Obligatory Weekly Update

[insert boring week here]

Obligatory Weekly Update

Not much happened this week since I had boring work stuff to do.

On the bright side the Justice League action figure boxset that I ordered arrived at the comic store so I went to pick that up. It's cool, designed by Alex Ross, I could go on but I don't want to betray my geekiness too much.

Yeah that'll do for this week.
Later dudes

Obligatory Weekly Update

More of the same once again.

Sh!t Happens is going well, so well I'm considering branching out into merchandise via a cool little website I found but more on that later.

Nothing has happened with the Flying Tigers this week because there's nothing I can really do with it right now. I need to talk to my advisors [ie my mates] about certain aspects of the project before I can go on but that's no big deal because the longer I take the more money I can add to the budget.

This week I bought myself a new book bag because I was sick of squashing my sketchbooks in my old work bag. My new bag is a Kingdom Hearts licensed product made in Japan, I'd post a pic but I can't find it online and I'm too lazy yo grab the camera but it's bound to show up in a photo some day.

Going bowling tomorrow with Sheppo's fanclub so I better hit the weights now

Obligatory Weekly Update

I honestly have nothing to post here today.

Just more of the same really.

Obligatory Weekly Update

Not much to tell this week.

Bought myself a PSP this week and a copy of Tekken Dark Resurrection which has become rather addicting.
While on the subject of my new toy, the first one I bought I bring it home, charge it up for an hour and a half, turn it on and the fucking thing is faulty, the directional buttons only worked in the up and down directions. So I had to take it back, another hour wasted at the BigW returns counter.
Fucking bad day.
But at least the game is cool.

Both Comic and Movie projects are running smoothly.

Off to play more Tekken or look at pics of hot chicks.
Haven't decided yet

A "Short Film" Right?

THE FLYING TIGERS

a short film

by

Rob O'Brien

Those words above are on the first page of the screenplay for the prototype film I'm making later this year, it's intended to be a shortened version (to be used to raise funding) of the feature The Flying Tigers (yeah same title, same basic story too), I finished a rewrite of the prototype last night and it came in at 68 pages.

Just to keep it in perspective the screenplay for the actual feature is about 95 pages and I estimate it going about 2 hours, mostly because my complex action scenes are described like this:

EXT. SEACLIFFE BEACH – DAY (CONT.)

The fight is well and truly on. ERIC and NOLAN square off against their rivals and the other two COBRAS alternate between fighting BRAD and attempting to help SHAUN and BUCK.

After several minutes of fighting the COBRAS back down.

I'm now rethinking those word on the front page, short film my ass.

Obligatory Weekly Update

Firstly I have officially joined the world-spanning fad that is myspace, check me out here and add me as a "friend".

Secondly, had a good friday night at Reilly's place playing Uno and Poker and making fun of Steveo, all your typical entertainment.

Thirdly, since I need to keep up my enthusiasm, I worked on the Flying Tigers project today. In this case it was a bit of costume testing, and since the only character so far casted is Hunter (played by yours truly) that's who got tested:

Well that's it for now I'm off to hit people.
