A little run-down…

On March 28, 2010, in Blog, by Adrian

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? :)

Hollywood, Oscars, Vanity Fair and Filming!

On March 4, 2010, in Blog, by Adrian

We’re up for another day in sunny ol’ Hollywood. We’re really looking forward to today and the filming that is being done. One thing that is really cool is that by chance, we are here at the same time as the Oscars! They have closed off quite a few roads and are setting up the red carpet and press area now. I will get some photos :) . On the night we reckon we’ll go and stand outside and join the screaming mob, and then we’ll probably come back here to the hotel room and watch it on TV. It’s really exciting!

There are so many opportunites out here and the project continues to grow. We have a lot of very exciting things to look forward to here before we return to the UK on the 10th. At the start of this trip, we had an interview with AP which kick-started everything. They did a really great article. This has brought forward many more interview requests which we’re all so happy about. You can watch the AP video here: http://www.zimbio.com/watch/dkee31V314_/Jude+Law+Backs+Teen+Effort+Fund+Film/AP+Video+Entertainment+Extra. We’re on the same page as Oscar Nominees! Ahhhh!

One massive thing that just came out was our Vanity Fair story. I just can’t believe that less than a year ago we were in school and now we are featured on Vanity Fair and are in Hollywood – and at Oscar time (well, I know we’re not going. But still, it’s a start!) You can read the Vanity Fair story here: http://www.vanityfair.com/online/oscars/2010/03/jude-law-wants-youto-be-a-movie-producer.html

We’re really looking forward to the Oscars (http://oscar.go.com/) especially seeing as we’re in Hollywood when they’re happening. Sherlock Holmes is up for Art Direction and Music…so best of luck to them with that! I wonder if Jude will be there?

I have lots of photos that I want to post but I can’t, because my phone is not working :( . I will have to get that sorted out ASAP. Anyway, we better get ready to go soon. It is 9 o’ clock in the morning here and we’re going out filming, so it should be a fun day. :)

Sunday in New York…

On February 28, 2010, in Blog, by Adrian

Today we’ve had another tourist day. We didn’t know it was such a long walk from Times Square to the financial district, but we got there in the end. One thing I’m really liking about New York is the abundance of Starbucks. If you feel like coffee…coffee is there :) . It’s all very very different to London though. Much harder to get lost as everything is a grid; no twisty roads. Even so, we’re still getting lost.

We’ve noticed that people are starting to paste up posters of Jude Law’s new film REPO MEN, which is coming out soon I think. Another film we really want to see is Alice In Wonderland with STEPHEN as the Chesire Cat :) . There’s posters of it EVERYWHERE here.

Annywaayy, tonight we might see a film and then tomorrow we’re back off pause and getting ready to do as much as we can for another week. At some time we’re flying to LA, although timings are completely unknown at the moment. We’re really looking forward to going to see Stephen over there and are looking forward to some warm weather too! – New York is too cold. And we’re from London!!!

Nearly time for something to eat. McDonalds, Burger King or Dunkin’ Donuts? Hmmmm.

Marshmallow Dreamcake – FOUND!

On February 27, 2010, in Blog, by Adrian

We found the Starbucks Dreamcake/bar after going into nearly every Starbucks in Manhattan. Yum yum yum. In this picture, Ben is blissfully unaware that he left his wallet in the shop. Of course the Marshmallow Dreamcake is far more important, but don’t worry, he got it back in the end with BOTH dollars inside!

Note the change of style – Ben bought a Trilby so now he looks very – um – what era is it? I’ve got a cap/thingy. Probably less fashionable but it keeps me dry. It is mainly because we both need haircuts and look silly without hats. Maybe we look silly with the hats as well?….hmmmm.

Annyyywaaayy. Enough of this aimless talk. I forgot to thank JUDE and STEPHEN publicly for their support. They have made this trip and this press possible, so we’re so so so so so so grateful. Three other people, without whom we would not be here are Phillip Schofield, Joanna Lumley and Lynda Bellingham who have financially sponsored the trip. But this is just the beginning. The AP article is just the start of the press campaign so we’re really looking forward to seeing what Monday brings.

Tomorrow, though, it’s more tourist stuff…

New York

On February 27, 2010, in Blog, by Adrian

Well, we’re in New York. It is cold and wet but we’re loving it. Today we ventured out of the hotel room for a bit, walked up to Times Square and Central Park and took some photos. We look really tired. I mean really tired. Sleep hasn’t been on the top of the agenda. We did an interview with The Associated Press during the week which got released yesterday alongside Jude’s support video. The response has been incredible, and we’ve been refreshing google kicking ourselves. CBS, NBC, Huffington Post, New York Times, Yahoo News – surely not!??!

Here’s just some of them:

It is so so exciting and it’s still spreading across the news :) . Hopefully more will come of it. We are planning to fly to LA sometime next week to see Stephen and to meet a TV producer out there. Maybe some press as well, who knows?

Right now we’re all sitting in the hotel room, watching TV, trying to relax and unwind. Me and Ben had a very very stressful morning. Let me explain; there’s a Starbucks cake here called a “Marshmallow Dreamcake” (sounds good doesn’t it?) well, anyway, we have made it our personal life-long mission to find this elusive cake. We saw it last time – and now it’s gone!!! How can there be so many Starbucks’ and so little Marshmallow Dreamcakes? :( .

Seeing as it is Saturday, we reckon we’ll do some touristy stuff. I’ll keep you informed RE the Dreamcake.

Jude Law becomes a BUYACREDIT.COM Producer!

On February 26, 2010, in Blog, by Adrian

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!
