On The Road To Skull Hill
We are 21% into the campaign to raise the funds for
Seditiosa, with a total of $5,279, a very good stage to be in, but not the very best.
The very best would be $10,000 right now, and it is up to our supporters to get us there THIS COMING WEEK!
Am I dreaming? Not really, I’m under the spell of positive thinking. Every little bit that comes in counts a lot to raise the amount in the campaign. There are the perks, of course, but you can also contribute any amount you can, even ten bucks… or 5…!
Come to our IndieGoGo Campaign and help us make Seditiosa possible!
We’re at a point of no return with
Seditiosa, and I mean it in it’s most positive interpretation. We are on the road to make this movie. In the next few days we will be busy with some important pre production tasks, one of them is location scouting. I’ll have more details on that development in the middle of the coming week, and by then I’d love to see that we’re getting closer to the 10,000 mark.
The location we are most interested in securing right now is the place where the crucifixions will take place. We have some idea of some good places, but we have to visit them, take some pictures when checking the area, maybe even having our protagonists suffer a little there, maybe a lot. But they won’t be carrying their crosses… at least not the ones we’re planning to have made.
One of the locations is a mountain called
Muela Del Diablo, (
Devil’s Tooth), because of its weird shape.
We are interested in how a crucifixion would look like at the bottom of that Devil’s Tooth mountain. As a matter of fact there are THREE posts already set there. Intriguing to say the least.
They seem to be very tall and maybe too close together but we can’t tell from the pictures. So, a visit to the area is a must and very soon, maybe as soon as next Tuesday.
For that location or any other we would have to get the city to block the area so no cars or people get in the way while we’re shooting scenes for the film. Dani was put in charge For that particular purpose, she will be meeting with the people at the
City Film Commission to arrange the permits for all the exterior locations we will be using. We will be getting all the requirements to obtain those permits and benefits,, we’ll be writing the official letters and all that is necessary to get the job done.
When I said in my last post that Seditiosa is now a
Film In Progress, I meant it.
It is important to underline the fact that regardless of how much we raise at the end, the film will be made. The actual budget is three times more than what we’re hoping to raise. I think I mentioned that before.
There are
Over the line and
Under the line costs. The
over the line are those costs we can deferred for a while, make deals, get sponsors and things like that. The
under the line costs are those we need cash for, and it includes payments to most of the cast and crew, the props, costumes, location expenses, transportation, catering and others.
It does not include the three protagonists. They have a different deal, they are paid on a weekly basis the entire year and at times they get advances.
Dani was recently interviewed for a national magazine where she talks about her work in Theater, Television and films. In the article she mentions that she saw
Justine at a movie theater and contacted Jac to tell him that she would love to act in his films. They got together one day and after trying out some possible work, they made 7 erotic films that were not released in Bolivia. She then mentioned that she’s working in two films that will be in movie theaters, referring to
69 and
Seditiosa.
The pictures appearing in the magazine are from
CruXtreme III – The Callback.
Dani is a public figure because of her work on television, she appears daily in Axesso, a program dedicated to rock music in Bolivia, she’s the main presenter and because of it she a has a large following. She’s always invited to huge events, concerts and music related happenings.
The entire interview is online at:
While Daniela goes around giving interviews, Jac is pretty busy with
69 Année Érotique, and
Double Cross.
He’s almost done with the breakdown and scheduling for
69 and pretty much getting ready to release
Double Cross, it should happen by the end of next week. That fast. There’s one day when Jac and maybe some of his cast and crew will go to the location he has in mind to take those pictures and maybe shoot a teaser.
We’re also setting up meetings with those members of the crew that will make the film look great, like the costumes people and the Make-Up team and beginning to call the actors that will have main roles in
Seditiosa. There will be a meeting with many of them sometime in the next couple of weeks, before Jac takes his plane to New York to be at a wedding, see family, friends and lovers, eat bagels, get a few things for the movies and return to begin the production of TWO MOVIES!
Let’s get to the 10,000 mark by the end of next week!
