been selected to participate in the EAT (Emerging Artists Trust) Writer's Workshop starting up in Wellington. There are sessions for six months, and is a chance to have my work critiqued by other writers, better yet, workshopped by ten actors who will be there every session. Should be really useful and will help get a feature draft done over summer if I'm erm, diligent. The question is, which new idea should I use?

Two more Make My Movie entries up for the Hand-Out Collaborative. I think we're addicted.

TROLLDOM

Thanks very much to Lyndsey Garner for getting covered in mud and blood for us... and to Kim Thomas for his photo skillz.


MACKEREL HALL

This is a fun one I came up with while watching Bathurst. It has a good tentacle ratio.

Hand-Out Collaborative has another Make My Movie entry up!

GIRL,DISEMBODIED by Alwyn Dale and Becca Barnes
http://www.makemymovie.co.nz/entry/girl-disembodied/
Please vote, retweet, etc etc. 

This one is an extension of our suitably gory 48 Hour Film Festival entry this year. The feature version will have just as many heads exploding and lobotomies, only in a not shit way. Haha.

There are at least three more Hand-Out Collaborative entries to go up still, we are trying to stagger them so our Facebook friends don't stab us due to constant requests to vote. Look out for them soon.

Hand-Out Collaborative have put another two Make My Movie entries up.

MIDDLEDITCH FAMILY DANCERS
http://www.makemymovie.co.nz/entry/middleditch-family-dancers/
I wrote this one, and it's based on characters created by Chris Stratton and I a couple of years ago. Chris's family own several alpaca at a rural property just outside of Mosgiel, our hometown, and they have always cracked me up (particularly the story about the Mother and Son alpaca's creating another son together. Awkward).
Massive thank you to Jared Bosecke and Lyndsey Garner for joining me as dancing Middleditches for the poster, and to Kim Thomas to driving out to Makara and shooting us jumping around in cow shit.

also JAILMOM! written by my buddy Alwyn Dale is another Hand-Out Collaborative entry worth a look, if you like badass bitches:
http://www.makemymovie.co.nz/entry/jailmom/

Please help us out by flicking us a like on Facebook or Tweeting the link. We'll have a few more entries up in the near future.

The first the Hand-Out Collaborative MAKE MY MOVIE entries has gone up. The Make My Movie project is giving away a $100,000 cash grant from New Zealand Film Commission and NZ On Air for one lucky person/team to make a low budget feature film. To enter, you need to provide a poster, synopsis and logline for your idea.

FELINES: THE AWAKENING was originally conceived by Jen Quinlin and I in one of many rants about cats. Since ours have the potential to take over the world, we thought we'd write a film about it.
