Hello everyone!

Just the other day we signed and sealed the deal on the new version of our Clovis Dardentor adaptation – ah see what I did there? I didn’t simply call it ‘Clovis Dardentor’ – why? Because the name has changed slightly; it is much more exciting now – which is good because so is the story!

We sat down with Lizzie Hopley (the writer) at our usual stomping grounds, ‘The Curzon Soho’ and went over EVERYTHING to make sure the new draft will be perfect! It’s now all up to Lizzie to give Clovis Dardentor what the studios, production companies and our star supporters thought it was lacking first time round. The new direction is ideal and the script should be fantastic!

As soon as it is done (within the next couple of months) we’ll be knocking on the doors of studios and production companies again (some of which are waiting with bated breath) though this time, Clovis will be considerably better dressed…

About time…

Thought it was about time to say HELLO!

We’ve been very bad not keeping this completely up to date, but I can assure you, we have been working very hard over the past few months.

This is just a quick post to say that on Tuesday, I’ll be posting a blog explaining exactly what we’re doing, what we’ve been up to and how we’re going to make sure 2011 is the year in which Clovis Dardentor jumps out of ‘development’ and finally gets a move on!

Speak soon!

Behind Closed Doors…

Don’t be fooled by the silence! It doesn’t mean that nothing is going on, oh no! In fact there’s lots going on back here behind these doors. What we’re doing now is talking to Producers and Production Companies/Groups regarding joining us in order to secure a successful future for “Clovis Dardentor”. We’re being very careful about making decisions as we need producers who will be able to help us take the film to the top! It’s very exciting and there’s lots of talking and thinking and dealing going on. I will of course let you all know what happens…

A little run-down…

Hello there! We’ve been working away for the past week and I thought it was time to post an update… in doodle form:

Okay. Maybe I’ll explain:

1. As you may know we’ve begun the very preliminary steps of casting, i.e. sending our script out to actors to see if they’re interested in the film. We’ve contacted a couple of stars already for different roles in the film, and are waiting back on them. At this time, we just want to see if they have even a little bit of interest in the script, and then all the pieces will start to come together. This can take a while though so don’t hold your breath! Stephen Fry has already agreed to a supporting role in “Clovis Dardentor” as has Annette Badland!

2. We’re talking to quite a few production companies regarding working on “Clovis Dardentor”. To get this film made and seen, we are keen to have it taken on by a company that can make it happen and increase the chances of distribution ten-fold! It’s a very exciting time as we are waiting back on some big leads! We’re also talking to quite a few potential investors. So watch this space!

3. Meanwhile, in BUYACREDIT.COM “Be A Movie Producer” land, after earning the support of Jude Law, Ian McKellen and Rowan Atkinson etc, we’re reaching out to more and more notable figures in the industry to ask them if they would consider ‘being a producer’ on “Clovis Dardentor”. Some very good responses so far from some very big names… but I can’t say anything yet!

4. Possibly most excitingly, John Magennis, the Hollywood TV Producer working on making a Reality TV Show following the making of “Clovis Dardentor” a reality (sorry), is talking to tonnes of people and getting the wheels in motion for the show. Some networks have already displayed an interest, so we’re excited to see where that goes!

… And that’s the run-down of what’s going on, what we’re waiting for and what we’re doing. Kapeesh? :)

Jude Law becomes a BUYACREDIT.COM Producer!

I’m AMAZINGLY excited to tell you all that JUDE LAW has just become a BUYACREDIT.COM Movie Producer! Eeeekkkk. I’m so excited I can barely type. We met him not long ago when he told us how much he loved the project. It was just incredible to see someone like him, of his stature and profile telling us how much he loved the idea. If that’s not encouraging then I don’t know what is!

Jude has been very helpful in contributing his ideas and thoughts into the mix, and he’s really keen to see where the project goes; his exact words being “Let’s see how this goes, and we’ll see what I can do in the future and for the film itself.” :O. To kick-start us, he has filmed a producer support video for the project in which he fully endorses buyacredit.com! Yay! For someone who doesn’t put his name to many things, it is an absolute honour to think that he thinks highly enough of us and what we’re doing to make an exception.

We’re really looking forward to seeing what the World makes of the project now that we’ve got a movie star endorsing it! This is a really exciting new time for BUYACREDIT.COM.

Can’t wait to see what happens now!

Stars, Stripes and Script Re-Writes…

Hello everyone! We’ve been spending this week working hard as usual! Lizzie has been working on the next draft of the script which is set to be 10 times better than previous versions. We’ve had great feedback from some of the finest minds in film and comedy, so we know exactly what needs to happen. Other than that, we have had some very positive interest from a few big production companies and distributors, so we’re very excited to see where that goes.

Now, I’ve mentioned in the last few blogs the prospect of BUYACREDIT.COM going to America. Well, towards the end of this month, the plan is that we will be over in the States publicizing the project. We’re uber-excited about all of it and can’t wait to take BUYACREDIT.COM stateside! When I can, I will tell you if and when it is all going to happen.

That will be soon! Very soon!

Welcome to the Brand New Site!

Hello everyone! Welcome to the brand new BUYACREDIT.COM website. I’ve been working on this new site for quite some time…and I still am as a matter of fact! There are still quite a few things to do. There are more cool features to add and some bugs and problems to fix, but overall, I thought it was good enough to put online. If you spot any problems, bugs, errors or parts that just don’t look quite right, please please please contact me: adrianbliss@buyacredit.com. Any error reports will be so much appreciated. I’m hoping that by the beginning of next week everything will be working perfectly.

On Monday we made the very exciting step of moving into our little production office! Here is a picture of the plaque on our door. It feels very strange to be doing a 9-5, but we’re really enjoying it. Today, however, we didn’t get in because of the CRAZILY crazy weather conditions. Most trains into London ground to a halt and I was stuck at home, as was Toby. Ben managed to get in though.

Anyway, this post is going to be brief because I’ve just spotted a website problem I can sort out. Remember to email me if you see any Gremlins!
