Justin Smith joins as Director of Photography

Justin Smith joins our project as the Directory of Photographer.

He's a freelance director, DVD author and "camera mercenary". He's also a skilled audio/video technican and a talented actor as well. Definitely someone you'd want involved in a short film project.

A Peruvian Panache

This is Milenka...


She insisted that I give her the lead female role but unfortunately I had I to tell her it was cast. Not sure if a Peruvian Panache supports my vision but at least she would have been really good at saying "Abuelo" since her first language is Spanish.

However she has potential for the future as I'm fascinated by Mesoamerican cultures, so should I ever do a film set in South America she's going to be at the top of my list!

The "Uncle Bulo's Abode" set

It seems like its going to be too impractical to film in an actual hut so preparation has begun into building a set for Uncle Bulo's Abode.

Here's an early diagram:

Quite an interesting Chess Set

For years my grandfather has owned this rather ornate chess set which includes rather interesting chess pieces. I thought it would it might make for a more interesting chess prop for the tavern scene.

It even folds up like a brief case!
