Deadpan Hollywood

A soggy, entertaining and dirt-covered journal from the trenches of independent film production in Hollywood. Me, well, you might've seen my name on screen in some movies. I'm not improvised. This is the real, above-the-line reality.

Actors

So last year I posted that our actress was being elusive because of the inefficiencies of my co-producers. Well, six months ago we got the actress and today, not five minutes ago, we just confirmed our male star in the picture. I plan to include very soon a recap of this whole process which has been draining and amazingly frustrating but which is starting to see light at the end of the tunnel.

Independent Hollywood is akin to a very beautiful sunset, seen as you fall backwards on a bungee jump. That’s the best allegory i could find.

Hope the water below is deep enough…
