Can't Tell The Players Without A Program

Sunday, January 29, 2006
Well, I've decided against being in my own film. My wife, who can see right through me, is right: I do want to act. But I've decided against this being my time to do so. With all the crap I have to do, I don't want to worry about my performance being stilted because I had a thousand things to worry about.

My wife and my director of photography are gonna help me cast the film. I consulted with a friend who's wife is an indie director and he's gonna give me leads on where to scout for talent. I figure that we'll go through a couple of dozen actors before we find what we want.

It's exciting to think of my wife helping me on this. She's got a keen eye for details and she's much more organized than me, so it will be a great help.

The few people whom I've told about the film concept have been really receptive, so I'm thinking I'm on the right track. I think that the film will fair well and might even have feature possibilities if we can get it all done in time and it finds a proper home (distribution wise).
