Production vs Legal Matters

FADE IN:

INT. WILLIAMSTOWN DESK. NIGHT

The first cut of the film is coming along nicely with already 30 minutes edited -- but, of course, there is still a long way to go.

Kendall Osborne is back from his trip, so we're going to resume the last two days of shooting soon.

Our Production Manager Georgie Smibert is hard at work trying to gather people's availability for the next shooting days.

The hardest thing so far about shooting a film is not shooting -- both Producer/DOP Joel Mielle and I, and undoubtedly the rest of the crew and cast, miss the fun of being on set and actually doing the work. The social aspect is great, but all good things come to an end.

Joel and I are aware that once this is all wrapped up, we'll have the business and legal issues to deal with -- paperwork nightmare, but the process is going to be simplified since Georgie and I will be undertaking a Professional Certificate in Executive Screen Production in Sydney in November for two long weekends (with a weekend break in between) -- the course is run by the Victoria Law School and was designed in conjunction with the Screen Producers Association of Australia (SPAA). Hopefully this will arm us to the teeth with legal knowledge and will provide us the necessary resources and professional networking to launch Six Lovers into the world.

Last week Joel and I were also approached by the Victorian Writers' Centre to be part of a discussion panel running in April 2011 on screenwriting and the industry. Whilst Joel won't be able to make it, I will be attending. I'll keep you informed on when and where it will be taking place for those who would like to attend.

And finally, Encore Magazine article on DSLR featuring Joel Mielle discussing shooting on Six Lovers is now available on the publication's website.

Until then, be good.
