We're Making a Film About Post Armageddon

God_Delusion

Hi Guy's and Gal's,

The JWB crew is pleased to announce that we have been awarded a grant by the Cyprus Film and Arts Academy to create a short film based on on the Diary of an Armageddon Survivor - http://www.jehovahswitnessblog.com/2010/01/diary-of-armageddon-survivor.html

The grant is small (around $16,000), but includes the leasing of 4 very good cameras, lighting and sound equipment. The movie does need to be filmed in Nicosia, Cyprus and we have five years in which to film it.

We are in post-production at the moment. We have filming experience and are in the consulting stages with a local Cypriot film company. We are putting together the storyboard at the moment and it's a lot of fun.

The plan is to film it and see what distribution we can get for it. It will definitely be screened at two cinemas once cut and approved by the CFAA. We haven't started casting, but if anyone of you is interested and can get to Cyprus by the end of the year, please pm me.

Kind regards,
Carlos

Well I can't get to Cyprus, but kudos to you guys for getting the funding for this.

Will it be shown at the summer ASSemblies worldwide?

i am confused how can you be in post production but not have cast the actors yet?

Wouldn't it be great if we could hijack the drama and project the finish cut of the film!

I can't see it that happening.

The only snag we can see is the post-apocalyptic scenery, although we may be granted access into Northern Cyprus and Nicosia's airport, which was bombed to shreds in the 1974 war. There are still a lot of bullet holes in the abandoned Cyprus Airways Boeing.

The film is scheduled to be 70 minutes long. It will be in English mainly, but some dialogue will be in Greek.

That was a typo. We're actually in pre-pre-production...

There's a long way to go on this project yet. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.

Alreet!

Thats an awesome story dude, how come you haven't done the 2nd part?!?!? I'm on the edge of my seat!

Ciao.

Might I suggest you get in touch with Shane Walker of the River City Zombie Committee. He's in touch with two hundred ghouls who know how to drag their bloody bodies around. They apply their own makeup, too.

Give it a charity angle, and they might just do it!

Maybe there are some folks here who have experience acting in the dramas.
